Celestial Lore
Angels are powerful creatures and it’s an old hero’s adage: don’t anger anyone who can vaporize you in a beam of concentrated holy light.
Ceremony
Watching a priest perform a ritual in the center of town is something most wouldn’t consider unusual. Those keen of eye and armed with the knowledge of the hidden rituals of Tamoachan would know something evil is afoot.
Divine Spell Lore
A priest raises their hands, calling out for a powerful being to lend them power. With your hefty knowledge of divine spells, you’ll know if they’re summoning a fiendish weasel or casting a magical darkness.
Fiend Lore
Devils? Demons? It’s inadvised to trust either, but knowing which one sticks to their word and which doesn’t will save your life.
Prophecy Lore
Players deal with prophecies regularly, but it usually involves seeking out wise old mountain dwellers for their knowledge. Cut out the middle prophet by learning about them yourself.
Undead Lore
A skeleton stands before you, a few strands of hair clinging to the dome of its skull. A quick check will tell you if you should rush a disposable guardian or if you’re about to be disintegrated by a powerful lich.
Zeal
A priest needs to communicate with the followers of their God. Zeal allows them to pass religious messages along with their sermons, similar to Bards using the Perform skill with an audience.
