The Mainframe
The MainFrame is Merci-Ki11’s headquarters and consists of several different buildings, each of which serve a distinct purpose. The main building has three floors connected with an elevator, of which the cadets only have acces to the first and second floor. There’s also an underground interrogation area.

Mass-produced weapons are fine and all, but sometimes, you want something with a bit more oomph to a certain aspect of a weapon.
Activity
You spend the entire day taking a weapon apart and putting it back together, while making small modifications to how it works, to attempt to improve one aspect at the cost of another. Firearms can get +1 damage at the cost of -1 to hit, or vice versa. Grenades can be made lighter and get +10ft range at the cost of a -5ft area of effect, og get a heavier payload to get a +5ft area of effect at the cost of 10ft range.

Results
On a succesful check, the weapon is modified as specified. On a regular fail, you manage to put you weapon back together like it was before (no modifications), and expend a single attempt.
On a critical failure (10 or more below DC), the weapon is so crudely put together that it only gets no bonus and double the penalty; grenades will get single penalties, but to both range and area of effect. On a critical success (10 or more higher than DC), the weapon gets its desired bonus with no penalty

When headed into an environment you know to be infectious, such as a settlement stricken by a plague or a toxic jungle, you can spend your downtime taking preventative measures.
Activity
Specify a single disease or poison other than radiation or radiation sickness (Core Rulebook, pp. 418-19). You spend all day researching preventive treatments for that affliction. At the end of the day, designate up to six willing or unconscious creatures you can touch.
Attempt a Medicine check for each of these creatures; the DC is 5 higher than the DC of the specified affliction. Each creature must choose whether or not to accept your treatment before learning the result of this check.
Results
On a success, a designated creature gains a +4 circumstance bonus to saving throws against initial exposure to the specified affliction. This doesn’t apply to creatures currently affected by that affliction, and doesn’t stack with bonuses from medicinals. It does, however, stack with natural resistances, such as an Android's Constructed racial feat.
On a failure, the designated creature takes a –2 penalty to saves against initial exposure to the specified affliction. The success and failure effects end after 1 week.

MediCens lab lets you analyze the contents of a sample and potentially deduce what it is made of and/or where it's from.
Activity
You spend the day analyzing a physical sample of a creature or material. The sample must have at least light bulk, and anything below is considered unviable.
Results
You know as much about the sample as if you had rolled a nat 20 for the relevant skill to identify the sample: Engineering for a technological or hybrid item; Mysticism for a magical or hybrid item; and the relevant creature type skill if the sample is from a creature (Core Rulebook, p. 133).
If you aren't trained in the relevant skill, you will automatically fail. Even if you ARE trained, the GM can still rule that the sample is from a creature or material too rare or unusual to be identified in such a manner.
Multiday bonus
For each consecutive day you spend on this downtime activity, you gain a cumulative +1 circumstance bonus to your check, up to a maximum of +5.

Sometimes, you really want something, buuuuuut at that price? C'mon, can't you knock a bit off? I've been a loyal customer for years, so make a bit cheaper for me, yeh?
Activity
Choose an augment or medicinal with an item level at least 5 lower than your character level that is available in MediCen. Attempt a Diplomacy check with a DC of 20 + half the item’s level. You can’t take 20 on this check, and the GM decides if the item is in storage.
Results
On a success, you manage to haggle 10% off the normal price. On a failure, you are unable to work out a deal, but you can still purchase it at full price.
Multi-day bonus
If you spend a week haggling, you can choose a piece of equipment with an item level just 3 levels lower than your character level.
