Sciences

This skill represents your training in the life and physical sciences, including agriculture, astronomy, biology, botany, chemistry, genetics, paleontology, physics, geology, and zoology.

RECALL KNOWLEDGE ⬤ ◌ ◌ 

You attempt a skill check to try to remember a bit of knowledge regarding flora, fauna, biomes, geography, climate, chemistry and creatures or chemicals of natural origin.  Spend 1 Action and make a Sciences check to Recall Knowledge related to the medical sciences. The GM determines the DCs for such checks. 

RESEARCH (1 Hour)

You can use Research to learn information from libraries, databases, the Internet, archives, scientificjournals, or other standard sources to research a particular academic topic. It doesn't include talking to people and asking questions; that's handled by Interaction or roleplaying encounters.

Researching a topic takes time, skill, and some luck. Spend 1 Hour to make a Sciences check to Research and attempt to learn about a topic you specify. The GM determines how obscure a particular topic is (the more obscure, the higher the DC) and what kind of information might be available, depending on where you are conducting your research. Different locations will adjust the DCs, and allow you to reroll a failed Research check.

Information ranges from general to protected. Given enough time (usually 1 hour) and a successful skill check, you can gain a general idea about a given topic. This assumes that no obvious reasons exist why such information would be unavailable, and that you have a way to acquire restricted or protected information.
