-**Currently ​these skills are unavailable ​to view or purchase.**+===Computer coding === 
 +You are adept at using computers. Whether trying to search through information,​ use it to talk to other devices, or simply make a pretty picture, if it uses a computer you can handle it. 
 + 
 +===Astronomy=== 
 +To most people, the stars are a mystic backdrop to the nights sky, but you have more than a passing familiarity with them. While you may not remember the details of the underlying physics combined with what you can see up there to form a pretty accurate understanding of the sky above. 
 + 
 +===Non-verbal communication=== 
 +Words are great for talking to people, but sometimes animals are more easy to get on with. Other times you just need to give someone a hint without talking out loud. If a situation requires communicating with something else without words, you're the one for the job. 
 + 
 +===Neurology=== 
 +The nervous system is a complex and delicate instrument, allowing the brain to control the body with precision and to receive information. You have some understanding of it, at least to the point of being able to tell what does what, being able to notice irregularities (and fix them, given the correct tools). 
 + 
 +===Cybernetics=== 
 +Flesh has its limitations,​ and there are those who wish to surpass them. You can fashion limbs of metal with greater strength and durability than those of flesh, as well as repair them should they be damaged. However, your understanding ends where flesh begins. 
 + 
 +===Expert Animal Training=== 
 +Simple commands can often get the job done while you're there, but to get an animal to perform complex tasks, or continue to work in your absence, requires specialised training. 
 + 
 +===Civic Engineering=== 
 + 
 +Individual buildings can certainly be impressive, but it takes serious planning and knowledge to let a city function as a whole. Laying down routes for transport, power, water and other coordinated utilities on a wide scale is a task only for those as experienced as yourself. 
 + 
 +===Farming=== 
 +While scavenging may be enough to get by, sometimes it's nice for things to be a little more reliable. Whether it be for clothes on your back, or food for your belly, you know how to keep produce coming, whether it be blistering summer sun, or deepest winter. 
 + 
 +===Combat Tactics=== 
 + 
 +Your experience of combat situations runs so deep you are adept at recognising and controlling the whole battlefield. You are able to direct large groups of people to form a cohesive force. You can also raise the combat effectiveness of any small group with your well placed advice. 
 + 
 +===Vehicle Maintenance=== 
 +You may not know how to drive one of these things, but you sure can make it run. Your skills ​extend to any form of transportation at any level of technology; from bicycles to cars to planes, though you are still restricted by the materials you have to hand. 
 + 
 +===Investigation and Forensics=== 
 +An eye for detail, looking out for the tiniest thing out of place, ​or a stray item that could be your next clue. Whether you're unravelling the next big conspiracy, or finding out who stole the last biscuit, you're the one with the skills to get to the bottom of things. 
 + 
 +===Exotic Tech Use=== 
 + 
 +You are rapidly able to come to grips with even the most esoteric of technology. You have a intuitive understanding of how to connect the flux modulator to the quantum polarity diode to prevent things going haywire. Others may struggle to interact with technology that is sufficiently advanced. 
 + 
 +//- Note: "​Sufficiently advanced"​ should be loosely interpreted as tech not currently found on Earth// 
 + 
 +===Exotic Weapon Use=== 
 + 
 +You are able to apply your combat knowledge to even the most esoteric of weapons. Not only are you aware of how to get even the most sophisticated weapons to fire correctly, you are capable of using them to their maximum combat potential. Others may struggle to interact with weaponry that is sufficiently advanced. 
 + 
 +//- Note: "​Sufficiently advanced"​ should be loosely interpreted as weaponry not currently found on Earth// 
 + 
 + 
 +===Stealth=== 
 + 
 +You are remarkably proficient at hiding yourself or objects belonging to you. You are by no means invisible or undetectable but you are much less likely to raise an alarm or be identified when you don't want to be. 
 + 
 +===Manipulation=== 
 +Any fool with a weapon can get someone to do their dirty work, but only a true artist can make someone //want// to. You know just what to say in order to get someone to do a dangerous task for you, while convincing them it was their idea and you're doing them a favour by giving a helping hand. 
 + 
 +//- Note: This will not work on PCs, and will generally only be effective in turnsheets, not during sessions//​ 
 + 
 +===Advertising=== 
 +As anyone will tell you, the key to success is knowing how to promote yourself. Be it a business you're running, or simply your own self promotion, you know how to grab peoples attention. You're sure to be able to get people chatting about the things you want them talking about. 
 + 
 +===Legislation=== 
 + 
 +You have intricate understand concerning the formation of contracts and codes of law. You are able to write them easily and have them contains as many or as little cunning loopholes as you wish. You are also able to scour those written by other people. Of course all of these documents will have only have power if you have means of backing them up. 
 + 
 +===Business Acumen=== 
 + 
 +You have a talent for making contacts and facilitating trade. You are easily able to make business contacts even in unfamiliar markets. You also tend to get more favourable exchanges than your peers. Any businesses you own are easily transformed into profitable ventures.
