Skillful Aspect[edit]
Around the world there are remote places, be it a forgotten training ground, a certain spot under a waterfall, or on top of a tall pole high in the air, which resonate with psychic energy. Born from memories of skillful achievements in the past, these supernatural locations make it easier to unlock one's hidden talents and make the impossible possible. The appearance of the area is often very mundane, but those who learn about them soon refer to them as lucky places or lands of legend where heroes of lore went to train.
Lore[edit]
The nature of the skillful aspect is as varied as its location. A skillful aspect of balance may be a field of bamboo shoots which the great monkey king trained upon shortly before ascending to the stars. An aspect of diplomacy may be a courtroom where great legal battles took place that swung the fate of a nation. An aspect of survival might be a jungle so dangerous that to survive more than a week without contact is considered a miracle. In all cases they were once sights of legendary activity in some lore. A knowledge history check can determine the importance of a site and its viability as a skillful aspect.
