==Overskills==

A new development in the wake of the Catastrophe, an Overskill is a unique skill created either through the creative use of an existing skill or spell (for example, creating walkable platforms mid-air simply by casting a Kannagi's normally-vertical barrier spell '''horizontally''), or an unforseen interaction between a Class skill and a Subclass skill (Nyanta's Cook subclass plus a high level in the Cooking skill = crafted food that tastes like real-world food instead of just bland biscuits).  Once discovered, Overskills can be taught to other players, but the one who wants to learn must meet the skill or subclass combination requirements to do so.

In general, Overskills range from convenient (being able to cook tasty food is always welcome), to useful in combat (being able to create shadow clones that can do actual damage), to absolutely world shattering if anyone else learned about it (Shiroe being able to turn a Lander into an Adventurer as long as he has the rare materials required for the "contract").
