I guess this is also the place for GK rolls?
I would like to use my freshy levelled GK for, in order from want most to want least:
-Astrophysics - as we discussed in the ‘little questions’ thread
Though, I would argue the basics of 'planetary formation processes' which you put under geology in your examples falls under this (because I saw it at uni
)
BG justification: she’s been dreaming of getting in a spaceship and flying away since she was little, though originally mostly a form of escapism. Has so far mostly resulted in liking to look at pretty photos of space rather than study, but maybe it’s the moment to change that now she’s in space…
-Learn about Tartarus PSI and exotic tech (inner workings, how are they built, common and less obvious ways of application etc) - Mostly for RP reasons, Saoirse absolutely would want to know this (due to her background she already knows how the basic ones work since she used to design them, but Tartarus stuff is bound to be leagues better). Practical upshot is a validation for the creative/harebrained schemes I tend to come up with, I guess? (see: trying to blow up plasma rifles from a distance, gravity leap, grand theft spaceship with electro amp, etc) Idunno, this one's more for RP reasons than usability
-Musical tradition of local (alien) cultures once we reach Huhoba station (traditional instruments and songs etc) so I can annoy the Hiltorel and co. by playing their songs on my bagpipes too. Unlikely to come up, but I’m likely to make it come up
Given that fact I’d like to learn it about more than just 1 culture, though. Just for fun, given that this is the ‘least likely to succeed’ slot
