engineering to aid: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Rerouting reserve power to thrusters.

Over commsThen lets set course. Come on Stagg, fly it like you stole it.

piloting: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 Yay competence
Well if we are near the imps border we should all get to battle stations. Vicis leaves to attend engineering.

So Rex, how did you end up babysitting these two?

Don't worry Kek, you should be a pro on the guns. I can manage engineering at need. Can't seem to figure out the OS though. K'teskt, how are you on computers?

I can, but I was hoping to spend some quality time with that main gun. Sounds like Stagg has a crush, anyway. Looks over at Fenrus,Though I am sure we can make time if you would rather get out and walk Keebler.

+8 piloting, so I can be a backup if necessary

Vicis ignores the young woman and makes his way around the ship. Learning its layout and examining its weapons and defensive systems.

culture: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3 Yay obliviousness

Oh, OK, a proper dog. Vicis smirks, without registering that Melody could be confused and offended by his comment.

Vicis shudders as he mutters "Dogs" before making his way to docking bay 4.

Right, so other than it being cold and near the Imps, we are going in blind. Vicis's eye takes this moment to fail again. After more banging and cursing he continues. If there is nothing else, lets get to it.

Vicis goes over the ship in detail, putting far more effort in to studying it than he has any of his new team mates.

Light and fast with some serious firepower in the forward arc. I like it. Should be able to punch way above her weight class if we have a good enough pilot.

I can handle piloting or gunnery well. Can do a C+ job of engineering if we get desperate.

Since we have already lost one team, and presumably, the ship in orbit, what do we have for specs on your ship Doc?

"At least we know where and when. That is more than a lot of assignments." Vicis shrugs. "When do we ship out?"

Like we bother to stand for this child.
"Of course, Colonel. How can we assist?"

Vicis doesn't bother to look up from his project. "The application of force in all of its beautiful forms. Plus specialist training in demolitions, first aid and piloting."

Vicis pulls out a small electronics kit and begins tinkering with something.

From the SRD:

OPERATIVE’S EDGE (EX) 1ST LEVEL
Your diverse training as an operative grants you a +1 insight bonus to initiative checks and to skill checks. This bonus increases by 1 at 3rd level and every 4 levels thereafter.

SPECIALIZATION 1ST LEVEL
Your specialization represents your primary area of expertise. Pick one specialization upon taking your 1st level of the operative class. Once made, this choice cannot be changed. Your specialization grants you the Skill Focus feat in your specialization’s associated skills, and you gain a free skill rank in each of those skills at each operative level (this does not allow you to exceed the maximum number of skill ranks in a single skill).

SKILL SYNERGY
You understand how two skills work well together.

Benefit: Choose two skills. These skills become class skills for you. If one or both were already class skills, you gain a +2 insight bonus to those skill checks instead.

Special: You can take this feat multiple times. Its effects don’t stack. Each time you take it, it applies to two different skills.

So it's not really clear.

Sadly they would not. Both are the same type of bonus.

Skill Focus

You are particularly Adept at a certain skill.

Benefit: Choose a skill. You gain a +3 insight bonus to checks involving the chosen skill.

Special: You can take this feat multiple times. Its effects don’t stack. Each time you take this feat, it applies to a new skill.

Vicis glares at Fenrus and begins to respond but stops when K'teskt enters.

Vicis, Corporal, Rapid Response. The being speaking is a battered android, more cyber than bio. Some of the parts appear to be of exceptional quality, the others, more recent perhaps, appear to be salvage. So, did we all screw up or do the higher ups have something extra special in store for us? His left "eye" begins making a loud whine and changes colors rapidly. He clenches his fist and bangs the side of his head a few times, until it returns to normal. Fekking goblins. He grumbles.

Here is Doomguides character. Or at least what he may look like in many levels.
