The ROM skill system allows you to fully customize your new character, making him or her skilled in the skills you choose. Additional skills you do not pick at character creation can be learned through gaining the skill with trains or aquests points. Skills are paid for with creation points, and the more creation points you have, the harder it is to gain a level. Furthermore, higher-cost skills are harder to practice.

Skill groups are like package deals for characters -- sets of skills or spells that are closely related, and hence can be learned as a unit. There is a default skill group for each class, which can be selected for a balanced selection of skills at a somewhat reduced cost.

The experience breakdown is as follows:

points   exp/level     points   exp/level
40        1000         90        6000
50        1500         100       8000
60        2000         110      12000
70        3000         120      16000 
80        4000         130      24000

The table continues in a similar manner for higher point totals.
