Knowledge

Many skills include the ability to make Knowledge checks to remember or know important pieces of information related to that skill. Some skills (like Academics) are applied to a broad swathe of potential knowledges, while others (such as Athletics) might only apply to memorizing a smaller number of things.
Use your base ranks in the applicable skill for the check, but instead of using the normal ability score to modify the check, use your Intelligence score. For example, a check to remember who won the 1980 World Series might use Athletics, but instead of using your Strength score to modify the check, use your Intelligence modifier.
The DC is 10 for easy questions, 15 for basic questions, and 20 to 30 for difficult questions. The GM may make a the roll for you, so you don’t know whether or not your information is accurate.
