| Physicians can perform [[Surgery]] to treat many Conditions - broken bones, some infections, infestation by horrible alien parasites, etc. Surgery can be risky, and may fail or even have negative consequences for the patient.

Any character with Physician can assist other characters performing a Surgery. | Physicians can perform [[Surgery]] to treat many Conditions - broken bones, some infections, infestation by horrible alien parasites, etc. Surgery can be risky, and may fail or even have negative consequences for the patient.

| - | Engineers can fix damaged items and damaged armour. A character with 1 rank in the Engineer skill can spend 2 minutes roleplaying to repair an item that has been damaged with the SUNDER call or to restore 1 lost Armour Hit to a single location. Each additional rank of the Engineer skill you possess reduces the time required by 20 seconds (to a minimum of 20 seconds). So with Engineer 2, you can perform a repair in 100 seconds, with rank 3 it will take 80 seconds, and so on. After rank 6 (20 seconds), you cannot get any faster at repairing things without using some kind of special artefact, tech device or similar. | + | Engineers can fix damaged items and damaged armour.

| Engineers can also do work between events to improve their equipment, as long as they can afford it. Each rank of the Engineer skill allows you to work on 1 lammied item in between events - either maintaining it to extend its life, or applying a Mod to it to make it better. Items that require maintenance, and can be modified are referred to as [[Devices]], and should have a Mod and Maintenance cost indicated on their laminated card (lammie). You can either apply a Mod that you know to the item, or extend its lifetime for 4 more events - both of these uses will cost a certain amount of Credits to buy materials and extra services to get the job done. Items that you wish to work on (and the credits to pay for them) must be handed in with your pack at the end of the event. The more Mods that an item has, the more expensive it is to Mod it further and maintain it - see the [[Devices]] page for more details. | Engineers can also do work between events to improve their equipment, as long as they can afford it.
