Skill: Perception

Your Perception measures your ability to notice things, search for what’s hidden, and tell whether something about a situation is suspicious.

Mechanically, Perception is usually the most rolled skill in the game, due to its use. As such, it is a skill that almost anyone can use, even if one person in an adventuring party benefits from such, and can be supplemented in a variety of ways (from features to items). Notably, it is used for the Seek Action | ◈. Talents for Perception help cover those bases and/or assist in how a character wishes to specialize in Perception.

Perception uses INT / Intelligence or WIS / Wisdom by default. Perception is a Primary Skill, meaning it is a major skill that can only be gained by mechanics that grant proficiency.

Skill Talents available by Perception proficiency

These Talents can be gained during Character Progression or other means (such as gaining it from a Background, Increasing your Intelligence attribute, gaining the Expert Talent Gain class feature, etc). Like all Talents, these are meant to be good at your character level, often scaling with you.
