Editing Lancer: In Golden Flame: Downtime (section)

==PITCH IN==
You volunteer for extra work shifts and get down to the difficult business of keeping Hell’s Gate running for another week. It’s tiring, dangerous and often thankless. But this is work someone needs to do, and if nobody volunteers, you’re all just drifting.

This could be straightforward work, like maintenance, cooking or farming, or it might be more social, like education, medical care or even entertainment.

Explain the work you’re putting in and roll:

On 9 or less, you do more to hinder than help. You get in the way, make poor decisions or distract other workers. After a couple of days, you’re asked not to show up for shifts anymore. Take +1 difficulty to interactions with the Gate’s residents until the next downtime.

On 10-19, with a staggering amount of effort, and many nights with too little sleep, you’re able to make some headway in tackling the station’s innumerable problems. Gain +1 accuracy on interactions with Hell’s Gate residents until the next downtime.

On 20+, you solve a major problem that was causing a lot of people grief. Tick one segment on the Station Stability clock, and gain +1 accuracy on interactions with Hell’s Gate residents until the next downtime. If multiple characters take this action, roll once for each character and take the best result instead of applying
each result individually. The Station Stability clock only gets incremented once, but social bonuses or penalties apply to all participating characters.
