Wheel of Time:  Skills
This list is a draft and contains all of the existing skills in Morrowind. It appears that we can do the following for skills:      Replace the governing attribute.      Replace the specialization.      Replace the description.      Replace the usage factor of the actions.      Replace the skill name.				Magic: All of the skills can be kept but the magic schools must be changed.  D&D schools will not fit since there are too many.  We cannot add skills because we cannot attach skills to actions. A number of the D&D spells cannot be done in a computer game..or at least not this one.  The list below is just for FYI.  The spells will be on another page and organized and the magic schools here fixed.

Enchant	Enchant	Intelligence	Intelligence	Magic	Magic	Recharge item	5.00	-	This skill governs the creation, use, and recharging of enchanted items. Skilled enchanters are more successful at creating new items such as ter'angrial, angrial, and sa'angrial. Enchanted items burn less power, and are recharged more efficiently from soul gems, for a trained user. Not sure about the soul gems and such.  We have to think this one over.  Maybe just get rid of the soul gems....except for the darkfriends.  Like the blades made for the Myrdraal in Shael Ghol
