Some Skills are `Specialised Skills', meaning that they are a broad category for a number of sub-skills. The Craft Skill covers metallurgy, woodcraft, armour making and many more. Anyone taking such Skills gain two Specialisations per level. Using a Skill without the appropriate Specialisation is often impossible (for instance, one cannot use the Performance Skill to play a harp if one has never learned to play a harp) but at other times can be attempted with a -1 penalty. For example, someone attempting to remember a fact about history who has no Academics Skill is at a -1 penalty to the roll. Someone with Academics who specialises in alchemy and politics but not history could attempt the roll without penalty because they gain +1 for having the Academics Skill and -1 for not having the correct specialisation. Finally, an academic with a specialisation in history could attempt the task with a +1 bonus to the roll for having the Skill with the correct specialisation.
-Each level of a Skill one has allows the character to have up to 1 Specialisations. For example, someone with Survival 2 might know how to track and build temporary shelters but would count as having Survival 1 when marching.

Each specialization can be used with any other specialized Skill. If you have a Specialization in swords, bought with the Combat Skill, you can apply that to Crafts. If your Beast Ken Specialization is in griffins, you can also use this to use when tracking them with the Survival Skill.

In general, the more dangerous and skillfull the job, the higher the pay, so most of the Night Guard try not to do too well at their job. They train in archery well, take a paycut in return for having more members in their group, and make sure nobody volunteers them for anything interesting. Of course, a lot of the jobs one takes depends more upon a captain of the Guard than the grunts.

Your homeland is in grave danger as nura surround it and grow more numerous every day. The local lord has given you strict instructions that you cannot leave, but you feel sure that the only path is to get help from another group.
Once each member of the group has expended three Story Points, an oppening comes to travel to a nearby ally, and beg for an army to save your homeland.
