Mechanic = Decreases FTL fuel required, compounding with each additional Mechanic. The wiki is unclear as to what this really means. Engineer = Makes the ship about 10% faster. 
Depending on their specialty, they give you Glow, Rage, Speed, or Jump boosts.
Chemist = Gives you stat boosts like the Medic (permanent on-ship, temporary off). If you talk to them, you can make your current clothing the official team uniform, and the rest of the NPCs will switch to your outfit. Janitor = Completely useless, except for mediocre combat support in a Landing Party. Medic = On the ship, gives permanent Regeneration. If you get too far away, they will beam to your location.Įvery crew member has a different, beneficial ability either on the field or on the ship. When you press E to interact with any member of your crew that’s not a Tailor, they reveal their weapons and follow you. The Crew’s AbilitiesĪll crew members (except for Tailors) can be a part of your Landing Party. In the next section, I focus on the roles of your crew members, and how to use them. This can take awhile, so don’t count on Penguins being your first crew members. They can be hired with a dubloon purchased from the Beakeasy, but only once Dreadwing the Penguin has been defeated. Some of you reading this may know that you can also hire Penguins as mercenaries (they are always Soldier class). Yellow = Chemist (Four different types of Chemist exist, explained below). 
They come in various colors, depending on their job. The villagers/Tenants, if you complete enough quests (and get lucky), will put on a Protectorate Uniform like the one you start out with. Both were Avian, and, due to RNG (Random Number Generation), they both turned out as… janitors. Personally, my first crew members came from a village. Of course, you can always decline a quest if you’re not ready, and most villages have more than enough quests. These range from finding lost friends, to supplying crafting materials, to defeating rogue criminals. If you can, complete it for them, and they might ask to join your crew (explained below). Eventually, the Tenant may give you a quest.
Buying a Colony Deed from Frogg Furnishings, placing it in a valid house, and getting a Tenant (this guide doesn’t really cover that kind of thing, so I’ll explain briefly). Once you do beat that stage, there are two main options: Of course, you’ll need to defeat the Erchius Crystal Mining Facility before hiring any crew, because you’re bound to a single planet until then. As the Starbound Wiki states: “Crew members of most races can be obtained by gaining favor with regular, non-merchant NPCs through quests.” I wasted probably almost an hour on that once, and believe me, I’ll never do it again.
