Proficiency in the History skill

You studied and analyzed innumerable monsters and creatures, allowing you to get a good grasp of their capabilities with a single glance. You gain the following benefits:
Analyze. As an action, you can analyze a non-Humanoid creature within 60 feet of you. You learn which of its ability scores are “low” (score of 7 or lower) and which are “high” (score of 14 or higher), as well as its saving throw proficiencies. Once you have analyzed a creature that way, you know this information for all creatures using the same statistics.
