Ok, I'm writing up a Barbarian off to see the universe character. I'd like for him to be a little useful around the ship so I'm trying to make him an ex-Barbarian.
However I'm not sure if he'd still penalties on using technological items. The THB on p. 41 mentions that an ex-Barbarian "no longer suffers a -2 penalty when attempting to use technology related skills" but doesn't say anything about using technological itesm.
So my Barbarian who can shoot a bow while riding upside down on a horse will still be -2 when shooting any gun or even after being shown how to use it?
I guess this could represent a lingering fear of or unease with technology. Any suggestions, clarifications, or home rules?
Thx,
Casey
