"It's not just enough to have deft fingers in this line of work, scrub. You ever picked a tumbler with more keyways then ya got fingers? No. Best get to practicing. How about a simple lock embedded in hardened steel? Ever seen a trapped lock? No. Hit those books before that missin' knowledge decides ta hit you."

Skills

Statistics will tell you everything you wanted to know about your character's natural talents. In the civilized world, Skills allow you to apply that talent to everyday life. Most skill checks that are considered general knowledge of ability don't really require much real investment, but trained skills need a certain amount of thought be put into them.

Skills are based on the Statistic that they normally pair with. There are also Martial and Rogue skills that would be something to think about if you intend on being some kind of stand up fighter or a ne'er-do-well.
