I'm not sure if this is well known but reading various books can provide skill bonuses.

I wonder if Grognak the Barbarian will be in the game. jk

Obvious... Oblivion (And I believe Morrowind) had those as well. But thanks anyway.

I fully expect an Orc NPC named Grognak gro-Malog, descendant of http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Agronak_gro-Malog.

I would have never guessed that. You learn something new every day.....

some loser on the other board probably would have wet his bed and screamed spoiler if this was posted over there.
