Victim Campaign Skills List

I have modified the skills list in the BTS main book to create a more believeable environment. Everyone can get some skills, and the characters can use those thier liking, however, these are nothing that alone should be able to save a character from the evils outside. These are just reference notes to givew an idea of what, besides storytelling, your character is capable of. The skills often act as a defining point for monotonous characters. Hopefully this will help add flavor to your Victim Camapign!

If you feel that the use of the skills will interefere with the game DON'T USE THEM!! Only use them to help! You should not concern yourslef with the minor details of skills, especially if it will impair the quality of your game! I have provided these to be a helpful reference IF you want to use skills. If you wish not to, don't! These are 100% optional!
