Type: Life Science (Ecology)
Focus: Beasts (wild), Ranching (domesticated) [choose 1 for +1; -1 all others]
When a character wants to know the game statistics of a natural creature / natural fauna.
It takes a zoologist to safely identify and extract poisons from creatures. They understand the basics of animal behavior and the niche(s) they may fill. They have basic knowledge of physiology and anatomy, metabolic processes, and physical appearance, but not any cultural, historical, or locale specific knowledge. Competent knowledge may provide an opportunity and/or bonus in training and healing familiar creatures. Actions which call for a zoological component at a cost portion can be manufactured for half cost (on a successful check).
Frame of Reference: All Skills are bound by the character's Setting (physics), and the details that their culture/society's Science (gathered by Technology), direct experience, and/or collective Records are capable of revealing. A character may not be able to apply their full measure on a different world, with different species and tools.
Elements of this may feed into or be leveraged by: Alchemy, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. It is usually practiced with a kit of typical equipment in a lab of some sort (if available). A character may gain a Toolkits and Work Stations by purchasing them in-game (depending on availability) or at the time of Inception using Assets.
Specialties
Each specialty has its own specific set of materials and tools. Some are shared with other related specialties, but the exact Utility Set is unique.

Botany
Posted on August 10, 2022 in Skill
Type: Life Science (Ecology)
Botany: The character has studied natural plants and various processes around air, soil, and climate as it relates to them.When a character wants to know the game statistics of a natural plant / natural flora.
They understand what may be poisonous or edible, what grows most efficiently, and what uses plants and crops can be put to. It requires a botany skill to safely identify and extract poisons from flora. It can provide a small set of materials that will improve healing in minor measures; curatives will vary by setting and availability. Note that without the ability to preserve the botanical creations, GM’s may rule that they will lose their potency or even become poisonous. Assume a character can have preserved their skill level in number of any particular item without such measures. This (or the cost to preserve) prevents a massive stockpiling of botanical creations in most cases. Assume simple creations will cost a simple cost portion, and advanced creations a major cost portion. Actions which call for a botanical component at a cost portion can be manufactured for half cost (on a successful check). A successful check indicates (assuming availability) the ingredient can be found for cooking to increase the sustenance value of a meal by 1 for Recovery purposes.

Biology
Posted on August 10, 2022 in D20 iCore Skill
( BIOLOGY) Biology is an advanced Life Science of the study of living organisms which picks up where Botany and Zoology leave off. Cellular behavior and ecology, cell evolution, genetics, and biochemistry are all informed by the Biology skill. It is the microcosm of the botanical and zoological macrocosm. Biology allows for research and treatment of specific organ or bodily processes, the practice of advanced medicine, genetics/eugenics, and the ability to study and identify any living organisms to learn of its functions and processes. Biology, along with engineering, forms the core of installing and creating (Physics needed) cybernetic enhancements – basic materials, processes, tools and procurement.
