Black Blade Skill Question


Advice

Dark Archive

I was doing some bookwork on my Bladebound Magus earlier today and ran into the section where the Black Blade gets skill ranks in Knowledge (Arcana) at a very weird pace. That's all fine.

The text doesn't have any suggestion that Knowledge (Arcana) is a class skill for the Black Blade. I'm fine with that although it seems weird. Is there some rule coming from somewhere else (or something I'm otherwise missing) that would give the blade Arcana as a class skill? Just making sure I'm not missing something.

While I'm at it, my reading of the languages part is that the Black Blade gains additional languages but not any ranks in Linguistics. I wouldn't have mentioned it but while browsing the web for advice on the first point I ran into someone claiming that the Black Blade got Linguistics ranks and that just looks wrong to me.


As far as I know there aren't any books that give a Black Blade new powers. That person you talked to probably got his GM to allow him to have Black Blade with Linguistics.
