Skills
Skills are learned abilities. As you gain experience, your skills will improve, unlike your base statistics (in most cases). All skills have a skill level, expressed as a percentage. The higher the skill level, the more likely you are to succeed at using that skill. Tag Skills define what skills you are especially good at. You will get an immediate +20% to all three of your tag skills, and you will get twice the improvement when you spend skill points in them. During your travels you may also find special books that will further increase your skills.
Some skills are automatically used when you do something, namely all combat skills or passive skills like Barter . Other skills require that you actively use them. All active skills require at least 3 available Action Points to perform.
