Skill 3: Understanding Animals

Basically, each wolf in Wolf's Rain has a trait they specialize in. Toboe's is hearing and thus listens to and understands all animals around him. If they want, he can also engage in conversation with them.

What does this mean in Aather? Basically, Toboe can communicate with any animal creature from pets (including incests, lantern owls, rockziles) to Pokemon to baby dragons to probably animals that are unlocked. I'll say he can't communicate with the Old Flame, but he can communicate with the Ladyfingers (not that he'll likely have the chance.)

So if you ever wanted the chance to develop a personality for your team/character's pet, THIS IS YOUR CHANCE.

Also, this post is for if you DON'T want Toboe to talk to your pet.
