{{toc-right}}
You can find [[Skirmish Trainer]]s in any [[Skirmish Camp]] or [[housing]] area. Traits can be acquired and upgraded by bartering [[Item:Mark|Marks]] and are divided in four tabs, '''Attribute''', '''Skill''', '''Training''' & '''Personal'''. Some traits can only be used by a particular soldier role.

When you complete the introduction quest [[Quest:Skirmishes|Skirmishes]], you receive a "free" role and a few traits usable by this role.

== Attribute ==
[[Item:Skirmish Field Manual - Traits|Skirmish Field Manual - Traits]] excerpt: ''Attribute traits come in two types: Role traits and cosmetic traits. The Role trait determines the fundamental role your soldier will be filling. You may only equip one Role trait, and it will dictate some of your later trait choices. The Role trait will change your Soldiers armours and weapons, as well as their basic abilities. For instance, the Archer role has medium armour and does good ranged damage, while the Protector has heavy armour and low damage, but draws aggro well. The cosmetic traits allow you to choose the hair colour, hair style, clothing and even race of your Soldier.''


Here are the different roles available from the [[Skirmish Trainer]]:
