MOTHERSHIP Skill Packages Crowdsource

Here are the skill packages used in the Character Generator. Suggest more in the comments, and I'll update this post, adding them in and crediting you. Then I'll update the Generator to include them.

The Generator uses already-existing skills from the Mothership player's survival guide. If you make up your own skill, I won't be able to use it in the Generator (though it could still be a great suggestion).

Takeaways from this experiment:
-Creating backgrounds has shown us that it is not so difficult to build a skill package that well-represents a certain concept, but it is much more difficult to decide which class that skill package belongs to, and sometimes, to get that skill package to be compatible with any class at all.
-It is difficult to create skill packages for Androids.
