Intelligence Attribute
Intelligence determines how well your character learns and reasons. Intelligence is important for any character who wants to have a wide assortment of skills.
You apply your character's Intelligence modifier to:
- The number of languages your character knows at the start of the game
- The number of skill points gained at each new level (though an Intelligence penalty can never reduce this number below 1; your character always gets at least 1 skill point per level).
- Search and Knowledge checks, and other skill checks using Intelligence as the key ability
- Some Alter-based Force skill checks
