Skills
Within PathRunner, there are two separate types of Skills: Core Skills, and Active Skills. Core skills can have a maximum number of ranks based on the Characters Global Skill level. When putting the first rank into a skill it becomes a Classed Skill, and thereby gains a +3 miscellaneous modifier on checks. Selecting your Priority Chart in the Skills section determines the number of Skill ranks you receive per Global Level.
Core Skills
Every Core Skill possesses an associated Ability Score, which determines an additional bonus towards the Skill. At the most basic level, a Skill check involves rolling 1d20, and adding the character's Skill Ranks and Ability Score Modifier for the relevant Ability.
