### Class Skills
- **Bardic Lore**: INT or WIS check to recall lore pertaining to magic items, heroes, legends, and myths (including knowing some of the powers of a magic item).
- **Prestidigitation**: Can use a combat action to make a skilled INT check to create a small, instant, illusory effect that inflicts no damage.
- **Ritual Casting**: Some rituals require a skilled check.
