Description

The Detect Languages skill represents a character's ability to recognize, interpret, and translate unfamiliar tongues, whether written or spoken. A character with this skill may not necessarily be fluent in all languages, but will gain a +1d6 bonus when attempting to identify the language of an ancient text, translate simple phrases, detect speech patterns, and piece together meaning from context. This skill is essential for scholars, diplomats, and adventurers who frequently encounter foreign texts or coded messages.
