Gameplay:	When meeting a new person you must subtract your Paranoia level from your Reaction roll. Others will react to you with a -2 to their Reaction roll.

Misha has Paranoia=3, but she is in need of money, so she heads to the local pub to try to pick up some work. There, she meets "Mad" Leslie a sea captain who is recruiting new deckhands. Misha and Leslie both roll 8 Reaction dice. Misha initially gets 6 Ss, but must subtract 3 from that result due to her paranoia. She ends up with 3 Ss, meaning a 3 chemistry level toward Leslie, which equates to dislike. Leslie gets only 4 Ss, but needs to subtract 2 from that result, leaving her with 2 Ss - hatred. It looks like Misha will not be working for Leslie at this time.
