Miscellaneous skills: All skills can lead to occupations. Only two of these per character. If your occupation only requires one specific skill, you can have any other skill you want. If your occupation requires two skills, those are the only two skills you can have for your character.
∻Cooking - The ability to make meals. Food regenerates health and adds to the enjoyment of the game. All food gives the impression of actually eating and tasting the food. The skill level determines the deliciousness of the meal and how much hp is restored. All flavors in the real world can be experienced inside the game if you know how to mix the ingredients and where to find everything; all things gained with levels.
∻Silver Tongue - Silver Tongue is the ability to talk your way out of trouble and swindle merchants into giving you an item for less gold. The higher the level, the more persuasive you are and most would consider you quite the charmer.
∻Sneak/hide - The ability to go undetected even if you are right in front of someone. This works best at night until the level is high enough to full those in broad daylight.
∻Lock Picker - This allows player to unlock chests, doors, anything that has a lock on it. The higher the level, the less you break your lock picks.
∻Pick pocket - Allows you to pick pockets. The higher the level, the more you can lift without someone noticing.
∻Seeker - Is the ability to find items of rare value. The higher the level, the more the player can find some of the rarest items in LAIOS. This also allows the user to gain more items per fight.
∻Detection - Train your detection skill and you'll have an easier time seeing the sneak and avoid pick pockets. This also helps in fights, allowing you to be aware of your opponents moves based on their stances.
∻Sewing - This skill allows you to make your own clothing. The higher the skill, the more money you can obtain from selling your wares.
∻Acrobat - This is the ability to do a variety of moves like getting to hard to reach places and jumping higher than most people.
∻Herbologist - Ability to find more herbs for healing and poisons.
∻Forger - Ability to use a furnace to create weapons and armor.
∻Enchanter - ability to enhance armor and accessories with upgrades.
