Augments:
Cybernetic Arm Prosthesis : The Cybernetic Arm Prosthesis replaces the user's organic limbs with enhanced-function mechanical substitutes. The augmentation allows the user to engage in impressive feats of close-quarter unarmed combat. As the user gets comfortable with her new arms, the range of available skills widen to include punching through light walls, displacing heavy objects (dumpsters, vending machines, etc.), and compensating for weapon recoil.
The Cybernetic Arm Prosthesis is an augmented artificial limb built on a framework of advance polymers and lightweight metal. In place of organic musculature, these augmentations utilize myomers -- bunches of electro-stimulated plastic cable that mimic the actions of muscle tissues, but to a greatly strengthened degree. In combination with tiny motors and shock absorbing liquid polymer buffers, these cyber-limbs are capable of far exceeding human physical abilities.
Implanted Rebreather: Concealed in the chest cavity, this augmentation activates in the presence of airborne toxins such as tear gas or aerosol poisons, rendering them ineffective. It cannot reduce damage from airborne radioactive contaminants or particle energy effects. Secondary functionality adds an additional 'reservoir' of oxygen in the bloodstream, allowing her to surpass the normal limits of fatigue associated with sustained sprinting.
The Quicksilver Reflex Booster : Essentially a supercharger for the human nervous system, boosting reflex speed and the firing of nerve clusters throughout the body. The direct effects of this means that the user is capable of reacting for faster than a 'normal' person in a dangerous situation, enabling her to move quickly with split focus to engage more than one adversary.
The Quicksilver Reflex Booster is a decentralized augmentation connected to nerve bundles in the legs, to a distributed set of disc implants in the spinal column, and to other elements of the body's vestibular system (which controls balance and agility). Working in concert, these elements send and receive digital pressure signals to a series of implanted integrated circuits, granting increased agility and corporal control.
The Icarus Landing System: A discreet augmentation surgically implanted in the user's lower back, slightly above the coccyx at the base of the vertebral column. The device has an accelerative descent sensor built in; in freefall, the unit will automatically activate the patented High-Fall Safeguard System, an EMF decelerator generating a fixed-focus electromagnetic lensing field, projected downward along the plane of the drop. This field pushes against the Earth's magnetosphere and slows the user's descent to a manageable velocity, allowing her to fall from almost any height.
Sentinel RX Health System: is a combination implant that uses electro-cardio action, adrenal stimuli, and protein therapy to fight infection and injury through a limited "regenerative" capacity. While it is no replacement for medical care, it can keep a user alive in the most critical of circumstances. A decentralized augmentation made up of several smaller units; the primary components are a series of hair-fine sensor probes connected to all vital organs, providing real-time biomedical data to a central health monitor unit. This unit tracks the medical condition of the user and triggers secondary modules when it registers the incidence of critical damage, through internal or external trauma; these modules are implanted in the heart tissue, the lymphatic system and adrenal glands, and utilize micro-electric charges and phased-released chemicals to stimulate the human body's healing reaction. The Sentinel RX Health System comes fitted as standard with an Implanted Cardiovertor Defibrillator capable of restarting a human heart up to eighty times without requiring a recharge.
Glass Shield Cloaking System : Bends the light hitting the user, rendering her practically invisible. The effect will work on any wavelength that is part of the visual spectrum, including laser beams. The Glass Shield Cloaking System is composed of a grid of fine induction wires connected to a deep-tissue control implant (typically located in the back or ribcage), which in turn, is linked to the brain. The matrix can be layered directly beneath the surface of the epidermis or over the plating of cybernetic limbs; when activate, it generates a tuned, fixed-focus electromagnetic field that temporarily adjusts the frequency of EM radiation around the user. The net effect is a "cloak of invisibility" which appear near-perfect. After a quick orange flash, the user is invisible.
Cybernetic Leg Prosthesis: Replaces a person's organic limbs with enhanced-function mechanical substitutes. On a basic level, these grant the user the ability to reach greater heights while jumping. Additional functionalities, including jump range, greater sprint speed, and the ability to move without audible detection, become possible as familiarity with the augmentation increases. The Hermes 2027 Cybernetic Leg Prosthesis is an augmented artificial limb built on a framework of advanced polymers and lightweight metals. In place of an organic musculature, these augmentations utilize "myomers"-bunches of electro-stimulated plastic cables that mimic the actions of muscle tissues, but to a greatly strengthened degree. In combination with tiny motors and shock-absorbing liquid polymer buffers, these cyberlimbs are capable of far exceeding human physical attributes.
Learning to maximize the Cybernetic Leg's lighter phased carbide bone frame with its myomer reaction initiators allows people equipped with the prothesis to reach a maximum sprinting speed of 7.5 meters (24 feet) per second.
Once comfortable with using the leg's higher-density muscle bunches in tandem with the shock-absorbing gel matrix found in its knee joints and hip mounts, users can leap even higher than before - up to 3 meters (9 feet) into the air.
Cybernetic Leg users can become virtually silent while running once they learn to leverage tiny motors and shock-absorption liquid polymer buffers found inside the prosthesis. Even sprinting at full speed will produce no more noises than a gentle breeze once people equipped with the leg prothesis have mastered the use of its lighter phased carbide bone frames and myomer reaction initiators. The same higher-density myomer muscle bunches and shock-absorbing gel matrix in the knee joints and hip mounts which enable Cybernetic Leg users to jump higher than ever can also permit them to spring up and touch ground again without anyone hearing it occur.
Eye-Know Retinal Prosthesis: is the basic "chassis" for all optical augmentations and must be implanted in both eyes before further, more specialized devices can be purchased. The HUD projected by the prosthesis provides data on the user's medical condition, available equipment, wireless access to personal data storage and direct audio/visual telecommunications. An optical membrane implant and data-frame for vision augmentations, this device is a microthin base coating layered onto the inside of the human eye, with a synthetic neural tissue spike connected to the optic nerve; it is capable of projecting digital information directly on the retina.
