Resuscitation/Life Support

Resuscitation/Life Support is an Advanced Function for crew members. To learn about other functions, go to the Space Ship Functions section of the Space Ships page.

Description

If the correct Medical Bay or Facility is provided, then a Medic can attempt to move the recently decided character to the Medical Bay and resuscitate them. As long as the mass majority (90% or more) of the person's body is intact and they are not missing their brain. The resuscitation takes a standard action, and the move does as well. If successful, the Character is unconscious, has 1 HP, and has a Constitution Score of 1. Follow the Health and Injury rules for more information. They cannot be dead for more than 12 hours unless the Bay/Facility specifies otherwise.

A Classification Level 1 Medical Bay or Facility can keep a dead body in statis. Or can keep a dying Character that cannot be healed at that time on Life Support, keeping them alive until they can futher be further helped.

Note

To qualify for Resesutation, the Medical Bay or Facility must be masterworked and at least Classification Level 3.
