Alchemy (Int), Concentration (Con), Diplomacy (Cha), Heal (Wis), Knowledge (arcana) (Int), Knowledge (religion) (Int), Knowledge (steamcraft) (Int), Profession (Wis), Scry (Int, exclusive skill) and Spellcraft (Int).Rogues gain all firearms proficiencies for free.Hope that helps.  Toss me an e-mail if you need more info, and I'll find a way to get it to you.</blockquote>
