In some campaigns, only characters built using a particular
character template, trained in a given fighting style, or taught
at a specific school can buy certain skills,
techniques, and perks. With the GM’s
permission, this perk lets you buy such
abilities without being from the correct
background. You must specialize by
school, style, or template.
Secret Knowledge†
You can buy one particular skill that’s
possible in your game setting but not
taught to entire academies or professions
– or possibly to anyone. This usually
means Hidden Lore specialties, spells,
and ritual magic Paths. If the skill nor-
mally isn’t even possible in your world,
this perk can’t help (but see Unusual
Training, p. 21).
