This bonus may be conferred to an ally as a move action.
Loremaster 2
A Loremastere's knowledge is all-encompassing. They receive +4 to all MApt Knowledge.
Loremaster 3
An adept Loremaster's mind is a well-ordered repository. Their Lore action is now free, may be transferred as a minor action. It may be used once per turn. It may also be made as a reaction to an attack or save. If it is made as a reaction to an attack, the Loremaster instead gains +1 to all defences against that attack.
Loremaster X
Once per day, as a free action, an expert Loremaster may make a Lore check at DC5 instead of DC15. This check cannot critically fail.
