Skills it starts you with
A starting level does more than it shows: it locks in a faster learning rate for that skill for the whole run.
| Skill | Starting levels | Learning rate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strength | +2 | ×1.0 | raw stat only, no faster rate |
Can you earn it in play?
- Yes. The game adds and removes this trait on its own as your Strength or Fitness level moves.
- Buying it only changes the timing — you start at that level instead of working up to it. Nothing is withheld either way.
