Discoveries
Knowledge: Akin to secrets, but not always quite as dangerous, lost and hidden knowledge can be a powerful asset.
Eons of conflict caused vast storehouses of knowledge to be lost amid the rubble of destroyed cities, derelict ships, and abandoned space stations. Intrepid Explorers are the miners of that knowledge, bringing it back into the light of day for all to benefit from. Archaeologists are naturally inclined to search for knowledge, as are Fringers and Traders.
Obligations
Blackmail: 20
An ancient custom that seems never to lose its power to make people act against their will. For an Explorer, there are many interesting and creative ways it may apply. A Trader may have a history of skimmed profits to hide. An Archaeologist may have once plagiarized someone's findings for a presentation to secure funding. A Big-Game Hunter may have once killed someone on a hunt, never knowing someone else recorded the incident. A Driver may have fudged the data on a particular machine he was hired to test, only to have a number of deaths result from his faulty information. Such incidents can weigh heavily on the mind and heart of a being
