Animal Handling

Category: primary Stat: Charisma

This skill covers the capture, care, training, and control of any GM-approved animal, such as a Shahantian Bull. Skilled handlers are familiar with the hazards and characteristics that a given animal presents, and how to effectively use it. Once successfully 'broken' and trained, which may rake months, an animal can follow simple commands within its capabilities. By default, animals that are excessively headstrong, wild, or stupid cannot be compelled to obey complicated orders and may incur control penalties. Additionally such animals must be regularly retrained less they revert to an untrained state.
