Well, if Ithuriel doesn't post, Ghost will have to take point in freak alley. A stick (intimidation) and carrot (money) approach seems the most likely to succeed for him so that's what I'll do later tonight unless Stonegod post another course of action.
Any way (other than telepathy) to tell if someone's been touched by mental powers? Or just psi in general? Ghost has hunches, but probably not the right skillset.

Second, Shayuri, I encourage you to join as well. It would be nice to have another player and a vitakinetic is the one missing available discipline we need.
Also, from a narrative standpoint, you could be the 'innocent bystander who gets caught up in the action.' Which is great for character development and another point of view. And on a purely selfish note, this old D&D player always appreciates a 'cleric' for healing.
Now to hopefully prove Stonegod's dire prophecies false.
I will get some stats cobbled together, and re-read the story so far to get an idea of where the character is.
Concept is evolving, but right now I'm looking at a young-but-promising vitakinetic who has only recently become a full fledged "doctor," as it were, and still has a healthy dose of idealism, and is still trying to prove herself.
I will certainly be giving her skills not only in general medicine but also forensic analysis and sciences.
Any other suggestions as far as skills? The character is fairly cerebral...I don't see her as starting out with much in the way of combat skills. Y'all can teach her those if she lives.
Do Kerry have read any article produce by the Dr Grawbosky? If yes, he will add to his speach that he has liked his article about XXX and how he has demonstrate with the YYY method... just to flatter him a bit and see that he is with a fan...

Device would likely be a tool...sensor, perhaps, or medical aid...but my materials for Trinity are woefully incomplete. I'm working from some files for another game that fell through, not the actual book.
Any help appreciated!

That looks good stat wise, though Psi score should be 5 (Everyone starts at 4 +1 from freebie).
What background do you have in mind? One suggestion is that this PC could be the Forensic pathologist who conducted the autopsy. she's unhappy with the way her conclusions are being handled and decides to contact the Trinity agents.
edit ; on second thought, better make it an intern assistant to the pathologist. At 23, you ain't a forensic pathologist yet!

Velmont; Grabowski used to be a big shot in the Research department at Montressor. He wrote some papers that you would have heard of, most focusing on taint disease, in particular nerve degenerative disease. He was also knonwn for his controversial stands on studies on abberancy. Given the menace humany face, he often argued in favor of pushing the enveloppe of ethic boundaries. In fact, his deontology and ethic paper have had wider circulation that his researched. He was always more of a manager than a researcher, though.

He's the head honcho at the clinic and there is no higher ranking doctor on Luna, or for that matter off-earth. His direct superior is Dr Gemma Fiosi, director of the clinic network, who in turn answers only to Proxy Zweidler himself. They are both working from the HQ at Montressor, Switzerland. All of this is common knowledge for anyone familiar with the orders and is otherwise available on your minicomp with a simple research; we're talking big shots here.
Grabowski's file indicate that he was a close friend of Zweidler in the early days of the order though they must not be as close at they used to considering his current location. His current post is very prestigious, but Zweidler's inner-circle is at the HQ, obviously enough.

Oh, I thought the 4 was a minimum. Sorry bout that.
I think I'll tweak the sheet a bit to fit the 'intern' theme better. I like the idea that the character is low on the totem, and therefore can't help the team through 'official channels' much.
I am fuzzy on the difference between Citizenship and Membership. Help?
Also, if anyone knows of a good two-dot device (or two one-dot) for a doctor/scientist, I'd love some suggestions.
I don't see any Membership background. It isn't in the Core or Player's Guide.
Citizenship is just that. You can be a citizen of multiple countries which is highly advantageous if you travel- or live somewhere like Luna where you might pass between jurisdictions by moving across Olympus. Imagine the airport when you go through the short line of light inspections for citizens, or the "are you a criminal?" line for non-citizens. It also might come into play as for what legal rights you have when arrested by a certain country, or possibly with extradition.
Membership would seem to be directed at an organization which is covered by Status.
Player's Guide:
Clearance (counters Cipher with special database access), Identity (under cover identity), and Requisition (ability to borrow gear for the job)
Gear wise- there is a medical agent for your minicomp designed as a field agent by the Aesculapians if you are so inclined. Maybe it wouldn't have been appealing considering you don't work in the field? Anyways it is named Hippocrates, Performance 3, Cost 4, loaded with medical applications.
So...
Device OO: Can give 1 bonus die to a common roll, 2 bonus dice to a less common roll, or can merge functions of 2 similar peices of low level tech into one item. Alternatively you can take 4 Device O items.
Here is some brainstorming. Just tossing stuff out. Maybe something will catch your eye and you can work out the details with Mal.
A specialized meditation application on your minicomp which monitors your vitals and the agent "meditation coach" adjusts tact to help you relax. +2 meditation (helps you recover Psi faster)
A tranquilzer gun that fires customizable darts (you can choose the drug if you prepare ahead) (Maybe a handheld variation on the sprayers found in America Offline)
Portable medical kit with a specialized agent. Gives a better bonus on medical teamwork rolls.
A customized hovercycle (if we leave Luna during the story you might get screwed here)
A hover board (not in the book, but if cars and motorcycles can hover, why not?)
A "free pass" in the criminal areas of Luna. A bonus to a social roll granted as favor for saving the life of a notable gang figure, or multiple figures over time. Maybe they granted a token of some sort (gang bandana, mask, jacket whatever) you can show to pass through their domain unmolested.
A specially cultivated digital library on you minicomp. Bonus to academic rolls.
Customized Banji laser scalpel. 20 charge battery instead of 10, removes the +1 diff penalty to use it as a weapon. (Like a laser short sword, or maybe rapier)
An opaque holo-projector. Imagine something small you can drop on the ground which will project a pre-programmed full body real looking hologram. But it can't move out of the area it is standing (where you dropped it) or say anything you didn't preprogram. High chance to lose this though after using it for a distraction.
