In a way things like making a general skills function are great, it makes
generic skills easy to add, but it encourages adding generic skills with
little differences.... like, bash you need a weapon, backstab it needs to
be piercing, etc... and things like, backstab should have a dex modifier,
but bash should have a strength modifier.... things like that are less
encouraged to make the difference in skills when they become generic...
