'''Creative''' is a skill which gives you a 50% chance to gain 1 {{AP}} after a failed action. As such it is most effective when performing many cheap tasks that have a high chance to fail, like shooting [[turret]]s, repairing equipment, and extinguishing fires. - Or, notably, searching for hidden objects.

Extinguisher-stealing {{skill|Pyromaniac}} scenarios aside, this makes it superior to the {{Skill|Firefighter}} ability for {{Character|Roland}}, as it is more flexible in its uses and will also make him more efficient in his main job.

{{Character|Stephen}} can probably get the most use out of it when he uses {{Skill|Apprentice}} (or a book) to become a creative {{Skill|Technician}}. Though it is also a helpful in combat, especially in combination with {{Skill|Solid}}, and in combination with free actions from {{skill|shooter}} and the like, which ''can'' trigger it and create regular {{AP}}.

Still, the overall gain is only mediocre for a skill of the highest level, as you will have to ''fail'' an average of 8 actions ''per day'' to make it compare to better {{AP}}-saving skills like {{skill|IT Expert}}.

Lastly, this will make it a lot easier to solve the {{Item|MAD Cube}}. So you may not get shot quite as quickly by your crewmates for trying, even though it will still be a useless and selfish thing to do.
