Skills

Skills are proficiencies that your character gains over the course of your quest(s).

Each Skill has a Skill Tree, consisting of ten Perks that you can obtain over the course of leveling up that skill. Each Skill has a maximum of Level 10, with each level having 100 XP for that Skill. Certain actions gain you Skill XP. You gain one Skill Perk Point per Skill Level Up.

You also begin the game with ten Skill Points to distribute among the Skill Trees. These represent your experience prior to the events of the game.

You can have any number of perks from any number of skill trees; however, you can only be gaining XP for up to three different Skill Trees at any one time. Meaning, you must switch around the currently 'equipped' skill trees to gain skill in other trees than the previously equipped ones. You also gain +1 to rolls related to these Skills per level in that skill. Some races have basic bonuses to certain skills.

There are Primary Skills, and Secondary Skills. You have all Primary Skills active at all times, while you can only have up to three secondary skills ( marked with * ) to level at any one time.
