Editing FANGS: Skill Pool (section)

==Basic Skills==

Every character knows a number of basic skills, at no cost to your character's skill pool. These skills were learned as play during childhood and polished during adolescence. The basic skills are: Climb, Fist, First Aid, Hide, Jump, Kick, Knife, Local Lore, Perception, Persuasion, Run, Throw, Sneak, Swimming and Wrestle. 

Each character has different ability in each skill, depending on his initial Characteristics. Each Characteristic can add, or subtract from the characters starting ability. Any fractions are rounded up to the nearest whole number.
