More university rules for FASA's Star Trek RPG.

These are for characters wishing to be Ship's Counselors, who would most likely be Betazoid. But Deltans could attend these programs since they are telepaths.

Of course, Humans could attend the University and be counselors, but would not have the empathic or telepathic advantage.

Vulcans would be a fansinating choice, but hard to play. They have all the mental abilities, but how do they relate to the emotional well being of the crew?

As GM work with the player to create an awesome character.

Special Rules

Some players may not wish to attend Starfleet Academy, but still wish to serve as counselors. These rules help create that type of character.

The program is an eight year undergrad and doctorate combined.

After graduation characters enter Starfleet with the rank of Lt., but it is honorary. An honorary rank means the character is afforded the respect and privilege of the rank but not the authority. This means a ship's counselor with the honorary rank of Commander would have to obey the orders of an Ensign in all non-health related matters.

Character creation would proceed like so: Create attribute scores and pre-academy skills according to the rulebook. Skip the Academy, Cadet Cruise, Department Head and Command School sections and use the skill table below. Then continue with the post- academy experience until character is complete (including skill advancement).
