Cartography – The Geologist has the ability to make and produce highly accurate maps, as well as accurately exploring and recording local geographic information. To create an accurate map, 45 minutes of roleplay is required and the results will be more accurate depending on the amount of Geologists helping, the area covered and studied, and use of tools or magics in the aid of this skill. Other types of map can be created with the use of other skills, such as magic or Miasma maps, tunnels, maps to aid the war table and others. 

Dig – The Geologist has the ability to spend 30 minutes per day excavating a site in order to glean information about the local area, historical occurrences, local magic, and to search for treasure. Results will vary depending on the location of the dig site, the amount of Geologists helping with the dig, how many digs have already taken place in that location and what kind of magic there is in the area. Specific research using this skill may also allow for the gaining of historical information on ruins, settlements, roads, rivers and so on. 

Gemcraft – A Geologist may use their research time in order to refine mineral or crystalline material into a more usable form for the purpose of making jewellery, storing spells or general crafting.
