Yeah, if only they worked. I suspect that a) they won't, b) they actually require Gullibility [-10*], and c) they turn out to be a Disadvantage (Debt [-1/level]).

I don't think that's a skill. I think it's either a technique, or what Low-Tech Companion 3 calls a craft secret perk. The skill would probably be Esoteric Medicine, though in some versions it might be simply Housekeeping.

I don't have the time to work out the math, but make it a cosmic affliction that removes any version of intuition and potentially adds Hidebound.

OK, that's probably necessary.

Well, I'm just being really overzealous applying "skills for everyone". Craft secret is probably the opposite, the advantage provides the ability to do it, the skill just makes it easier to succeed.

I think it's from Psionic Powers.
