Description[edit]
Lore represents a character's accumulated miscellaneous knowledge and trivia, often of occult or esoteric topics.
In combat, it helps characters learn about enemy defenses and capabilities.
Each time a character attacks an enemy, their Lore skill helps contribute to revealing their defenses and, for common enemies, filling in their Bestiary entries.
