The character has skill in
manufacturing metals and fashioning things from them. The use of
this skill is very dependent on the technological background and the
materials at hand.
At low tech levels, the
character could be a tinker, blacksmith, weapons maker, or armorer,
and could fashion alloys and make castings of them. At higher tech
levels and with more equipment, a character could forge, cast, and
mill various specialized grades of steel or more advanced alloys. At
the highest levels, work can be done with various ceramics,
crystalline metals, fluid or plastic metals, and dense and
superdense metals.
This skill can be combined
with the Mechanics, Electronics, and Ship's Engineering skills to
fashion machine, electronics, and engineering parts, respectively.
