Centaurback Riding (Level: 6.66; -6% fatigue to mount from bearing a rider. Rank: Novice. Affinity: 100%)

Smithing (Level: 4.11; +8% improved quality of smithed items. Rank: Unskilled. Affinity: 100%)

Associated Attribute: Endurance; -10% time required to smith items.

To an outside observer, smithcraft is all about beating the stubborn out of heated piece of metal until it gives in. To one practiced in the skill, however, it is the art of persuading the metal to take the form it is meant to have. Master smiths can produce exquisite works of completely functional art from base metals, and artifacts of legendary repute from more rarified ingredients.

Armorsmith (Level: 1.00; +1% to final protection value of smithed armor. Rank: Unskilled. Affinity: 100%)

Associated Attribute: Endurance; +20% to final durability of smithed armor.

Armorsmith is a subskill of Smithing.

Weaponsmith (Level: 2.68; +1% to final damage value of smithed weapons. Rank: Unskilled. Affinity: 100%)

Associated Attribute: Endurance; +20% to final durability of smithed weapons.

There is more to making a weapon than just sharpening a hunk of steel; a truly skilled weaponsmith produces weapons which are balanced so finely that they feel like an extension of the wielder’s own limb.

Weaponsmith is a subskill of Smithing.

Storytelling (Level: 3.25; +6% increased skill experience gain for listeners. Rank: Unskilled. Affinity: 100%)

Associated Attributes: Intuition and Charisma; listeners are 36% more likely to correctly recall details of your stories.

Storytelling is an ancient and valuable Skill, used to pass information on from one generation to the next before the advent of writing. In some places, it is still used this way. A Master Storyteller enthralls their audience from the first word, mentally transporting them to a place and time far distant from their own.

Swords (Level: 8.04; +8% attack speed and +8% accuracy with swords. Rank: Novice. Affinity: 100%)

Associated Attributes: Speed and Might; +15% chance to exploit an opponent’s error and +5% damage with swords.

Thrown Weapons (Level: 1.00; +5% accuracy with thrown weapons and +0.2% damage with thrown weapons. Rank: Unskilled. Affinity: 100%)

Unarmed Combat (Level: 1.00; +0.5% accuracy and +2% damage with unarmed attacks. Rank: Unskilled. Affinity: 100%)

Associated Attributes: Might and Speed; +12% attack speed with unarmed attacks.

Whether it is called brawling, martial arts, boxing, or fisticuffs, Unarmed Combat is the Skill for fighting with your hands and feet. Its biggest advantage is that you will never be caught defenseless, but compared to actual weapons, the lack of reach and damage potential requires much higher Skill levels to achieve similar results.

Vivimancy (Level: 12.49; +12 spell power with vivimancy spells. Rank: Initiate. Affinity: 100%)

Associated Attribute: Intuition; +27 spell power with vivimancy spells.

Cost: 200 Concentration, 5,000 experience. Duration: Instantaneous. Casting Time: 4 hours.

Ensoul Object: Animamancy, level 1.

As a Chosen, there is an additional benefit to you: any object which is Soulbound to you and near you when you die will be brought to you when and if you return to life. This ritual can only Soulbind common, uncommon, or rare objects, and cannot Soulbind an object which is already bound.

Casting this spell will cause one or more animals to grow less hostile towards you and your party or Warband. Each target becomes calmer and less likely to attack. The effectiveness depends on the intelligence and Willpower of the target and the spell power of the caster. This effect continues even after the spell has ended, but is not permanent.

The steed comes with appropriate riding gear, though not with any storage containers.

Waves of life energy pulse outwards from you, healing every living creature within 2 yards of you for 9.24 [5 base +40% spell power, times 1.2 Initiate in Vivimancy, times 1.1 Lifeforce Talent] Health each second and harming every undead creature for a like amount. This energy comes at a cost, however: your Stamina is consumed to fuel the ritual. The healing is caused by pure life energy and will not cause scarring.

Cost: 100 Concentration; 10 Stamina per second. Duration: Concentration. Casting time: 10 seconds.

Summon Golden Fawn: Vivimancy, level 10.

Deals 282.98 [100 base +71.5% spell power, times 1.5 Kindle the Hearth-Flame, times 1.1 Firepower Talent] fire damage per second to a target within 10 yards; due to the intense heat and the nature of the flames' source, the target is afflicted by the Soulburn debuff, which lowers their resistance to fire damage by 50% for 10 seconds.

Phoenix Pyre: Animamancy, Beast Magic, Fire Magic, and Vivimancy, level 1.

This unique and selfless spell causes the user to burn their own body, mind, and soul to damage nearby enemies and heal nearby allies. Such is the power of this ritual that, if used quickly enough, it can even prevent a soul from leaving the body of a slain ally and, if the ally's injuries are healed, restore them to life, but the cost for such a miracle would be great indeed. Deals fire damage to all enemies within 30 feet and heals Health, Stamina, and Psyche to all allies within 30 feet each second; damage and healing is based on the amount of the user's life force expended. Healing from this spell is caused by pure life energy and does not cause scarring. This spell can heal Wounds of any severity, if the cost is paid.

Spark of Life: Fire Magic and Vivimancy, level 5.

This spell summons the spark of life into a creature of death. This will consume them from the inside, dealing 137.78 [50 base +67% spell power, times 1.5 Kindle the Hearth-Flame, times 1.1 Firepower Talent] fire/life damage initially and inflicting them with the Burning Life status, which causes them to take 68.89 [25 base +67% spell power, times 1.5 Kindle the Hearth-Flame, times 1.1 Firepower Talent] fire/life damage per second for 5 seconds. Because of the unique mixture of the two damage types, this is affected by vulnerability to either fire or life damage, but can only be resisted by creatures with resistance or immunity to both fire and life damage. This ritual has no effect on creatures that are not aligned with death.
