'''"Grease" - Ship's Engineer / Blob'''
 
 
 
Grease is a polite, sweet-natured blob that the crew found inside their engines after one adventure.
 
Turning out to be a friendly genius with machines and saving their bacon, they made him part of the crew.
 
 
 
Much of his ability derives from actually oozing inside seams and crevices of the machinery itself.
 
He in fact loves to sleep like this and explore strange new machinery. So the crew named him "Grease".
 
 
 
He seems to be a huge mono-cellular organism, possibly a part of a vastly larger being, although no one has ever seen anything similar to his kind.
 
He has complete amnesia about his past, but considers the crew his new family.

You can re-root the energy in the ship, with a Engineering roll to either the shields, engines or weapons giving it a +2.
 
It has to come from somewhere, though: so either one of the other systems will get a penalty -2 during this round, or you overload the system, and next rounds will give a -2 until you've repaired it.
 
If you have a raise on your roll, there are no negative effects.
