      Strength/athletics check.

      Success: you kill the person. The coordinator presses a button and a smart restraining net robot launches from the ceiling and pins you down. “Congratulations! You’ve been identified as a prime candidate for a military career. You’re going to need that pay boost, because unfortunately we’ll have to charge part of that technician’s reconstruction fee to your tab.” You feel a needle pierce your neck and your vision goes dark.

      Failure: The technician manages to pin you down until a smart restraining net is deployed to hold you. “Congratulations! You’ve been identified as a prime candidate for a law enforcement career. We like that kind of fighting spirit for keeping criminals off our streets.” You feel a needle pierce your neck and your vision goes dark.
