Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition - Nonweapon Proficiencies

Version History

Version 2.0 ● April 1, 2024

Twenty-five years ago, I uploaded this page for anyone who may find it useful. Eventually, Google Analytics came along, and I was astonished to find hundreds of people (new and returning) visit this page every month! I am shocked so many people utilize this resource! The internet has changed drastically in two-and-a-half decades, and I've added Datatables functionality to make the table searchable and downloadable.

If you find this useful, check out some of my other RPG Resources, my game company (Black Falcon Games LLC), my blog, or just drop me line and let me know how you found this site and your thoughts!

Version 1.0 ● January 4, 1999

Having been involved with the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons game for over a decade, I amassed a large collection of source books, rule books, magazines, and boxed sets. Ever wanting more unique and diverse characters, I implemented every new proficiency I could find. Unfortunately, it is impossible to remember the details of every single proficiency, and finding its description again can be a nightmare. Thus, I designed these charts for my own campaigns and hope somewhere, someone else will find them useful.

These listings include proficiencies from just about every campaign world imaginable. Some go well together, and others are obviously of no use outside their intended context. As most of my campaigns evolved into Spelljammer and Planescape games, my characters have a miasma of knowledge.

Many times, proficiency details were given without any note of whether they are General, Warrior, Rogue, Wizard, Priest, or Psionicist proficiencies. I have place such where I believe that they should go, and it is possible that you will disagree with some of my organizations. Also, there is some duplication in proficiency names. Where these are found, the proficiencies are sufficiently different to warrant both of them being listed. It is possible that some proficiencies can be found in sources other than what I cite here. I cite the source of proficiencies from the rules that I actually use.
