Translocator Master Technician

MOS choice for Enlisted and commissioned Union Fleet personnel.

After serving as a Translocator Technician for a minimum of three years the Translator Technician can apply (or is offered) to attend Special Weapons Service School . All three of them are located at undisclosed locations[1]

Before the TT is allowed to attend the so called BLEACH process must be completed ( Stringent Security Back Ground Check + Brain Dump ).

The technician further receives a new Psi Shield (either at the Sares Center for Advanced Psi Technology or at the Union Fleet Psi Tech Institute at Leedei Junction )

The technician further receives a Hypno Block and a Cortex wipe Implant . The Hypno Block prevents the individual to even mention his specialty and the Cortex Wipe implant can destroy his entire memory[2] All TMT have a kill phrase. A series of words they can say to activate the Cortex Wipe .

TMTs are then authorized to learn all there is to know about Translocator technology and are able to perform maintenance and repairs on all levels.

Officially TMTs are listed as Environmental Technicians in their non classified personal files. TMTs of species that have distinctive physical features such as faces, fur markings, feeler nodes are required to hide those features while on duty such as masks, fur marking alterations, feeler extensions etc.

While on duty they do not use their names, and are addressed as TMT ( Only Super cruisers and bigger have one or more TMTs on duty) They are allowed to share their names with their Technician Staff.

In some occasions the ChEng holds the TMT specialization but has similar restrictions. In general the TMT has no higher authority aboard (The Captain has no authority to ask names, ranks or order the TMT to do anything outside of : Fix the TLC, perform Maintenance, etc)

TMTs are the result of fleets truly fanatic, almost religious approach to keep the TLC secret. Nicknamed the “Omertàs

TMT receive the TL Bonus which is their pay according to their pay grade x 3

A TMT that gets promoted, transfers or retires away from the Translocator department receives partial Psycho surgery to remove all knowledge of technical nature, but is then allowed to wear the TMT ribbon on his Uniform or tell others what he was.

(No active TMT has any ribbon displays on his uniform – he only displays the patch and the letters TMT.
