Profession System
Beyond combat and magic, every character may apprentice in a craft. Twelve subjects, taught at Aston University, await thee.
In addition to the skill system, characters can learn up to four individual professions. Characters gain profession points (PPS) by raising a skill called Profession, whose cost is equal to that of Hitpoints. At level 20, every character acquires this skill — all classes can raise it to 50 (Arches to 100).
