Skills and Descriptions
Acrobatics - DEX
You can keep your balance while traversing narrow or treacherous surfaces. You can also dive, flip, jump, and roll, avoiding attacks and confusing your opponents.
Appraise - INT
You can appraise common or well-known objects with an SR 1-5. Rare or exotic items can be evaluated with an SR 6 or higher. A failed attempt produces an estimate ranging between 25% to 175% of the item's actual value. Upon success, you estimate the value correctly; failure does not yield any estimate of the item’s value.
Balance - DEX
While Balancing a Character can walk on a narrow or precarious surface. An SR 1-5 allows movement across a surface 7-12 inches wide. While SR 6-10 allows movement across a surface 2-6 inches wide, and SR 10+ gives Characters the ability to move across a surface less than 2 inches wide.
Bluff - CHA
A successful Bluff will cause the target to react as you wish or intended for a short time (1 round or less). A bluff can also mean the target believes something that you want them to believe. A bluff requires interaction between you and the target. Creatures unaware of you cannot be bluffed.
Climb - STR
When Climbing, your Character can advance up, down, or across a slope, a wall, or other steep incline (even ceilings with handholds) at one-quarter your normal movement allowance. A climber’s kit or other climbing related equipment will provide an advantage by increasing the Action Points spent. The Difficulty Score of the slope depends on the conditions of the climb. You need both hands free to climb, but you may cling to a wall with one hand while you cast a spell or take some other action that requires only one hand. You also can’t use a shield while climbing.
Concentration - CON
Concentration is a useful skill whenever you might be distracted (by taking damage, by harsh weather, and so on) while engaged in some action that requires full attention. Such actions include casting a spell, concentrating on an active spell, directing a spell, using a spell-like ability, or using a skill that requires full attention.
Craft - INT
Like Knowledge, Perform, and Profession, Craft is actually a number of separate skills. You could have several Craft skills, each with its own skill rank, each purchased as a separate skill. A Craft skill is specifically focused on creating something. If nothing is created by the endeavor, it probably falls under the heading of a Profession skill.
Decipher Script - INT
You can decipher writing in an unfamiliar language or a message written in an incomplete or archaic form. The base skill rank of 4 is required for the simplest messages, 11 for standard texts, and 18 or higher for intricate, exotic, or very old writing. By deciphering you understand the general content of a piece of writing about one page long (or the equivalent).
Diplomacy - CHA
You can change the attitudes of others (nonplayer characters) with a high enough Diplomacy skill rank. In negotiations, participants may perform opposed Diplomacy actions, and the winner gains the advantage. Opposed checks also resolve situations when two advocates or diplomats plead opposite cases in a hearing before a third party.
Disable Device - INT
The act of disabling (or rigging or jamming) a fairly simple device, to more intricate and complex devices with higher Difficulty Scores. You also can rig simple devices such as saddles or wagon wheels to work normally for a while and then fail or fall off some time later.
Disguise - CHA
Your Disguise skill rank determines how good the disguise is, and it is opposed by someone's Spot skill rank. If you don’t draw any attention to yourself, others do not get to make Spot skill rank. The effectiveness of your disguise depends in part on how much you’re attempting to change your appearance.
Escape Artist - DEX
Your Escape Artist skill rank reflects your ability to escape from rope bindings, manacles, or other restraints. While tougher, you may attempt to escape from a net or an animate rope, command plants, control plants, or entangle spell.
Fly - DEX
You are skilled at flying, either through the use of wings or magic, and you can perform daring or complex maneuvers while airborne. Note that this skill does not give you the ability to fly. You cannot take this skill without a natural means of flight or gliding. Creatures can also take ranks in Fly if they possess a reliable means of flying every day (either through a spell or other magical manner).
Forgery - INT
Forgery requires writing materials appropriate to the document being forged, enough light or sufficient visual acuity to see the details of what you’re writing, wax for seals (if appropriate), and some time. To forge a document on which the handwriting is not specific to a person (military orders, a government decree, a business ledger, or the like), you need only to have seen a similar document before. To forge a signature, you need an autograph of that person to copy. To forge a longer document written in the hand of some particular person, a large sample of that person’s handwriting is needed.
Gather Information - CHA
An evening’s time, a few gold pieces for buying drinks and making friends, and a good Gather Information skill rank get you a general idea of a city’s major news items, assuming there are no obvious reasons why the information would be withheld. The higher your skill rank result, the better the information. If you want to find out about a specific rumor, or a specific item, or obtain a map, or do something else along those lines, the Difficulty Score will always be higher.
Handle Animal - CHA
Covering a wide array of actions, Handle Animal is a useful skill for those working with animals, entering combat with animals, and interacting with animals on a daily basis. Your animal companion may be required to gain skill rank in specific areas of training as well.

You can change another’s behavior with a high enough skill rank. If you beat your target’s Difficulty Score, you may treat the target as friendly, but only for the purpose of actions taken while it remains intimidated. That is, the target retains its normal attitude, but will chat, advise, offer limited help, or advocate on your behalf while intimidated.
Jump - STR
The difficulty and the distance you can cover vary according to the type of jump you are attempting, a higher skill rank is required for more difficult jumps. Distance moved by jumping is counted against your normal maximum movement in a round.
Knowledge - INT
Like the Craft and Profession skills, Knowledge actually encompasses a number of unrelated skills. Knowledge represents a study of some body of lore, possibly an academic or even scientific discipline. Answering a question within your field of study ranges from really easy questions, to basic questions, to really tough questions.
In many cases, you can use this skill to identify monsters and their special powers or vulnerabilities. A qualified skill rank allows you to remember a bit of useful information about that monster.

Move Silently - DEX
Your Move Silently skill rank is opposed by the Listen skill rank of anyone who might hear you. You can move up to one-half your normal speed at no penalty. When moving at a speed greater than one-half but less than your full speed, you must have a higher skill rank to succeed.

Profession - WIS
Like Craft, Knowledge, and Perform, Profession is actually a number of separate skills. You could have several Profession skills, each with its own skill rank, each purchased as a separate skill.

You can practice your trade and make a decent living, earning the equivalent of your Profession skill rank in gold pieces per week of dedicated work. You know how to use the tools of your trade, how to perform the profession’s daily tasks, how to supervise helpers, and how to handle common problems.
Ride - DEX
Typical riding actions only require a very low skill rank. You can saddle, mount, ride, and dismount from a mount without a problem.

Sleight Of Hand - DEX
