    Idea is there should be a huge variety, similar to like in real life. Again, due to the duration of the game, skills take significant practice to reach a 'master' level.
    The following isn't a complete list or even the final form, its just to showcase the idea's extent.

    Skills would be measured between 1 and 10, with certain items or followers supplementing or replacing the Agent's ability based on certain situations.

    The reason the skills are so painstakingly filled out is because most, if not all, the interactions the player has with the world will be through their agents so it just makes sense the player would have this kind of information and care about it.

    Thinking about this some more, skills should be divided between: left brain, right brain and body.

    I know "strength" and "reflexes" aren't typically listed as "skills" in video games but they need to be measured somehow.

    Some left brain skills: Logical and Analytical Thinking, Sequential Processing, Fine Motor Skills, Arithmetic and Mathematics, Speech and Communication, Linear Thinking, Object Recognition

    Some right brain skills: Creativity and Imagination, Emotional Processing, Holistic Thinking, Non-Verbal Communication, Gestalt Processing, Spatial Processing
