 //Riggers don’t study machines, they just get them. Hand one a busted relic from a long forgotten colony of extinct xenofauna and they’ll turn it over in their hands, squint a little, and tell you it was meant to scramble eggs or broadcast at 42.8 megahertz. Doesn’t matter how alien, ancient, or jury-rigged the tech is; they know what it’s for. Ask how and they’ll shrug, maybe say the universe told them. Truth is, nobody really knows. Maybe it’s Thool exposure, maybe instinct, maybe something else humming in their skulls. Whatever it is, a Rigger can look at a tangle of wires and see purpose where everyone else just sees smoke.// \\

 ==== Got A Screw Loose ====
 //Every Rigger’s got their thing. Some tap the hull three times before a D'jump. Some have to line up every bolt head in a perfect spiral. Some can’t start a repair until they’ve muttered their favourite cereal mascot's catchphrase under their breath. They know it’s strange — hell, they’ll be the first to admit it — but knowing doesn’t make it stop. When the urge hits, it’s an all-consuming compulsion. The world shrinks to a single unfinished ritual until it’s done, no matter how small or how long it takes. Most of the time, it’s harmless but when it isn’t, it can grind a Rigger to a halt, trapped in a loop only they can see. Other spacers envy their insight, their way of seeing what no one else can, but they don’t see the cost. For every flash of genius there’s a shadow of compulsion, and the Rigger lives between the two, trying to make peace with both.// \\
