Skills
Skills are obtained by collecting Skill gems that are scattered throughout each level. Skills are extremely valuable treasure that enable characters to perform powerful combat and utility feats.
Once a skill is obtained, the character has it forever and it can be used once per turn, as many times as the player wants according to its rules.
There are over 100 skills divided into 8 schools: Warfare, Cunning, Hunting, Fire, Ice, Nature, Shadow, and Legend.
When a player obtains a skill gem, they must equip it in either an available equip square OR enchant it to an equipped weapon or piece of armor.
Enchanting skill gems allows the player to place the item on top of their weapon or piece of armor of choice and doing so requires characters to spend Treasure of Renown. The primary benefit of enchanting is to free up limited equip squares on a player’s character sheet.
