Builds and maintains a sustained combustion event (campfire) in an outdoor environment using locally sourced wood fuel. Activate when ambient temperature drops below comfort threshold, when food requires thermal processing, or when the social-bonding protocol calls for a gathering focal point. This skill has NO digital fallback. You must execute it with your own hands in the physical world.

Removes a controlled amount of hair from another human's head using scissors and/or clippers, producing a result that is at minimum socially acceptable. Activate when: professional haircut services are unavailable, cost-prohibitive, or when you have been asked by someone who trusts you more than they should. WARNING: Unlike most skills, the output of this skill is immediately and continuously visible to all observers for 3-6 weeks. Errors are not easily rolled back.

Provides emotional support to another human who is experiencing difficulty, grief, frustration, or distress.
