[Adonthell-general] Outside Abilities

[Andrew Phillips]

The concept of limiting a given character to one outside skill is an
interesting one to me.

Is this to be strictly construed as absolutely 1 outside ability? For
example, if a Half-Elf chose to learn magick, would he be required to
choose a single element to the exclusion of all others?

How would Human Forestkeepers, Monks, Witches, or Shamans (Green
Knights, Rods of Chaos) be approached? Would they, for the purposes of
gameplay, be considered Half-Elves so they could learn a full range of
songs and  be therefore limited to learning a single Human, Elvish, or
Dwarvish ability? Given that a normal Human can only learn the first
rank in each category of song, would one of the benefits of taking
levels in Ranger, Monk, Witch, or Shaman include access to higher
levels of singing skill?

What other main skill outside skills sets might work well together?
