Mirror Trox

You have a large family, with many children, nieces, and nephews, and you’ve learned how to coordinate even the most unruly and fractious of groups when necessary. When attempting or assisting a Task, and two or more other characters are involved in the Task, the first Complication generated on the Task — either by the character attempting the Task, or one of the assistants — may be ignored.

Whenever you attempt a Task with Engineering, and you buy one or more d20s by adding to Threat, you may re-roll a single d20.

Whenever you attempt an Engineering Task to perform repairs, you may reduce the Difficulty by two, to a minimum of 0. If you do this, however, then the repairs are only temporary and will last only a single scene, plus one additional scene per Momentum spent (Repeatable) before they fail again. Jury-rigged repairs can only be applied once, and the Difficulty to repair a device that has been Jury-rigged increases by 1.

Whenever you succeed at a Conn Task to identify a type of starship, or to try and understand an unknown form of Starship, you gain one bonus Momentum, which may only be used on the Obtain Information Momentum Spend, or to pay part of the cost of the Create Advantage Momentum Spend (where the Advantage must represent some form of known or observed weakness in the ship being studied).

Engineers understand that safety tolerances and operating margins are always designed into the acceptable performance range of equipment. While not recommended the equipment is usually capable of higher performance, if the consequences are risky. This Talent provides bonus Momentum for using a ship’s System until the end of the scene. Select the System you wish to enhance, and the number of bonus Momentum to be provided. Attempt a Daring + Engineering Task with a Difficulty equal to the bonus Momentum selected. If the you succeed, subsequent Tasks using that System automatically generate that amount of bonus Momentum. However, to represent the risks involved, the Task also increases its Complication Range by the same number as the Bonus Momentum provided. If a Complication is rolled, the System no longer provides bonus Momentum and the System suffers a number of Breaches equal to half the ship's Scale.
