How it grows

Like every skill it runs from 0 to 100 and rises a tenth of a point at a time as you use it: quickly while it is low, hardly at all on work far beneath you. Each attempt trains it, whether it works or not.

All your skills together hold 700 points. Set Snooping to rise, fall or hold in the Skills window (K). A people that is good at it starts 10 points higher, 15 on its own path, and raises it a fifth more often for life.

Using it can also raise your stats a point at a time, leaning towards: Dexterity (80%), Intelligence (20%).
