Name: Art of Persuasion 
Rank: I
Concentration: low
Type: Communication
Description:


No matter the person the skill user is interacting with, they can always make them feel safe, welcome, and wanted with a well placed smile and gesture. Using a calm and welcoming attitude they can steer any unsuspecting individual in any direction they need them to go, like right through the front doors of their own shop or work place. With the use of a well placed and gentle touch the user can command another's attention and even defuse a brewing altercation. 



Name: Palmistry
Rank: I
Concentration: medium
Type: Communication
Description:


Reading the characterization and foretelling the "future" through the study of the palm. There are many—often conflicting—interpretations of various lines and palmar features across various styles of palmistry but the art of learning such a skill comes from practice with an established reader and many palms read. It's often used as a parlor trick or to earn an extra coin as a street entertainer.



Name: Dealer
Rank: I
Concentration: low
Type : Communication
Description:


A skill which employs knowledge of various recreational substances which was gained by use and sampling of products. This knowledge allows the skill holder to simply provide a service to people who demand it. Drug dealers don't SELL people drugs, they OFFER people drugs.



Name: Sleight of hand
Rank: II 
Concentration: low-medium
Type: Task
Description:


A set of fine motor skills used by performing artists in different art forms to entertain or manipulate. It is closely associated with card magic, card flourishing, and stealing (pick pockets). With nimble fingers and practiced movements this skill allows the individual to slip a hand where it doesn't belong just long enough to sneak away something valuable or trick a willing or unknowing victim out of their goods. 



Name: Cold read
Rank: II
Concentration: Medium
Type: Communication
Description:


A set of techniques used by mentalists, psychics, fortune-tellers, and mediums. Without prior knowledge one can quickly obtain a great deal of information by analyzing a person's body language, age, clothing or fashion, hairstyle, gender, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, level of education, manner of speech, place of origin, etc. Commonly employing high-probability guesses, quickly picking up on signals as to whether their guesses are in the right direction or not, then emphasizing and reinforcing chance connections and quickly moving on from missed guesses.



Name: Art of seduction
Rank: II
Concentration: medium
Type: Communication
Description:


The process of deliberately enticing a person, to engage in a relationship, to lead astray, as from duty, rectitude, or the like; to corrupt, to persuade or induce into engaging in sexual behavior. Methods include, but are not limited to: Conversation, touch, and behavioral cues.

Seduce the mind and you can have the body, find the soul and they're yours forever!


Name: Card Shark
Rank: II
Concentration: high
Type: Task
Description:


At this point playing cards is not just for fun, it's a way of life. These are the skills of someone who's been working these 52 familiars for longer than they'd care to admit. Counting and keeping track of each number and suit is child's play (against the rules as it is). Paired with sleight of hand and you've got a winning hand every time.



Name: Mixologist
Rank: III
Concentration: medium-high
Type: Task
Description:


Expert level knowledge in mixing cocktails, drinks, and pouring spirits. A bartender of this caliper can typically read a person and make accurate drink suggests on what a customer doesn't even know he needs. A mixologist would know food pairings, what sort of drink would be perfect along side some chocolate cake or even which little "extra" to pair with your liquid courage. Either way, you'll feel like a million bucks... Until the next morning of course.
