As you rise in proficiency with skills,
you gain skill perks at new mastery levels.
Each skill has five trainers. Two are low-level
trainers who can bring a given skill up
to 40. Two are medium or 'advanced' trainers
who can bring the skill up to 70. And one
is a master trainer who can get it up to
100. The master trainer's identity is known
only to the medium trainers in a discipline,
and they'll reveal it and their location
when your skill in that discipline gets
to 70 and you ask them about "Training"
in conversation.
The master may set you on a task or test
before he or she trains you. Some of the
conditions you may have already fulfilled,
depending on the task or test requirements.
Should you fail a test, you can retake it
immediately, except for speechcraft which
requires immediate success.
