* [[5E (Urban)|Urban's]] 5th edition pages
You can generally count on being allowed to roll a skill with the ability score it is associated with. You can request to use a different ability and the [[GM]] may or may not allow this.
 
  
If you gain the same skill training or proficiency from two different sources, such as from both class and background, you can gain any other training or proficiency instead. This does not apply to skill expertise (double proficiency bonus) - you only gain expertise when the rules specifically say you do. If you gain expertise in a skill you already have training in you can replace that training with another training or proficiency, as above. This does not apply if the training and expertise comes from the same source, such as the rogue class.

=== Half-Level Bonuses ===
 
Half-level bonuses give small additional advantages at the halfway point to each new level.
 
Leveling happens in very large steps which can lead to long periods when characters do not develop, particularly in a slow-leveling campaign.

* '''GM''' Gain the patronage of one of the leading Avowed.
 
* '''GM''' Make a character made friends with during an adventure into a henchman.

All classes count as the best spellcasting class you have levels in for multiclassing.
