Skill Discriptions
Coordination
Your character should use this skill if…
- You wish to perform delicate or precise physical actions, like setting an explosive.
- You wish to perform 'slight of hand' tricks.
Your character not should use this skill if…
- you wish to act against another character undetected, such as when pickpocketing. That is Stealth.
Commerce
Commerce represents the knowledge and understanding an individual might possess about microeconomics, macroeconomics, trade practices, business relations and business operations. Such skill is deeper than mere knowledge of the subject’s existence and principles, and instead reflects a degree of familiarity and ability to utilize and manipulate to the character's advantage. This skill differs from Knowledge: Imperium, which would cover individuals and company information, as well as from Knowledge: Education, which would cover economic theory and history. Commerce deals with the heart of trade and profit in the Imperirum.
Your character should use this skill if…
- Your character wants to get the best price for a shipment of goods.
- Your character wants to establish charters, trading agreements, or companies
Your character not should use this skill if…
- Your character wants to get the best price on a few items from a particular individual; this is governed by Negotiation.
Helm
Helm represents the skills and training to maneuver the massive, kilometer long vessels that ply the space lanes of the 41st Millenium. Unlike driving a land vehicle or piloting a small craft, voidships do not have wheels, sticks, or other forms of direct control. Instead, the Helm must manage and react to changes in dozens, if not hundreds, of power and thrust readings to manage inertia, gravity and other phenomena that would call a voidship off its course.
Your character should use this skill if…
- Your character wants to dock an engine damaged voidship with the repair port.
- Your character wants to take a cruiser through an asteroid field without damage.
Your character not should use this skill if…
- Your character wants to operate a spacecraft direct controls or a cockpit; this is governed by Pilot.
- Your character wants to operate a massive land vehicle: this is still governed by Drive.
- Your character wants to perform rutine, open-void travel.
Navigation represents the skills and training to read charts and maps, as well as using the various navigational tools of the 41st Mellenia. Navigation, even in its most basic form, involves careful study, cryptographic understanding, and mathmatical precision. It differs from survival, which is focused on immediate situations and unknown variables, and from Astromancy, which studies the star systems themselves rather than the routes within or between them.
Your character should use this skill if…
- Your character wants to use a map to determine the character's location.
- Your character wants to plan a route through the warp to another star system.
Your character not should use this skill if…
- Your character wants to find a way around an immediate hazard, such as a rockslide; this is governed by Survival.
- Your character wants to know about star systems or stellar phenomena: this is governed by Knowledge: Astromancy.
- Your character is finding their way around a well-marked area with a clear map.
