Talents
Improved Hull Integrity
The ship’s hull has been reinforced to hold together better under stress and damage. The ship’s Resistance is increased (already included).
Improved Warp Drive
The ship’s warp drive is more efficient, capitalizing on improved field dynamics, better control of antimatter flow rates, or some other advancement that allows the ship to expend less energy when travelling at warp. Whenever the ship spends power to go to warp, roll 1 for each Power spent; for each Effect rolled, that point of Power is not spent.
Modular Laboratories
The ship has considerable numbers of empty, multi-purpose compartments that can be converted to laboratories as and when required. At the start of an adventure, the crew may decide how the modular laboratories are configured; this configuration counts as an Advantage which applies to work performed within the laboratories.
Rugged Design
The ship is designed with the frontier in mind, with a durable construction and easy access to critical systems that allow repairs to be made easily. Reduce the Difficulty of all Tasks to repair the ship by 1, to a minimum of 1.

Chief Security Officer
When the operations manager succeeds at a Task assisted by the ship’s Computers or Sensors, or using a tricorder, the character generates one bonus Momentum, which may only be used on the Obtain Information Momentum Spend.
Talents
Bold: Security
Whenever you attempt a Task with Security, and you buy one or more d20s by adding to Threat, you may re-roll a single d20.
Proud and Honorable
Whenever you attempt a Task to resist being coerced into breaking a promise, betraying your allies, or otherwise acting dishonorably, you reduce the Difficulty by 1.
Telepath
You can sense the surface thoughts and emotions of most living beings nearby, and can communicate telepathically with other empaths and telepaths, as well as those with whom you are extremely familiar. The character cannot choose not to sense the emotions or read the surface thoughts of those nearby, except for those who are resistant to telepathy. It will require effort and a Task to pick out the emotions or thoughts of a specific individual in a crowd. Unwilling targets may resist.
The Ushaan
You are experienced in the tradition of honor-dueling known as the Ushaan, having spilt much blood upon the ice. When you make a melee Attack, or are targeted by a melee Attack, and buy one or more d20s by adding to Threat, you may re-roll the dice pool for the Task. Further, you own an Ushaan-tor, a razor-sharp ice-miner’s tool used in these duels.

Talents
In the Nick of Time
Whenever you succeed at an Engineering or Science Task as part of an Extended Task, you score 1 additional Work for every Effect rolled.
Mean Right Hook
Your Unarmed Strike Attack also has the Vicious 1 Damage Effect.
Percussive Maintenance
You have an extensive repertoire of quick fixes, crude bypasses, and other improvised techniques for using and repairing devices during a crisis. They all do the job, but it’s messy work. When you attempt a Control + Engineering task, you may add 2 to Threat to use your Daring instead of your Control. If you do this, and the task succeeds, you may reduce the time taken by 1 interval without spending Momentum.
Prehensile Tail
While most Caitians have some functional control over their tail, characters with this Talent have worked to increase their control over the appendage to the point of it becoming fully functional. This provides the character with the ability to hold and operate an additional piece of equipment, like an additional hand. In addition, the character gains a bonus d20 to any Fitness Test to maintain balance or to climb.

Cultural Flexibility
When you attempt a Task to learn about an unfamiliar culture, or to act in an appropriate manner when interacting with members of such a culture, you reduce the Difficulty by 1.
Psychoanalyst
When you use the Medicine Discipline during a Social Conflict you may increase the Complication range of your Task by a number of steps. For each step you may ask a single question as if you’d spent Momentum on Obtain Information. Complications generated from this Task results offend or upset others, because they feel being “analyzed.”
Untapped Potential
The character is inexperienced, but talented and with a bright future in Starfleet. Whenever the character succeeds at a Task for which they bought one or more additional dice with either Momentum or Threat, they may roll 1 Challenge Die. The character receives bonus Momentum equal to the roll, and adds one point to Threat if an Effect is rolled.

Calm and Logical

I’m a Doctor, Not an Engineer!
Once per adventure, before attempting a Task using Engineering, a point of Determination may be spent to substitute the character’s Medicine Score in place of Engineering till the end of the scene.

You have learned numerous techniques for the stimulation and control of nerve impulses — collectively called neuropressure.
