Once trained, it allows more demanding jumps, reaching greater height or distance, and maintaining stability on landing or when chaining movement. At expert rank in this area, it allows jumps under pressure, clearing dangerous gaps, reacting on unstable surfaces, and sustaining risky maneuvers with greater control. At master level, it allows extreme jumping maneuvers, using terrain tactically, and turning physical power into a decisive positioning advantage.

This skill can be used without prior training. However, increasing your Athletics training rank lets you face challenges more effectively, reducing the roll difficulty and improving your chances of beating the Difficulty Class (DC). When untrained, this skill allows ascent on simple surfaces such as gentle slopes, improvised ladders, or broad footholds, maintaining balance and basic progress without major difficulty. Once trained, it allows climbing walls, ropes, rubble, or more demanding surfaces while keeping pace and control even when footholds are reduced or irregular. At expert rank in this area, it allows climbing under pressure, maintaining stability while acting vertically, reacting to falling debris or failed grips, and progressing safely through dangerous terrain. At master level, it represents full command of climbing, allowing ascent on nearly any surface, use of minimal holds, fast vertical movement, and turning elevated terrain into a clear tactical advantage.

This skill can be used without prior training. However, increasing your Athletics training rank lets you face challenges more effectively, reducing the roll difficulty and improving your chances of beating the Difficulty Class (DC). This skill covers movement, endurance, and maneuvering in water, from crossing a canal to staying afloat in rough water or shifting currents. Without training, the character lacks the technique and endurance needed to swim safely, so any attempt carries an immediate risk of sinking or fatigue; however, trying to stay afloat against all odds would still be feasible. Once trained, it allows effective swimming in calm waters, maintaining control of movement, covering moderate distances, and staying afloat without difficulty. At expert rank in this area, it allows functioning in strong currents, heavy surf, or turbulent waters, keeping orientation, maneuvering precisely, and sustaining effort over long periods. At master level, it represents complete command of the aquatic environment, allowing long-distance swimming without exhaustion, confident diving, crossing dangerous currents or extreme conditions, and turning water into terrain as natural and advantageous as solid ground.

This skill can be used without prior training. However, increasing your Athletics training rank lets you face challenges more effectively, reducing the roll difficulty and improving your chances of beating the Difficulty Class (DC). When untrained, this skill allows you to lift or drag light objects and handle small loads for brief periods, as long as the weight does not compromise balance or basic mobility. Once trained, it allows carrying heavy bundles, transporting bulky gear, or dragging bodies and goods without losing marching pace, maintaining control of effort and posture even across moderate distances. At expert rank in this area, it allows moving very heavy loads under pressure, redistributing weight while in motion, working efficiently in group lifts, and maintaining stability in difficult terrain or tight spaces. At master level, it represents exceptional mastery of applied strength, allowing you to lift, hold, or transport extreme weights for long periods, manipulate massive objects with precision, and turn physical power into a decisive logistical advantage even in adverse conditions.

This skill can be used without prior training. However, increasing your Athletics training rank lets you face challenges more effectively, reducing the roll difficulty and improving your chances of beating the Difficulty Class (DC). When untrained, this skill allows moving light or unstable objects over short distances by pushing or dragging them with effort, as long as the weight does not exceed what can be moved without losing balance or stopping frequently. Once trained, it allows dragging heavy loads, pushing furniture, rubble, light carts, or other bulky objects while maintaining steady progress and keeping control even on uneven surfaces. At expert rank in this area, it allows moving considerable weight under pressure, forcing a path by clearing obstacles, shifting improvised structures, or working efficiently in group pushes without compromising stability or endurance. At master level, it represents outstanding command of force applied to movement, allowing you to drag or push massive loads, reposition large objects with precision, and turn the physical environment into a tactical or logistical advantage even in extreme conditions.
