=Lore= Lore represents a study of some body of lore, possibly an academic or even scientific discipline. Every Lore skill works the same way, they only apply to a different field of study. Answering a question within your field of study has a DC of 10 (for really easy questions), 15 (for basic questions), or 20 to 30 (for really tough questions). For every 5 points by which your check result exceeds the DC, you recall another piece of useful information. ==General== {| border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" style="text-align: left" !Ability |Intelligence |- !Action |Instantaneous |- !Armor Penalty |None |- !Untrained |Yes |- !Concentration |No |} '''Proficiency:''' Other Lore skill '''Description:''' Your general knowledge allows you to know a lot of things on many different topics but with very limited specific information.
