I am fiddling around with a Firefly themed ship. So am rolling up various characters as practice.
This got me to thinking about University as a Pre-Career chioce. Clearly the Doctor went to Med school.
If Age 18-22 he went to university, took Medic 2 and Biology 1 for example. That works well enough to get a job as a Medic.
It got me to thinking about a PhD student. How do we create someone with advanced training.
One option might be to allow a Second term in University. This allows for an advanced degree (PhD). Cutting back on the EDU bonus and allowing more skills instead (more Sciences or Engineering skills to allow cybernetic specialists for example). I am not completely sure, just trying to figure out how to make a Doctor.
The Scholar Profession Physician (page 40) might be an option. First term of this new career would allow a selection of a skill from the Service Skills. This could allow Medic 3. This makes promotion useless since Physician advancement is Medic 1. Oh well.
Of course adding skills with a massive Edu bonus may mean a fast study to add in a few skill levels in other useful skills as the game progresses.
So the character might be very limited in skills (at first), but a lifesaver in the Medbay.
But this still does not make for a PhD graduate.
Any ideas?
