- Language: grants intimate knowledge of writing and communication, enabling the character to communicate with groups who do not use the common language, as well as knowledge of languages from the distant past.
- Law & Policy: studies the system of theological laws, to permit tighter enforcement of the God's will among its believers.
- Logic & Ethics: the study of general and fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, values, reason and mind, enabling the character to teach others and pass along the comprehension of magical structure.
- Publishing: provides knowledge in the writing and dissemination of literature, music or images, most usefully in the creation of magical scrolls and tomes for use by those able to read magic.
