Jump (skill)

Jump (Str)
Determines the maximum height when you are jumping.

Note: Certain side quests can only be accessed with a reasonable jump skill. Carrying some potions of jump or receiving the jump spell can allow you to access these side quests. There is a soft cap on the Jump skill at 40, any higher number makes no difference in the height that you can jump. However the jump skill also decreases the amount of damage you take from falling from great heights much like the tumble skill, just at a slightly lower percentage, and this does continue to reduce the damage you take past 40.
