An understanding of how sentient creatures think and feel, based on careful study of the shape of their skulls. This base skill represents your overall Phrenological prowess. (Phrenology skills provide critical-hit chances to all Psychology and Mentalism attacks against the corresponding type of creature. Phrenology also has more esoteric uses.)

Phrenology is a skill that is acquired from Glajur in Kur Tower. It is raised by studying skulls from various humanoid creatures.

Acquiring Skulls

Skulls are acquired by using the option "Extract skull" on a slain creature. Similarly to butchering and skinning skills, a tool is required in the inventory. The first tool, called a Skull Extractor can be bought from Glajur.

Note that skulls can be found before this skill is acquired. They are sometimes looted from skeletons and jars in Eltibule Crypt, and in Kur Tower.

Skulls come in a variety of shapes, based on the races of Alharth, such as Human, Elf, Orc and Rakshasa. There are also "impressive" versions of the skulls which are worth more favor with Glajur.
