Knowledge (Infernal)
(Passive) INT
Possessed By: Some Humans, Bards, Mages, Rogues, Blackguards, Loremasters, Knowledge priests.
Effects: The Knowledge (Infernal) skill has the following uses:
* Demons and Devils (Passive): Many priests and paladins study demons and devils to learn how to better fight them, while dark sorcerors want to understand exactly what they are summoning. Knowledge (The Infernal) grants certain bonuses when fighting demons and devils. By applying simple hearth wisdom and studying the vulnerabilities of his targets, this skill allows a character the following bonuses when facing demons and devils: his effective DC is increased by [Skill Rating / 3] against their attacks, and his understanding of their banes and biology increases the threat ratings of his attacks against them by [Skill Rating / 9]. He can also summon them more effectively; demons and devils summoned by such a caster have a [Skill Rating x 5]% bonus to their hit points.
* The Lower Planes (Passive): The Knowledge (Infernal) skill works just like Knowledge (Theyra) when the character is on a wilderness map in the Lower Planes.
* Identify Monsters (Passive): The Knowledge (Infernal) skill can be used to identify demons and devils, as described under Appraise.
