I'm posting this before I post classes because it's important. 
Iron Heroes uses a different system of spending skill points than D&D, which allows characters to gain more skills and to achieve full competence in skills outside their class's specialties. There are no cross-class skills - maximum ranks for all skills are 3+character level. However, each class gains access to one or more skill groups. When you spend a skill point on a group that your class offers, you gain a rank in every skill in that group.
The skill groups are:
Academia: Appraise, Concentration, Decipher Script, Heal, Knowledge
Agility: Balance, Escape Artist, Tumble
Athletics: Climb, Jump, Swim
Mysticism: Concentration, Decipher Script, Spellcraft, Use Magic Device
Perception: Listen, Search, Sense Motive, Spot
Robbery: Disable Device, Forgery, Open Lock, Sleight of Hand
Social: Bluff, Diplomacy, Gather Information, Intimidate
Stealth: Hide, Move Silently
Theatrics: Bluff, Disguise, Perform, Sleight of Hand
Wilderness Lore: Handle Animal, Ride, Survival, Use Rope
