[Bug][0.623b]I'm getting strange bonuses to skills without any companions

[ksha]

Hello,

          I'm playing 0.623b from nexus and noticed that I'm getting strange + bonuses to skills in the party screen. I tested it out making a new character and cheat to level up a certain skill for example Surgery. I boosted Surgery up to level 8 but in party screen it shows "Surgery ( 8 )(+3)" without any skill books or companions at all. I'm all alone by myself so it couldn't be bonuses from companions either. It applies to all party skill. For example, if I boost Surgery or other skills to 10, it shows (10)(+4) without any companions or skill books in my inventory.

That is strange. Perhaps it has something to do with your background?

Likely what you choose for the start of your character and what their background is such as nobility or thief, etc.

I'm a bit late to answer this question, but this is just vanilla Warband skill bonuses. You receive a bonus to party skills based on the level of your skill. You receive a +1 from having that party skill at two, +2 from five, +3 from eight, and a +4 at ten.
