Hey everyone. I just picked up the GSC (very neat!) and had a question about one of the exploits given to Synthetics:
Does this mean that a synthetic character being created at grade 5 should have only four careers, since they skip their origin? Or do they still take five, just picking a normal career instead of an origin for their first pick?
If the latter, this seems like a pretty large benefit. A lot of origins are pretty weak, and getting a head start on a career (especially one like the military which has a long chain of picks) could be really good!
Factory Specs. Synthetics do not take an origin career; they come fully formed from the factory and enter their first full career immediately.
