Arcana, Divine and Nature magics work through the Weave in my game and share a common methodology ... meaning they often overlap.  Psionics works quite differently.SUPERNATURAL - Anything magical that is not Arcane, Divine, Nature or Psionics is Supernatural.  This is a knowledge of Supernatural lore.  It can help you learn the way a dragon flight works, tell you about ghost movement, or tell you about elemental mechanics.  Generally intelligence.CHESMISTRY/BIOLOGY/PHYSICS - This gives you information on how one of the fields of science works (you pick one).  Generally intelligence.DECORUM - Politics, business, and other skills are aggregated here.  Generally used with intelligence.  It is about knowing what to do in the world of social rules - and reduces the catchall size of persuasion.  ENDURANCE - A constitution skill, this allows you to push beyond normal limits and avoid negative repercussions such as exhaustion from certain causes.  It is a slippery slops skill as players want to use anytime their PC might suffer a consequence for pushing themselves too hard, but that allows potential abuses.</blockquote>
