	**''Place Explosive Device:'' Carefully placing an explosive against a fixed structure or vehicle (a stationary, unattended inanimate object) increases the damage dealt by exploiting weaknesses in its construction.  The GM makes the check (so that you don’t know exactly how well you’ve done).  On a result of 15 or  higher, you ignore the damage reduction of any object to which the explosives are attached.  On a result of 25 or higher, the explosive deals double damage to the structure or vehicle against which it’s placed.  On a result of 35 or higher, it deals triple damage.  In all cases, it deals normal damage to all the other targets within its burst radius.		**''Place Explosive Device:'' Carefully placing an explosive against a fixed structure or vehicle (a stationary, unattended inanimate object) increases the damage dealt by exploiting weaknesses in its construction.  The GM makes the check (so that you don’t know exactly how well you’ve done).  On a result of 15 or  higher, you ignore the damage reduction of any object to which the explosives are attached.  On a result of 25 or higher, the explosive deals double damage to the structure or vehicle against which it’s placed.  On a result of 35 or higher, it deals triple damage.  In all cases, it deals normal damage to all the other targets within its burst radius.

	*'''First Aid (requires a medpac): '''</span><span style="color:#2b2b2b;">As a full-round action, you can administer first aid to  an unconscious or wounded creature.  If you succeed on a DC 15 Treat Injury check, the creature regains a number of hit points equal to its character level, +1 for every point by which your check result exceeds the DC.  Using a medical kit grants ~~a +2 equipment bonus~~ on your skill check.  If the skill check succeeds, the tended creature cannot benefit from additional first aid for 24 hours.

	*'''Long-Term Care: '''</span><span style="color:#2b2b2b;">If you tend to a creature for 8 consecutive hours, that creature regains hit points equal to its character level in addition to those recovered from natural healing (see Natural Healing, SECR 148).  A creature can only benefit form long-term care once in a 24-hour period.  You can tend one creature at a time if untrained, or up to six simultaneously if trained.  You can’t give long-term care to yourself.</span><span style="color:#2b2b2b;">		*'''Long-Term Care: '''</span><span style="color:#2b2b2b;">If you tend to a creature for 8 consecutive hours, that creature regains hit points equal to its character level in addition to those recovered from natural healing (see Natural Healing, SECR 148).  A creature can only benefit form long-term care once in a 24-hour period.  You can tend one creature at a time if untrained, or up to six simultaneously if trained.  You can’t give long-term care to yourself.</span><span style="color:#2b2b2b;">
	*'''Perform Surgery (Trained Only; requires a surgery kit): '''</span><span style="color:#2b2b2b;">You can perform surgery to heal damage to a wounded creature, remove a persistent condition, or install a cybernetic prosthesis.  Any of these operations requires 1 hour of uninterrupted work, at the end of which time you must make a Treat Injury check, the DC of which varies depending on what you are trying to do.  If you fail your check, the surgery does not yield any benefit (but any resources used are still lost).  In addition, if you fail your check by 5 or more, the creature takes damage equal to its damage threshold.  If this damage reduces the creature to 0 hit points, it dies (see 0 Hit Points, SECR 146).</span><span style="color:#2b2b2b;">		*'''Perform Surgery (Trained Only; requires a surgery kit): '''</span><span style="color:#2b2b2b;">You can perform surgery to heal damage to a wounded creature, remove a persistent condition, or install a cybernetic prosthesis.  Any of these operations requires 1 hour of uninterrupted work, at the end of which time you must make a Treat Injury check, the DC of which varies depending on what you are trying to do.  If you fail your check, the surgery does not yield any benefit (but any resources used are still lost).  In addition, if you fail your check by 5 or more, the creature takes damage equal to its damage threshold.  If this damage reduces the creature to 0 hit points, it dies (see 0 Hit Points, SECR 146).</span><span style="color:#2b2b2b;">
