SKILLS

skills - show a list of skills your character knows or will know

 The SKILLS command is used to display your character's list of available
 proficiencies or spells.  They are listed in order of level, with spell point
 cost (for spells)listed where applicable.

 Spells are of a magical nature and require the use of spell points and possibly
 reagents to cast them.  Proficiencies are the more 'physical' skills such as
 weapons skills, tracking, stealing and the like.

 There are several different schools among which the proficiencies and spells
 are divided. Schools are a way of classifying the tangible aspects of a spell
 or proficiency, and while some spells may seem to overlap schools, there is
 generally one main school in which they fit the best.

 If a character receives a spell or proficiency from more than one class, that
 character receives a bonus of skillpower for that skill, at the rate of +5
 skillpower for each class giving the redundant skill.

 This command will display all of the proficiencies and spells
 received by a Adventurer who went the specified class path. In addition, a list
 of all stat modifiers received from the chosen class' primary attributes is
 provided. Any skills that redundant within that classpath will have the amount
 of passive skillpower noted, as well as the benefit gained.
