Jumping skill.
« on: September 07, 2014, 03:27:17 pm »

A skill that allowed you to jump farther, faster, and higher. Say, you have a 3 wide pit, where normally, you'd be scrambling against the side, trying to hold on, and, most likely failing. A competent jumper, you could land on that edge half the time. It increases, until you, at legendary, can quickly jump five squares, able to jump between two squares away, all the way to five. With the jumping higher, you could jump up, at legendary, three Z levels up, one forward. Jumping faster would allow you to do a sort of impromptu charge from a distance, crashing into someone a few spots away before they can react, whereas now, they have time to dodge your jump.

decent idea, maybe make cave dragons (they have wings but no fly) and/or jumping spiders or other things that seem reasonable have natural skill in jumping

Certainly a doable idea, since cats are already Legendary Climbers by default.
