Lore

Lore allows a character to identify unknown magic items.

  • Classes: all
  • Check: A roll against an unidentified item's value to determine magical properties that the item may possess.
  • Special: Bards are able to identify items easier than other classes. Various spells and items can also give a character a bonus to their lore skill.
  • Use: Automatic every time the player inspects an item.
