Hey All, I want advice for lore skills for my time-traveling thaumaturge Kashrishi

[Hilary Moon Murphy]

So I have a Tome Thaumaturge Kashrishi named 'Tourist', with the Time-Traveler background for PFS. (I unlocked the Time Traveler background via a Chronicle.)

I know most of what I want for Tourist. He's got both Diverse Lore feat and an all-encompassing Tourist Guidebook (aka, his Tome Implement.) But I haven't decided what three lores I want for the Time Traveler background! Diverse Lore is going to take care of most of my Recall Knowledge needs. Tome is going to let me pick up other skills on the fly when I need them.

So... what I want is three fun lores that will involve things that I can *do* in game. I think that Sailing Lore should be one of them -- it's a great skill for a Tourist to have. What should be my other two Lores?

Suggestions welcome, but I am playing him next week and would like to nail down this final aspect of his character.

Hmm

Some of the lores I am considering are:

Engineering Lore - Might be a good way of reflecting that I am traveling from the future.

Fortune-Telling Lore - Heh. What better way to predict the future than to have already seen it?

Hunting / Scouting Lore - Maybe I picked up some skill on safari?

Desna Lore - Tourist is a devout Desnan. This would be for flavor reasons only. My issue with this one is that most of the times that it would show up in Adventures, it would be for Recall Knowledge purposes, and I have that covered with the Diverse Lore feat. I am looking more for lores that open up something that I can do as a character in game.

Games lore is a fun one. Pack an old mage deck.

A lore based on a location could be fun. You'd be recalling knowledge from the perspective of history books.

[Hilary Moon Murphy]

I figure that I can grab location lores from Tome. "Hey, we're traveling there? Alright, I'll put in Jalmeray lore..." I'm looking for lores that are not primarily Recall Knowledge lores but "hey, you can do something with this!' lores.

Piloting vehicles uses Driving Lore and Piloting Lore.

And it makes sense for a time traveler to know those.

[Hilary Moon Murphy]

That could be interesting... It won't come up often, but when it does...

[Corabee Cori]

You never know. Maybe you will come across an opportunity to drive a wagon with extendible automated scimitars.

[Hilary Moon Murphy]

Alas that won't happen. He got GM credit for that particular adventure...

[Tourist]

I have decided on Sailing Lore, Piloting Lore and Hospitality Lore. (He was once a former innkeeper that now has finally gotten a chance to travel himself.)

[The Raven Black]

I was going to propose Cooking lore, for various recipes that will survive the ages.

[Hilary Moon Murphy]

I really considered Cooking Lore, especially since I like to cook, and that is one that actually comes up in scenarios. But I already have a low-level chef PC, so I think this will be a little different.

(And maybe I will take cooking lore with additional lore later.)
