- NO RATING
- UNAWARE
- This is something other than having no ranks in a skill—this is a special level of ignorance. You haven’t the first clue about this skill. This level can only be achieved through a quality (like the Incompetent negative quality, p. 81), or maybe a character history explaining the deficiency. You can’t default the skill, and it never really occurs to you to even use it to solve your problems.
- RATING 0
- UNTRAINED
- The default level of knowledge obtained through interaction with society and the Matrix. Though untrained, you have a general awareness of the skill, and occasionally may even be able to fake it.
- RATING 1
- BEGINNER
- You have a little training about how it works, but not always why it works.
- RATING 2
- NOVICE
- You’re a hobbyist, but not an enthusiast.
- RATING 3
- COMPETENT
- You’re skilled at basic operations but struggle with complex operations and “tricks.”
