Okay so I'm unsure as to whether or not there is a base skill rank that you get for your class. Like each class has a set of class skills they are given, does that mean though that those skills have a base rank of 1 or are they just skills that you have, but don't have a rank in? To me it seems silly if you don't because the class skills should be easier to rank up than a skill that you don't normally have, and the only way I can think of that it would be easier is if they had a base rank of 1 in those skills. Also another question, it says you can't have a score over your classes hit die, does that mean the total score can't be over the hit die or the skill rank can't be over the hit die?
