&lt;h2 id=&#34;what-it-does&#34;&gt;What it does&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;code&gt;ABILITY&lt;/code&gt; tag is used to select the choice presented by an
&lt;code&gt;ADD:FEAT&lt;/code&gt; chooser in a class level line.  The Feat choices parameter
must match the choices used in the &lt;code&gt;ADD:FEAT&lt;/code&gt; this &lt;code&gt;ABILITY&lt;/code&gt; is
selecting for.  The Feat to select should be a valid selection but this
is not checked by the kit.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;example&#34;&gt;Example&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;code&gt;LEVELABILITY:Ranger=1 &amp;lt;tab&amp;gt; ABILITY:PROMPT:FEAT(TYPE.Favored Enemy)|CHOICE:Favored Enemy (Humanoid (Elf))&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

the old ability key as part of the migration to a new ability key.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The &lt;code&gt;ABILITY&lt;/code&gt; tag is used in conjunction with the

&lt;p&gt;&lt;code&gt;ADD:ABILITY|w|x|y|z,z..&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;parameters&#34;&gt;Parameters&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;w: Number, Variable or Formula (Number of
choices granted. Optional)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;x: Text (Ability category to which this ability
will be added.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;y: Text (Nature of the added ability)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;z: Text (Ability name or KEY)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;z: TYPE=Text (Ability type)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;what-it-does&#34;&gt;What it does&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Will add a number (w) of abilities from the presented list (z) and
will assign it a category (x) and nature (y).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The ability list is a comma-delimited (&amp;ldquo;,&amp;rdquo;) list of ability names
and/or types.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Valid ability natures are &lt;code&gt;NORMAL&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code&gt;VIRTUAL&lt;/code&gt; .&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If the ability being added has a chooser &lt;code&gt;ADD:ABILITY&lt;/code&gt; is the only
tag which will activate it ( &lt;code&gt;ABILITY&lt;/code&gt; alone will not).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;example&#34;&gt;Example&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;status&#34;&gt;Status&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Updated 5.17.4&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;syntax&#34;&gt;Syntax&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;code&gt;
CHOOSE:ABILITY|w|x|y|y[x]|y[x,x]|x,y,y[x],y[x,x]&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;parameters&#34;&gt;Parameters&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;w: Text (Ability category)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;x: Text (Ability name or key)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;x: FEAT=Text (Feat, by name or key)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;x: TYPE=Text (Ability type)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;x: !TYPE=Text (Prohibited ability type)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;x: ALL&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;y: ANY (Default)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;y: PC&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;y: QUALIFIED&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;what-it-does&#34;&gt;What it does&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Will present a list of abilities of the specified category that
matches the stipulated criteria.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Using the &lt;code&gt;FEAT=Text&lt;/code&gt; sub-tag will provide a list of abilities
chosen by the referenced feat. The feat referenced must contain a
&lt;code&gt;CHOOSE:ABILITY&lt;/code&gt; tag.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Global qualifiers work with abilities. Use of the qualifiers has the
following effect:

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ANY&lt;/strong&gt; - Will return a list of all abilities of the designated
ability category.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PC&lt;/strong&gt; - Will return a list of all abilities already taken by
the Player Character.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;QUALIFIED&lt;/strong&gt; - Will return a list of all abilities that the
player character is otherwise qualified for.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Qualifiers can be logically negated by prefacing with the
exclamation point (!), i.e. &lt;code&gt;!PC&lt;/code&gt; is a valid usage.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Criteria can be logically combined by using the comma (,), logical
&lt;strong&gt;AND&lt;/strong&gt; , and the pipe (|), logical &lt;strong&gt;OR&lt;/strong&gt; . Logical &lt;strong&gt;AND&lt;/strong&gt; s are
evaluated before logical &lt;strong&gt;OR&lt;/strong&gt; s.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The &lt;a href=&#34;./list/global/other/select.html&#34;&gt;SELECT&lt;/a&gt; tag is used in
conjunction with this &lt;code&gt;CHOOSE&lt;/code&gt; tag to define the number of
&amp;ldquo;selections&amp;rdquo; that can be made.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;example&#34;&gt;Example&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;code&gt;CHOOSE:ABILITY|FEAT|TYPE=Rogue Abilities&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A list of all &amp;ldquo;Rogue Abilities&amp;rdquo; type feats will be presented.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;code&gt;CHOOSE:ABILITY|Special Ability|PC[TYPE=Mercy]&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A list of all &amp;ldquo;Mercy&amp;rdquo; type abilities will be presented.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;where-it-is-used&#34;&gt;Where it is Used&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;li&gt;x: Text (Ability category)&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;z: Text (Ability name or key)&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&#34;what-it-does&#34;&gt;What it does&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Adds an ability, of the given category and nature, to a character.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The listed Ability Category must have been defined in the
appropriate &lt;em&gt;gamemode/miscinfo.lst&lt;/em&gt; or &lt;em&gt;abilitycategory.lst&lt;/em&gt; file.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Valid Ability Natures are NORMAL, AUTOMATIC, or VIRTUAL.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When adding an ability to a category, that category&amp;rsquo;s pool will be
charged only if the &amp;ldquo;Nature&amp;rdquo; is NORMAL.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When including a feat with an internal chooser, subchoices can be
handled one of two ways.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;-   Subchoices must be specified within the tag. (e.g. Weapon Focus
    (Longsword)).&lt;br /&gt;
     or

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Used in conjunction with the &lt;code&gt;CHOOSE&lt;/code&gt; tag, &lt;code&gt;%LIST&lt;/code&gt; can be used
with this tag to provide the required choice.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The standard list for the ability category will be used to find a
matching ability.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;ABILITY tags can be qualified with &lt;a href=&#34;./list/global/pre.html&#34;&gt;PRExxx&lt;/a&gt;
tags unless they use the &lt;code&gt;%LIST&lt;/code&gt; parameter. ABILITY tags qualified
with PRExxx tags will not be added unless the character meets
the prerequisites.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;For specific infomation on the &lt;code&gt;.CLEAR&lt;/code&gt; tag, read the
&lt;a href=&#34;./list/global/other/clear.html&#34;&gt;.CLEAR&lt;/a&gt; docs.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This tag is a replacement for the following tags: FEAT, VFEAT,
and FEATAUTO.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Note:&lt;/strong&gt; This tag &lt;strong&gt;WILL NOT&lt;/strong&gt; activate a CHOOSER inside of a feat. You
must use &lt;a href=&#34;./list/global/add/feat.html&#34;&gt;ADD:FEAT&lt;/a&gt; to activate a chooser
inside of a feat being granted.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;code&gt;ABILITY:Special Ability|AUTOMATIC|Wild Shape(Small Animal,Medium Animal)|PREVARGTEQ:DruidWildShape,4&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This shows an example of Abilities with sub-choices being granted in a
shorthand manner. Same as the above and grants the Special Ability &amp;lsquo;Wild
Shape (Small Animal)&amp;rsquo; and &amp;lsquo;Wild Shape (Medium Animal)&amp;rsquo; as an automatic
ability. Note: The Comma delimiter.&lt;/p&gt;
