Regional Skills: Gifts of Origin

Regional Skills represent the specialized knowledge or cultural talents a character inherits from their homeland. These are separate from Class or General Skills and represent a character’s innate connection to their roots.

• Skill Allocation:
  • Fighters, Magic-Users, & Thieves: Receive 2 bonus Regional Skills at character creation.
  • Clerics: Receive 1 bonus Regional Skill (supplemented by their Immortal Patron’s blessings).
  • Demi-humans: Characters living among humans may learn these skills, but they must be purchased using General Skill points rather than granted as bonuses.
• Progression & Scaling:
  • Automatic Growth: Unlike other skills, Regional Skills are percentage-based and improve automatically every time the character levels up.
  • Innate Knowledge: Even if the percentage is low, the character is assumed to have a functional, “common-sense” understanding of the subject. A roll is only required for difficult or specialized tasks.
