     A couple of people asked about this so I figured I would post it.  Its
my first attempt at a template so if anyones got any suguestions let me
know.  I wanted to include a new skill called salvage but I havent made it
yet.  It would basicaly be a skill used to help determine the most valueable
and salvagable parts on a wreaked ship. The dificulty would go up with the
ammount of damage to the ship and its age (ie archaic).  
     Again, my writing styles a bit rusty so please excuse the descriptions.

New Template:  Prospector/Salvager
Species: Human
Description: Prospectors are characters who try to make a living
scrounging for precous minderal on distant stars.  They are similar to
the Cynical Scout template in that they often find themselves on
unexplored worlds in there presute of a quick score.  They are equaly
skilled at mining for ore as they are of stripping wreakage for parts.
Wether doing mining surevey for a corperation or mining on his own
claim the prospector is always keeps an eye out for easy money.

Personality: The Prospector doesn't want to speand long hours behind a desk
or marching
arround and saluting.  Why bother when all you have to do is find the right
place to dig then retire. 
If you dont strike it big quick, well, it could be worse, you could be
working for a living.

Objectives: Retire young.
