The button on the [[Main Toolbar]] brings up a window showing a table with all the (non-Baby) Clanfolk in the player Clan, and all employed [[Workers]]. The left column of the table is an icon listing of all 16 in game Skills, ordered as shown below. The neighbouring column has a few buttons to rearrange Clanfolk priorities for the Skills.

Each Clanfellow will have one disliked Skill, with up to three red frowning faces by the Skill icon. Similarly a Liked Skill will have up to three smiling faces. When the Clanfellow does tasks or Jobs using those particular Skills they will lose or gain Mood respectively.
