Occultism is the gateway skill for probing Starfall Galaxy’s greatest mysteries, enabling player characters to recall eldritch knowledge, decipher obscure magic, and master rituals rooted in cosmic distortion. This skill anchors narrative investigation, facilitates access to magical and esoteric resources, and interacts directly with key factions like the Chronologists Guild. Whether parsing a haunted anomaly in the Outer Sphere or negotiating ritual clearance in a guild enclave, Occultism rolls shape campaign play and story outcomes.
Recall Knowledge: Eldritch lore about aberrations, esoteric cults, anomalies, and planes—including the Astral, Ethereal, and the Void.
Decipher Writing: Interpreting metaphysical treatises, occult scripts, and incoherent prophecies, often the difference between revealing a secret and triggering a dangerous curse.
Identify magic: Pinpointing the source, effects, and hazards of occult magic—used for evaluating relics, traps, or rituals across every region of Starfall
Learn A Spell: Training in the occult tradition, gaining the means to wield cosmic energies, often through sanctioned rituals or guild instruction
