Is there a Sensation Merit option (Like Sage/Crafty but for perform skills?)

-Performer: (Physical/Social) 3/6
You have a natural talent for a specific sort of performance, and can pick up and try just about any different form with relative ease, so long as it falls within your natural talents. When taking this advantage, for each rank purchased, you can choose to gain a bonus to one of the following fields. When making a roll for a skill that falls within your chosen field(s), you count as always having at least one rank in the skill, regardless of whether you actually have one.
  • Physical: Any perform skill which utilizes natural athleticism or dexterity, this includes many sports, dancing, physical comedy, or acrobatics.
  • Social: You have a natural talent in front of others - applying to any acting, oratory, comedic, or auditory performance.

Would the armory contain any bomb detection gear that someone skilled in demolitions could use to sweep the ship?

Nope - generally don't use explosives in ship-board combat. So a player would need to have a demo kit to have that kind of technology on hand - that or you'd have to convince Lucretzia to break out scanning equipment early.

possibly a stupid question, but is there a "view your posts" function somewhere? I can't find it on this forum. If there isn't, any chance of getting it added?

You can click your profile and 'search users posts' to find all your own posts, but I frequently use the 'view unread posts' to find everything I haven't read yet.

It's also not a bad idea to create a schedule post in your personal forum where you can post links to all your threads each in game day.

Hmm, was kind of hoping for the easier traditional "view your posts", which gives a much easier overview of your active threads.

I'll see if there is any way to add that - I don't really know phpBB that well so I can't say for sure.
