[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 7117600, member: 2012"] I was thinking about this the other day. Nornally, all a character has to do is spend enough time living in a technological society and then be able to take the Technical Proficiency feat. At this point, even with instruction, your PC takes a -4 circumstance penalty on all ability checks, skill checks, and attack rolls using high-tech devices. And you can't take feats that require the Technical Proficiency, such as the Armor Proficiency (Powered) feat or, say, the Implant Spellware item creation feat. However, Sil would be able to take Dragonstar feats that don't require the Technical Proficiency feat, within reason. She could take these feats from the SFH: Crack Shot, Etiquette, Improved Far Shot, Information Junkie*, Mobile Shot, Pressing Attack, and Temperature Tolerance. *This feat gives a +2 bonus on Gather Information and Research checks. While the Research skill doesn't require the Technical Proficiency feat, it's tough to use it without access to an advanced library. It could be used in Candlekeep, I guess. The Dragonstar skills that require the Technical Proficiency feat are as follows: Demolitions (Int; must be trained), Pilot (Dex), Repair (Int; trained only), and Use Device (Int). The other new Dragonstar skills are as follows: Cryptography (Int; must be trained), Freefall (Dex), Navigate (Int), Research (Wis), and Urban Lore (Wis). [B]From the SFH:[/B] "Characters from Outlands worlds (like Toril) may take it for free once they have spent one full level gaining experience with advanced technology. A character could meet this requirement by adventuring in the Empire, training in an Imperial enclave on an Outlands world, or traveling with others who are equipped and experienced with high technology." So, from the RAW, the PCs from Toril could take it since you all went up by four levels. However, that bulk of that experience wasn't really the result of interacting with high technology. I would say if you invest in Dragonstar feats and learning Dragonstar skills, you can get to it faster. A minimum of two DS feats or 1 feat and at least two levels worth of learning DS skills (as cross-class skills). And, you could try to learn DS spells too, but let's not get ahead ourselves. [/QUOTE]
