Complete Reference
As a space fantasy setting, all of the core skills are available to player characters. However, the technology and unique environments of a high-tech setting expand the scope and function of many skills.
Core skills listed here include the modifications to skills listed in the SRD. All skills old and new are fully described in their entries.
Gravity Check Modifier
A number of new and old skills suffer penalties based on local gravity. The modifiers are not actually affecting your expertise with a particular skill; instead, they impact your Strength and Dexterity scores. More details on gravity can be found in the Worlds section of this site.
