Grants
2-POINT PULLING STRING
PREREQUISITE: INFLUENCE (CIVILIAN, PARANORMAL, OR SCIENCE & RESEARCH)
Every scientific endeavor must be funded, and grants are a good way to obtain ready cash. When a research project has some merit to a funding organization, the requesting character may receive a grant. Once every six months, the operative can make a grant check with a Routine Admin/Legal or a Routine Leadership check. If successful, he receives 20 RP worth of resources that can be spent on labs/workshops, staff, and/or equipment related to specific research, expeditions, or other related science projects. Every grant comes with $10,000 in disposable income. If no useful results are forthcoming to the granting organization over the next few months, the equipment will be repossessed, staff will stop receiving salaries and leave, and lab space will be torn down and returned to the grantor. If results are forthcoming or partially reveal new technology, the character can make an additional grant request every six months until the project has reached its conclusion or the flow of useful information stops. If results lead to breakthroughs in new technology, new sciences (such as nanotechnology), or proof of alien existence, all resources may be retained by the character.
