Animal Handling

Animal Handling

Availability: Planned -- The 'calm' interaction is not live yet. Direct practice and trainer progression remain available; the described behaviors and milestones are design targets.

Calm, direct, and work with mundane animals.

Domain Synergy: Naturalism
How It Improves: Use it in the world, practice it directly with practice animal_handling, and seek out trainers once you push past 50.

Design Milestones (not live unlocks):
  25 -- Domestic animals respond to basic commands
  50 -- Wild animals can be calmed or redirected
  75 -- Predators hesitate; pack animals follow willingly
  90 -- Even territorial beasts defer to your presence
  100 -- Any natural creature treats you as kin

Practical Advice: Skills are long-term investments. Keep the tool or context they need on hand, use them in the zones that support them, and check skills often so you can lean into what your character is already getting good at.
