Specialty

A subset of information dealing with a particular application of related technique, processes, and materials that can facilitate the creation of specialized Items. Each practiced body of knowledge and Trade has multiple areas of expertise reflected in specialties, including familiarity with Artistic Expression. Each specialty has its own specific set of materials and tools. Some are shared with other related specialties (with the Feature – skill, trait, etc.), but the exact Utility Set is unique.

Focused Study: Checks for actions or knowledge within the Specialty gain a +1 (Measure of Quality). Checks for things outside the Specialty within its related Feature (skill, trait, etc.) suffer a -1.
