Skills are character abilities in The Elder Scrolls. These abilities allow the performance of various feats, spells, or attacks. Increasing a skill leads to leveling-up. The more a skill is increased, the more proficient the user becomes at performing it, usually awarding various Perks or decreased Magicka costs. Skills have evolved across games, some being combined, improved, or removed altogether.
