>Due to their resilient metallic construction, droids start the game with one rank in the Enduring talent. (Copied from INORGANIC.)
<><>INORGANIC<><>
>Droids do not gain the benefits of recovering with a bacta tank, stimpack, or Medicine skill checks.
>Droids do recover naturally by resting, as their systems attempt self-repairs.
>Droids can be tended to with a Mechanics check, using the same difficulties and results of Medicine checks for organic beings.
>Emergency repair patches can be used to repair damage just like stimpacks are used on organic beings. (Page 220 contains more information on Droid repairs and healing.)
>Due to their resilient metallic construction, droids start the game with one rank in the Enduring talent.
<><>MECHANICAL BEING<><>
>Droids cannot become Force sensitive, nor acquire a Force Rating by any means.
>Droids cannot use Force Powers.
>Droids are unaffected by mind-altering Force powers.
<><>DROIDS AND EQUIPMENT<><>
>Droids don't typically wear clothing, and many items of equipment that organics would have to carry separately may actually be part of a droid's body. For this reason, droids are allowed to treat certain pieces of equipment differently than other characters.
>If a droid purchases and wears armor, the player can simply say his character has upgraded armor plates on his body, or a reinforced outer covering. Likewise, he could have an upgraded verbobrain instead of a datapad, or an internal communications device instead of a comlink (although many droids do carry equipment such as datapads and comlinks).
