[RPG] How to you make custom skills for Fate

fatefate-coreskills

How does creating custom skills in Fate core work? Can you just say "I want this skill" and get away with it or is there some sort of preset rules such as designing stunts and such for the skill before adding it to the game? To be specific, I want to create a skill called Magical Engineering as my character will not be knowledgeable about lore or be able to craft most of the things.

The Fate SRD deals with creating new skills in its System Toolkit section. It goes into considerable detail including modifying the basic list by addition or removal of skills and grouping skills into "modes" or "professions".

You might want to define a "restricted access" skill as an extra.
