| + | All Common Lore skills represent the common knowledge an individual might know about the general information, procedures, divisions, traditions, famed individuals, and superstitions of a particular world, group, organisation, or race. Such information is deeper than mere knowledge of the subject’s existence, and more reflects a degree of familiarity that indicates a measure of dedicated interest in the area. This skill differs from Scholastic Lore, which represents scholarly learning one might gain through study and research, and Forbidden Lore, which involves hidden or proscribed knowledge. Common Lore deals with basic information gained from prolonged exposure to a culture or area. Unlike some other skills, Common Lore has multiple Specialisations (see page 95 for more information on how Specialisations work). The Specialisations for this skill are as follows: | ||
*'''Adepta Sororitas:''' Knowledge of the women of the Adepta Sororitas and their spiritual culture, as well as their highly specialised equipment. | *'''Adepta Sororitas:''' Knowledge of the women of the Adepta Sororitas and their spiritual culture, as well as their highly specialised equipment. | ||

| + | All Scholastic Lore skills represent information that an Acolyte would need to learn in a formal setting or institution of learning, whether from a knowledgeable mentor, an organisation, or even the careful study of rare tomes. Unlike Common Lore, this information is not readily available to the average inhabitant of a planet, but differs from Forbidden Lore in that it is not proscribed from study. Scholastic Lore has several Specialisations (see page 95). These include all those for Common Lore, as even commonly known information can be studied to greater depths. Scholastic Lore Specialisations are as follows: | ||
*'''Astromancy:''' A knowledge of stars, singularities, and the worlds around them, as well as theoretical understanding of how to use magnascopes, astrolithic charts, and the like. | *'''Astromancy:''' A knowledge of stars, singularities, and the worlds around them, as well as theoretical understanding of how to use magnascopes, astrolithic charts, and the like. | ||
