 Apprentice

|---|---|---|---|
| Description: | By attentively watching what their mentor does, the apprentice can quicky pick up the same knowledge and actions.

| Learned by: |  Stephen 5
|
If  Mush:
|
Kept |
Stephen's signature skill which, at last, turns the badass cook into an interesting and useful character. The fact that another crewmember has to have the skill you want to learn, and be alive, will not let you fill in missing roles, but it does serve well as a backup if you have inactives - or Mush you are about to kill. Also useful if you just need more people with crucial everyday skills like 
Technician and 
Pilot.
For personal 
from fighting aliens, Stephen has an incentive to learn 
Astrophysicist to increase the number of expeditions, and 
Polyvalent, 
Diplomat, 
Botanist or 
Survivalist to secure a place on the expedition team.
To just help the ship in a general way, the best support skill would be 
Logistics Expert.
Most of all, though, this skill can be used in very interesting ways when copying rare signature skills, as in having two 
Genius crewmembers, two 
Shrinks boosting morale, seven cameras from 
Paranoid, or up to twelve hydropots from two people with 
Green Thumbs.
The effects of 
Mankind's only hope and 
Strateguru do not stack, but if Chun or Jin Su are about to die, you can replace them in these roles. Also the 
Tracker's list can only be printed once.
TODO: What happens if two 
Politicians both stage a coup in the same cycle? And then when the "winner" dies?
