v0.10.1 Supporter Update

Evening all, it's mid-month update time! This cycle was all about Specialists, with a lot of functionality work towards setting up Specialist recruitment, and a few scenes to get Choker in particular onto the crew. With that work out of the way I'll be spending the rest of the month trying to catch up the Seedcarrier's storyline a bit. I'll also note that tonight's Patreon post features a sneak preview of the new goblin faction portraits, as well as some more details on the plans for Specialist relationship advancement. Check out the post here, or the patch notes below. Enjoy!
