Hello there!
Well, to start, sorry that I have quite several skills being requested for here. Going through the backlog to distribute the available xp and whatnot, I've gradually updated Rickter's CS as it hasn't been done since Spring/Summer last year. With that said, these are the skills I'm asking to elevate in competency with the examples provided for them.

Intimidation
Level: Expert
Goal: Master
While Rickter has proven a bit of a softy to those he loves and feels comfortable around, that hasn't hidden the fact that he can be super protective. His temper has gotten the better of him now and then, and a times he's used it as a means of protection when that anger doesn't control him.

Meditation
Level: Expert
Goal: Master
Rather a crucial skill that's become a core part of Rickter's skillset, his prowess with Meditation has allowed him to introspect himself through Negation, and after the fact he's relied on it as a means of refining his awareness over the arcane. Mastery of this skill shall see him further build upon it with further introspection and even philosophical situations.

Seduction
Level: Expert
Goal: Expert
As a character who has spent over a decade side hustling himself at the Velvet Cabaret, Rickter's skills in the art of Seduction seemed best suited to be capped at the expertise level. He's been within the business long enough to know how to apply the skill selectively, and only does it when circumstances seem fitting to rely on the skill overall.

Scrivening
Level: Master (Expert -> Master)
Goal: Master
Rickter picked up Scrivening as a support style magic for his travels, gradually learning to refine the craft for himself throughout his career in the arcane arts. His application of it has allowed him to actually perform pretty incredible feats, from aiding Lyra during the desolation of Zaichaer, to performing stunts that have allowed him to reach places such as Terra Nimbus. The significance of mastery behind this skill heavily stems from his time spent creating an artificial "cold storage room" at the Red Rock Citadel in Solunarium, as a great deal of time and work went into refining and maintaining the sigils created. The result of the sigils in this cold room produce Frostlyth shards overtime, and given that Rickter/Lykos is the Lord of Frost himself; the cold room hosts some of that Divine energy to continually produce these dragonshards every winter.
*The threads listed below are intended to qualify his Scrivening skill for Expert level, as well as the buildup into Master level also. If the completion of the Cold Room plot is necessary, then this request or another can be admitted afterward to justify the mastery of Scrivening once the conditions have been met.

And to be added on Winter 1st 123 AoS, A Certainty of Cold which will verify the completion of this Cold Room.

Tracking
Level: Expert
Goal: Master
While he hasn't actively used this skill to track down certain individuals or quarries, Rickter's reliance on his sense of smell has allowed him to identify a -lot- of things in his vicinity. As a wolf Rathari his olfactory senses have been used to rely on scents to determine certain informational factors, such as particular smells people give off to even changes in a person's mood. Mastery of this skill ties in with his ability to track down a particular subject, integrating the other senses while he relies on his sense of smell.
*I can actually go back and thoroughly pick out more examples of this, but due to the extensive list of threads that may take up a bit more time. If needed, then I'll update the list accordingly to suit the conditions for meeting expert level.

Two-Handed
Level: Expert
Goal: Master
As a wielder of a Bastard Sword, Rickter's proficiency with one/two-handed weaponry has developed due to it's interchangeable use of application. With the weight of the blade he has learned mostly to fight with it one-handed, though, the use of it with two hands has become a staple for performing heavier hitting attacks against his foes. Mastery over Two-handed weaponry continues to develop where Rickter refines his prowess using other two-handed weaponry, such as spears or staves, as well as heavier weapons such as a greatsword.
