Mechanics

All Skills

Every skill in Numina in one filterable list — 189 of them, with group, cost and a link to the table each one comes from.

Every row links to the skill's own table, where its verbal and the rules around it sit in context. Skill names repeat across groups on purpose — four Foundations each have a Holding, and they are four different skills.
