The
scholar skill
represents a character’s knowledge in a specific field of study. In many cases
it represents “book learning”, academic facts and figures that the character
has memorized. Scholars are adept at using research libraries and remembering
or locating obscure facts. But it can also represent knowledge that the
character has picked up through experience and being knowledgeable in areas that
other people might deem “trivial”. Players may purchase the scholar skill
multiple times to represent additional areas of expertise for their character. Limitations
can be about as broad as the subjects in which universities typically offer
undergraduate degrees. A narrower focus within a field would normally involve a
specialization but isn’t required. If the player wishes to limit his
character’s knowledge to just a narrowly defined field she does not have to
take a broad limitation and then apply a specialization.
