To make things more consistent and to take away some of the confusion with Scholar skills, as of this year there will be a published list of Scholar skills to choose from.
New skills will automatically be chosen from the new list. Those with existing skills from the older lists or those with skills already booked prebook or over winter will need to go to Games Control when on site.
These changes will give more utility to each chosen skill. It also makes it easier for people looking for new skills to have an existing list to choose from, and gives everyone an idea what sorts of research areas there are.
Sage skills will also be revamped however at present they remain unchanged. The process of gaining Sage will remain the same. Details of the prerequisites and method for gaining sage are listed in the OSP book.
