-Gnomes are well-gnown to have a particular hobby which easily passes beyond a hobby or passive enjoyment, but is rather their true obsession. When you select this Talent, choose a single specific skill from the options in the requirements. You may spend TU (of any suitable kind, at GM discretion) to represent pursuit of your research. Doing so takes 10 hours of downtime investment, and a base price of 10 TU. Upon completion of this downtime, you gain a +1 bonus to that specific skill, as long as you have your journal available to reference (this bonus is instead +2 if it is a background skill). +

-You may repeat this process **ad infinitum** to expand the scope of your journal - each time you do, double the TU and downtime investment of the previous improvement to determine its cost, and increase the weight of your journal by 2 lbs. In exchange, the bonus provided by it increases by +1 (or +2 if it is a background skill). You may only have one journal at a time. If the journal is destroyed or otherwise discarded, you will have to begin anew.+

 +===== Master Tinker =====
 +<WRAP round box>
 +  * **Requirements:** Gnome, Craft (Any) 5, 20 Experience

 +Gnomes experiment with all manner of mechanical devices, and this leads martially inclined Gnomes to a unique predisposition. Gnomes with this Talent are proficient with any equipment which they have crafted themselves, without needing the associated proficiency Talent. Having the gear worked on by anyone else renders it inapplicable for this Talent.
