Define keywords that allow you to tag associations across forms.
Some keywords are used by game systems, such as the weapon attachment system, and those are covered in the [[#Types|Types section]] below. Other keywords are ''semantic'', which means that they're used to describe things. For example, Bethesda uses the semantic ''ActorTypeRobot'' keyword on every robot actor (and modders should, too!), so [[conditions]] can check for that keyword to see if they're dealing with a robot, even if the robot belongs to a modded or DLC [[race]].
