Skills
From Shadowrun: Awakened
Skills are abstract ratings for trained abilities a character posses in-game. In Shadowrun Awakened will emulate their use in SR4. They will be an abstract rating of training that, most often, combines with a base Attributes in order to provide a total rating of proficiency for a particular area. Different situations will demand different skills. As you may notice from the skills listed below, we are ignoring knowledge skills in the mid-term, but may implement them in the long-term.
