Skr-Slip-Stream (Psikinesis)
Base(s): Psikinesis
Usage (aspect): provenance -> Tech
◊ strike(w/act, R, 1fp) -> chk(strike)= +M(Psiportation) +R* +Vcl-Striker
-> imp(sv,Focus, 18-R*) -> insanity-1(mishap)
& poss shorter navigation times
Mishap: insanity-1 (acquired on first ranks)
Description: Navigate more efficiently improving your strike roll.
This technique represents your focus on efficient navigation. Here you are looking to optimise paths, take depth soundings and react to their changes. Once you have ranks (R) in Skr-Slip-Stream you are able to use it as an aspect on Psiportation for the purposes of the strike roll.
This gives you a better modifier, but crucially, it gives you access to benefits from exceeding the strike challenge (C). Using this skill, for every 5 points you exceed the strike challenge (C), you may reduce the duration of the strike by 10%. Slip streaming navigators are, of course, extremely valuable in interstellar commerce.
See the explanations under the Psiportation skill for details on other aspects of the strike roll and the imposed save against the viscous envelope.
