Anatomy (1 slot, Int)

This proficiency involves the knowledge of the secret mysteries and intricacies of the human body, including the structure, function, and location of bones, muscles, organs, and other soft tissues. This skill provides the scholarly foundation for the Anatomist’s special abilities. This proficiency also comes in handy with certain necromantic spells (such as corpse link, spectral voice, and graft flesh), which require fresh body parts that have been carefully harvested from cadavers.

This proficiency also has some less gruesome benefits. A detailed knowledge of anatomy can help with both the treatment of disease and the accurate artistic representation of the human body. Characters with the anatomy nonweapon proficiency automatically increase their skill with healing and artistic ability proficiencies (+2 bonus to both ability checks).
