(General)
Skill Skinning
This will enable one to attempt to remove the exterior from a corpse. Many useful things can be made from skinned animals, such as shields from chitinous creatures, clothing from scaled/brightly colored creatures, knives from claws, and so on. Rangers, due to their extensive experience in the wilderness, have a greater chance at succeeding at this operation. Others have varying chances to succeed.
This is a skill which, for those guilds which get it, will increase over time with practice.
Syntax:
skin (target)
Example:
> skin body
Note:
It is necessary to have a weapon capable of skinning held in your character's primary hand. Generally, such weapons are piercing or stabbing knives (though there are a few exceptions).
