Requires: 1+ ranks in Nature

Over downtime you train an animal in one specific action. Choose to reinforce a basic action it already knows (usually from Command an Animal) or to teach it a new basic action. The GM sets the DC and how long it takes (usually at least a week); tricks that need critical thinking are usually impossible, and higher Nature ranks may let you train more unusual creatures. Success: it learns the action. A reinforced action can then be commanded without a Nature check; a new action joins the list it can perform when commanded (you still roll as normal). Failure: it doesn't learn it.
