Cybernetics

THIS PAGE IS Alpha Three Ready!

Cybernetics is a method that mixes machine technology with organic beings to artificially enhance or otherwise improve the life of the organic. A cyborg will be a person who has had one or more surgeries to implant technology directly into their bodies.

To learn about the evolution and lore of Cybernetics and their Tech levels, you can read the lore page Evolutions of Cybernetics. To jump straight to a list of Cybernetic Implants, go to: Cyborg Enhancements, Cyborg Utilities, or Artificial Replacements.

If the Character simply wants to install or embed an item from General Equipment, then they can take the Cybertaker feat. This allows for the Surgery and installation of a single Utility Implant.

Summary

Cybernetics can be put under three main categories. Replacement Implants, Utility Implants and Enhancing Implants. Replacement Implants are not considered a 'special' difficulty.

A Character must take the Cyborg Novice feat, which requires adding the Cybernetic Prejudice flaw. A Surgery is performed to add the Framework which is the foundation for all Cyborg Implants. After the Surgery, the new Cyborg must take a Detractor.

A Framework provides Power and Slots for Implants. Implants cost money, require Surgery to install, and consume Slots and Power. A Cyborg can gain more Slots and Power over time by improving their Framework. They do this by gaining a new Feat, such as Cyborg Enthusiast, which enables them to get a surgery that upgrades the Framework. This also requires enhancing or adding a Detractor.

The other most common way to enhance a Cyborg is through masterworking Implants; however, excessive enhancement in this fashion can lead to additional Detractors. A Cyborg by default is also weak to Electric attacks and can only remove this weakness through improving their Framework/Implants.

Being a Cyborg means managing Detractors and Drawbacks, such as electrical weakness, while gaining enhancements to the Character in unique ways, which can be improved over time by spending Feats, Money, and time for the Character to get more Surgeries.

Cybernetic Types

The three kinds of cybernetic attachments are: Replacements, Utility, and Enhancements.

Replacements: Replacements are prosthetic or artificial units intended to replace lost limbs and damaged organs. These do not provide benefits other than duplicating the essential functions of their biological counterparts, and they present little strain on the beneficiary’s overall well-being. In appearance, a cybernetic replacement can be recognizably artificial or virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. These differences depend on Tech Level.

Rules: From a combat and role-playing perspective, there is no difference in a medical replacement implant if it is Tech2 or higher. Tech 1, there would be a noticeable difference. If the Player wishes to role-play it as a disability they wish to overcome, they can discuss this with the GM and treat it as a Quirk with a Detractor. Sensors or scanners may be able to detect the difference, but beyond being aware that there is something non-organic in the Character's body that otherwise functions identically to the biological replacement, the GM can ignore these implants. The purpose of this is mostly for Role-Playing. The idea is that if a Character loses a leg, an eye, etc., the group may have to go to a hospital for surgery, and the Character is out of action for a time. It is a way to deal with massive damage or near-death experiences. There is no need to take Cybernetic Prejudice or the Cybertaker feat.

Utility: Utility Implants can range from a wireless comms device, a tracker, or a scanning device. All of these are attached to the body in a way that would require surgery to remove, or else they are not considered an implant. They must also be connected to the person in a way that doesn't require a physical interface. IE: A neural interface, or some connection to the nervous system. The most common example of this is a wireless communications and tracking implant installed in soldiers or workers to enable easy communication and tracking.

Rules: These implants relate to a device in General Equipment or of the same theme. Using the implant would then be the same as using the associated item from a 'what to roll' perspective. This would not provide a 'sixth sense to the Character. IE, If the implant is a Medical Scanner, the use of it would be the same as using a Medical Scanner device in the Character's hand. The only difference is that the device is embedded and thus frees the Character's hands. The data returned from the scan would have to be provided through another interface, as it wouldn't go directly to the mind. The mind could perhaps control the device, but the device cannot upload data directly into the mind. If that was the case it would count instead as an Enhancement and a 'sixth sense' device. The main purpose here is to allow an avenue for General Purpose items to be used as implants. Character needs to take the Cybernetic Prejudice flaw unless specified otherwise. A Utility takes up a Slot unless it is provided by the Cybertaker feat.

Enhancements: Enhancements bestow new abilities or improve the recipient in some fashion. Enhancements include skeletal reinforcement and subcutaneous weapon mounts. Some enhancements have visible external components, while others are hidden beneath the skin. Enhancements put more of a drain on the body’s resources, and recipients frequently suffer debilitating physical or mental side effects.

Rules: These implants are the most advanced and take up both Slots and Power. There are some exceptions to this rule, which will be discussed further below. The Character that has Enchancing Cybernetics must take the Cybernetic Prejudice flaw as well as Cyborg Enthusiast to become a level 1 cyborg.

Cybernetic Levels

There are different levels of cybernetic use. The higher the level of use the more the biological body is adjusted artificially.

Level 0: This is mostly for the Replacements type. This has no requirements. This doesn't even require the use of a Cybernetic Framework (more on that below). There is also no serious prejudice regarding the use of cybernetics for medical needs. While some may look down on those who do it, especially if it isn't necessary, this isn't the same disdain that many species and cultures have for Cyberborgs and the like. A Character can at Level 0 take a single 'Utility' type implant; however, this comes with some conditions. Only one Utility implant can be installed, and the Character must take the Cybertaker feat to do so.

Level 1: This is the First Level of Enhancement-type implants. This Level is unlocked with the Cyborg Novice Feat, which also requires the Cybernetic Prejudice flaw as a Prerequisite. You must take the feat and then get surgery to install the Cybernetic Framework before starting your new life as a Cyborg. At least one implant must have some small visible spot on a prominent part of the Character's body. A Disguise check is required to hide the fact that the Character is artificially enhanced. This follows the Disguise Checks Innate Drawback rules.

Once a Character has taken the Cyborg Novice Feat the Character must acquire a Framework and a surgeon willing to perform the work. This costs money and time, and only then is a Character truly a Cyborg.

Requirements: The Cyborg Novice feat which also requires the Cybernetic Prejudice flaw. This then also requires taking a Detractor from the list.

Level 2: This has all the same requirements as Level 1, as well as the Cyborg Enthusiast feat. The size and number of implants visible protruding from the body have increased by at least 1. The Character can now go get the surgery done to upgrade to a level 2 Framework. Until this is done, the Character is *not* actually a Level 2 Cyborg.

Requirements: The Cyborg Enthusiast feat and either a new Detractor from the list or enhancing an existing detractor.

Level 3: Just as level 2 with the Cyborg Competent Feat this time. The size and number of implants visible protruding from the body have increased by at least 1. Just as with the previous level the Character must get the surgery done to upgrade to a level 3 Framework before they can take advantage of being a Level 3 Cyborg.

Requirements: The Cyborg Competent feat and either a new Detractor from the list or enhancing an existing detractor.

Level 4: Just as with levels 2 and 3, except with the Cyborg Expert Feat this time. The size and number of implants visible protruding from the body have increased by at least 1. Just as with the previous level the Character must get the surgery done to upgrade to a level 4 Framework before they can take advantage of being a Level 4 Cyborg.

Requirements: The Cyborg Expert feat and either a new Detractor from the list or enhancing an existing detractor.

Level 5: Just as with the previous levels, this is achieved with a Feat; this time, the Cyborg Master Feat. The size and number of implants visible protruding from the body have increased by at least 1. This is the highest level obtainable as a Cyborg. Any higher, the being would be more of a robot with minor biological components than a biological being with augmented artificial features. This level is extremely difficult to achieve. Again, surgery is done to upgrade to a level 5 Framework before they can take advantage of being a Level 5 Cyborg.

Requirements: The Cyborg Master feat and either a new Detractor from the list or enhancing an existing detractor.

How to get/craft/repair/install/remove Implants

Buying/Selling

Cybernetics are usually frowned upon if they are not used for medical purposes. In some societies, biological understanding yields advanced technology that removes the need for a mechanical solution to a missing limb or organs and many people prefer to simply regrow a lost appendage. So, depending on where the Character is, they may find even Medical or Utility Cybernetics rare, if not illegal. However, in most societies, Enhancement Cybernetics is illegal or rare. Medical and Utility Cybernetics have a Procure Difficulty of either 1 or 2 and start with Technology Level 1. While Enhancement Cybernetics has a Procure Difficulty of 2 or 3 and starts at Tech Level 2. A Species description will inform the GM where each of the major Species stand on Difficulties but if the adventuring group runs into a different culture it is up to the GM to decide. The default assumption is that it is always difficult to find a place that sells good quality Cybernetics and even harder to find a competent Cybernetic Surgen.

Selling your Cybernetic wears or even performing surgery for a client can be equally difficult, as it is often associated with the 'underground' or 'black market' of a society. Depending on where the Character's are they may even be committing a crime in providing these services.

More detailed Pricing and Procure Difficulty information is provided per Implant bases below.

Installation and Removal

Installing or removing a cybernetic attachment, regardless of the type, requires a successful Surgery check. If the Character doesn't have Cybernetic Surgery, then they take a disadvantage and cannot install Enhancement or Utility-type Cybernetics. A Character with the Cybernetic Surgery feat suffers no penalty on the check and can install all types of Cybernetics. A failed Surgery requires at least 1 week of recovery with temp Conn damage of xd4 per 5 points missed by the DC. The Conn damage cannot go below 1. Once full recovery is complete, the Surgeon can try again. The Character cannot perform Surgery on themselves.

Removing a cybernetic attachment without proper surgery causes lasting physical trauma to the patient’s body, dealing 1d4 points of permanent Constitution damage + 1d4 reduction in whatever attribute/ability/skill the implant is associated with. These can be removed or reduced with follow-up surgeries. A failed roll to remove an implant will force the Character to choose whether to continue removing it or leave it in a broken state. Continuing the removal will result in the aforementioned effects.

Finding a professional to do surgery for a nonmedical implant requires a Procure Difficulty of 1 if it is a Utility and a 3 if it is for Enhancements.

Construction and Repair

Cybernetic attachments are complex instruments with both electrical and mechanical components. Consequently, a character must have the Craft Cybernetics feat to build a cybernetic attachment. Standard crafting rules apply, it will require the use of both an Electrical and Mechanical crafting kit, it will require a 'bill of materials', and it will require time, usually 5 days.

Craft Cybernetics is also required for repairing. Repairing a damaged or nonfunctional cybernetic attachment requires 8 hours of work and a successful Repair check DC 15 + 1 per Tech level + 1 per Masterwork level The base is DC10 for Medical and Utility implants. A character needs both an electrical tool kit and a mechanical tool kit to facilitate repairs. Without one or the other, a character takes a disadvantage on the check; without both kits, it is impossible to try. A failure to repair means the Character must wait at least 8 hours before trying again. However, repairing and simply disabling the device and stopping it from doing self-harm are two different things. The device can simply be disabled and repaired later to avoid immediate adverse effects, if any.

Any cybernetic part that is 'hidden' or is considered inside of the body in any way also requires Surgery to access the Implant. The Character leading the surgery must also have Cyberentic Surgery. This will require a Surgery Kit and the Treat Injury skill. Failure to perform the Skill check for Surgery by more than 5 means that the Character cannot attempt to repair the implant. If it fails but by less than 5 the repair can still move forward but the patient becomes infected and has the condition of Sickened for 1d4 days.

Getting Damaged

By default only Implants that have the External category can be a target for damage. Implants follow the Item Damage rules. If a Battled Scared Implant fails, it fails for a certain amount of time as per the Multi-Turn Non-Functioning Items rules specify. By default, all Implants have a Resiliency of 3.

When an implant is completely damaged, it can no longer function, and the Character rolls a Constitution save as if they took Massive Damage. If they fail the GM will roll percentile dice and consult Table: Side Effects to determine what happens. This effect lasts until surgery can be done. Consult Installation and Removal.

All Implants can be improved using Masterwork levels to gain a higher Resiliency or to remove their Weakness of Electric Damage type. Learn more about different Masterwork improvements for Implants below.

Cybernetic Framework

Implants need a way to interact with the Biological body as well as get power and be controlled. This requires tight integration with the biological lifeform they are attached to and the unique properties of that body. Over time the popular solution of building a sort of foundation to work off was adopted by all cyberneticist. This is called a Framework. It acts as an interface between the mechanical to the biological and helps the different implants work with each other as well as the different body types found within the cosmos.

The Power Pack

The Power Pack is the Framework's power source. It is also one of the parts that have changed the most between civilizations and Technologies. The big difference between Replacement, Regenerative, and Permanent power solutions is mostly how they are recharged and for role-playing purposes. The table below explains further. Note that this is largely for role-playing purposes and doesn't affect the types or amount of Implants that can be installed.

Replacement (Tech 2):	Regenerative (Tech 3):	Permanent (Tech 4):
A replacement design is a high-capacity battery that has to be replaced/re-charged every so many hours/days. At tech 2 the battery would need to be replaced every 24 hours. Tech 3 every 72 hours and Tech 4 every week. Also by default the battery is susceptible to electromagnetic attacks like a power drain.	A regenerative example would be the Battery/Nuclear hybrid solution. The small Nuclear module doesn't provide enough power for full usage and thus a battery picks up the slack. When the body is sleeping the Nuclear pack recharges the battery. This should be calibrated to follow the select species' natural sleep cycle. A bio-reactor that uses the species' natural eating habits to convert calories into electricity is another example. The Character would have to eat more but that is all.	A permanent power solution would be an advanced Tech 4 solution that involves things like an Anti-matter battery that could be far longer than the expected life type of the target person or some sub-space vacuum energy source that runs into infinity.

If a Power Pack runs out of power or is otherwise disabled the cybernetic implants go into an emergency power mode. Biological functions do not stop but any advantages provided by having these implants stop until power is restored. The main difference in power solutions is in role-playing and the fact that power will need to be replaced. For example, if a Character has a Regenerative Power Pack and they do not rest after 24 hours then they lose their Cybernetic abilities until they perform a long rest.

Power and Slots

A Cybernetic Framework provides Power and Slots to install Implants. Each level in Cybernetics increases the Power and Slots. Masterworked levels and Tech Levels enhance Frameworks with additional Power/Slots, as shown in the graph below.

No matter the Cybernetic Level, Masterworked Level, or Tech Level, the maximum amount of achievable points is 10, and the maximum number of Slots is 6. This is a hard-set limit.

Table: Default Power and Slots for Level 1 Cyborg by Tech/Masterworked Level
Masterworked Levels => v=Tech Levels=v	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Level 4	Level 5
Tech Level 2	3 Power / 2 Slots	4 Power / 2 Slots	5 Power / 3 Slots	6 Power / 3 Slots	7 Power / 4 Slots
Tech Level 3	4 Power / 3 Slots	5 Power / 3 Slots	6 Power / 4 Slots	7 Power / 4 Slots	8 Power / 5 Slots
Tech Level 4	5 Power / 4 Slots	6 Power / 4 Slots	7 Power / 5 Slots	8 Power / 5 Slots	9 Power / 6 Slots
*Max Power/Slots no matter the Cybernetic/Masterworked/Tech Level is: 10/6

Each Implant requires a surgery to install or remove and will cost some amount of Power and Slots. Once an Implant has been used it has been modified specifically for the target species and cannot be used in other species. So a Character should plan carefully what goes in their body as this can be expensive and dangerous. Once removed it cannot be sold.

Both the Cybertaker and the Cyber Tweaks feat's can grant the Character more Power or Slots but again not above the hard limit.

Masterworking the Framework

Masterworking can provide masterwork points which can be spent on 3 different upgrades at different costs. All items/weapons/armor can only have up to 5 masterwork levels, and Cyborg equipment is no different. Each Masteworking level gained increases the cost of the Framework by x3.

Electrical Hardening: Costs 1 Masterwork point. Makes the Framework and its recipient immune to Electrical-type attacks. However, 1/2 (round up) of all Implants that require Power slots will also need this improvement. Normally, if the Framework is not hardened against electrical attacks, then 100% of all Implants that require Power on the Cyborg will need to be upgraded in order to remove this Weakness. This can be improved again to reduce the number down to 1/4th (round up) and again to ignore the Electrical Weakness regardless of Implants.

Power Improvement: Costs 2 Masterwork points. Provides additional Power. Cannot go above the specified limit.

Slot Improvement: Costs 2 Masterwork points. Provides an additional Slot. Cannot go above the specified limit.

Implant Tech/Masterwork Traits

Implant Traits

Tech 2: The Craft can imbue Tech 2 cybernetic enhancements with 1 of the following traits

Stealth: This is beyond stealth medical or utility implants. These are meant to trick even security scanners. Only a critical eye can try to spot the implant. Perception Check DC15+ Crafting Bonus + Surgery Bonus. The bonuses are +1 for every 3 points the Craft or Surgery exceeds the DC.
Electric Hardening: This removes the Weakness of Electric attacks.
Improved Resiliency: This adds +1 to the Resiliency rating of the Implant.
Energy Efficiency: Spending 2 Masterwork points on the Implant reduces the Power requirement by 1 minimum 1. This can only be done once

Tech 3: The Crafter can imbue Tech 3 cybernetic enhancements with 1 of the following traits.

Improved Stealth: Only a critical eye can try to spot the implant. DC20+ Crafting Bonus + Surgery Bonus. The bonuses here are +1 for every 3 the Craft or Surgery exceeds the DC.
Advanced Energy Efficiency: Spending 1 Masterwork point on the Implant reduces the Power requirement by 1 minimum 1. This can only be done once and replaces Tech 2 Energy Efficiency.
Nano-Scale Spatial Engineering: Spending 3 Masterwork points can reduce the Slot requirement for the device by 1 minimum 1. This can only be done once.

Tech 4: The Crafter can imbue Tech 4 cybernetic enhancements with 1 of the following traits or 2 of the Tech 3 traits.

Expert Stealth: Only a critical eye can try to spot the implant. DC25+ Crafting Bonus + Surgery Bonus. The bonuses here are +2 for every 3 the Craft or Surgery exceeds the DC.
Atomic Spatial Engineering: Spending 2 Masterwork points can reduce the Slot requirement for the device by 1 minimum 1. This can only be done once and replaces Nano-Scale Spatial Engineering.

Higher Technology provides better benefits. However, the costs are much greater. Tech 3 version of Tech 2 implants are instantly 3 times more expensive and Tech 4 is 3 times more expensive than Tech 3. They are also harder to find. IE: +1 to Procure difficulty.

Masterworking Implants

Implants can be improved upon if they are crafted with skill. Like all items, the highest Masterwork level is 5. Each level provides a point that can be spent. These can improve the Implants Traits as defined above. Or they can enhance the Implant in specific ways. This is explained in the description of the Enhancement Implants. When the description uses a phrase like 'spending a Masterwork point to improve the Benefits of this implant' it is not referring to Traits but the specific bonus provided by that Implant.

Masteworking Implants come at an increased cost of x2 per level and a +1 per level to the difficulty of the Surgery to install it. For every 4 points spent on improving the Implants Benefits (not traits) the Cyborg has to also take or enhance a Detractor.

The Drawbacks

Cybernetic attachments provide countless benefits to their recipients. The possibilities of cybernetic technology may seem endless but there are also some drawbacks that cannot be ignored. Although the benefits make cybernetics very alluring, the drawbacks are equally discouraging. There are some default drawbacks other then the standard Detractors that will be explained below.

By default Implants do not require a Detractor or Flaw however there are some exceptions. Improving the level of a Framework and thus allowing more Implants requires either a new Detractor from the list or enhancing an existing one. However, spending 4 or more points on enhancing the bonus an Implant provides can also require enhancing or adding Detractors.

Innate Drawbacks

Disguise Checks

Starting at Level 1 Cyborg, the Character should have visible signs of being a Cyborg unless stealthed or otherwise specified. A Disguise check is necessary to hide the true nature of the Character. This is an opposed check and is used only to determine whether the Character is a Cyborg. At Level 2 and all preceding levels, add Disadvantage to this Disguise check. The check can be used to disguise the person in other ways as well. If so, the result with the Disadvantage is the DC for picking out if the Character is a Cyborg, while the check without the Disadvantage is for identifying the Character and/or discovering other hidden things. At Level 5, this would mean the Character would have 4 Disadvantages for Disguise and thus would make it impossible. Any action with more than 3 disadvantages is considered not doable. For each implant that has Stealth, reduce the total number of visible signs of being a Cyborg (at least 1 per Level) and remove a Disadvantage.

Susceptibility to Attack

External cybernetic attachments are subject to attacks as if they are not stealthed. Although an attacker can roll a Perception check against the stealthed Implant, and if they succeed, they can then attack that point. The Attacker can attempt the 'Attack an Object' action (view the Combat page for more details) to deal damage directly too the Cybernetic implant. Read Above for information on how damage is handled.

Electrical Weakness

The Cyborg, by default, gains the Weakness of Electrical damage. If the Framework is upgraded with a Masterwork point to improve Electrical Hardening as well as 1/2 (round up) of Implants that require Power, then this Weakness is removed. Or 100% of all Implants that require Power are hardened.

Massive Damage Effects

Massive damage wreaks havoc with cybernetic attachments. Massive damage is when a Character receives more than 50% of their total HP worth of damage from one person. Whenever a creature with cybernetic attachments fails a Constitution save against massive damage, the GM will roll percentile dice and consult Table: Side Effects to determine what happens. This effect lasts until the end of the encounter.

Table: Side Effects
d%	Roll Side Effect
01–08	Blurred Vision: Character suffers a 20% miss chance on all attacks.
09–17	Constant Trembling: Character takes a –2 penalty on Dexterity-based skill checks.
18–25	Cybernetic Rejection: Character suffers 1d4 points of Constitution damage per day.
26–34	Dizziness: Character takes a –1 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, ability checks, and skill checks.
35–42	Impaired Hearing: Static distortion imposes a –2 penalty on all Listen checks.
43–50	Impaired Vision: Distorted images impose a –2 penalty on Spot checks.
51–59	Insomnia: Character can only sleep for minutes at a time and gains insufficient rest to heal naturally.
60–67	Muscle Cramps: Character moves at half speed.
68–76	Muscle Fatigue: Character takes a –2 penalty on Strength-based skill checks.
77–84	Power Surge: Character is shaken for 1 round if wounded; a successful Fortitude save (DC 12) negates.
85–93	Psychosis: Character suffers 1d4 points of Charisma damage per day, lapsing into a coma if the score drops to 0.
94–100	Sensory Overload: Character is stunned for 1 round if wounded; a successful Fortitude save (DC 15) negates.

Replacements

The most basic replacement for things like limbs and organs don’t bestow any special benefits, but they suffer some basic drawbacks. These drawbacks are not the ones listed above. Those are for Utilities and Enhancements. Replacements are more for Role-playing as well as having a lower tech adventure where a character suffers a grave wound. Some replacements of higher Tech Levels are built to counter certain drawbacks, as noted. They don’t add measurably to the recipient’s weight. Also by default all Replacements are not weak to Electrical attacks.

There are two different categories of Replacements. Internal and External. Internal are things like Organs while External are Prosthetic replacements.

To learn more about the different options, how Tech Levels effect these and what Masterwork levels can do for Replacements visit the Organ Replacement page.

Utility

All Utilities are based on existing items found in the General Equipment page. These cannot include Weapons or Armor. Any item that requires Electrical and/or Mechanical parts to construct and is powered, such as a sensor, communications device, by default requires a Power slot, it it doesn't require a Power Slot then it also doesn't have the Weakness to Electrical attacks. Otherwise they do not require power. By default any device converted into an Implant must be crafted as Masterworked Level 1. At Masterworked Level 2 or higher the item can be crafted with a personal power device removing the requirement for a Power slot unless specified otherwise. This micro power supply acts like the Framework's Power Pack noted above.

All other masterwork levels are spent improving the implant but the first level must be spent only on making the item usable as an implant. Another level can be spent on providing a micro power supply but again this wont count as improving the item only adding a feature too it. So if the first 2 masterwork levels are for the implant and the micro power supply then at masterwork level 3 the item can be improved as if it was a normal Masterwork level 1 item.

To learn more about Utility Implants visit the Utility Implants page.

Enhancements

Cybernetic enhancements are available starting at Tech Level 2. Unlike standard replacements, they bestow new abilities upon their recipients. Unless otherwise noted, enhancements don’t add measurably to a recipient’s weight.

Each enhancement description includes the following information:

Type: Implants can be External or Internal or a mix of both. This effects the Disguise skill. An Internal implant can only be detected through some type of scanner or x-ray vision. While External are visible and can affect Disguise rolls.

Restriction: (In the column) An additional category uses purely for Role-Playing. It can add extra difficulty and work for the Character attempting to purchase and install the implant.

Benefit: What the cybernetic enhancement allows its recipient to do.

Tech/Masterworked: Special rules for what happens or what can be gained when an Implant is made at a Higher Tech level or built by a master craftsmen.

Detractor: Special rules for dealing with Detractors.

Cybernetic Enhancement Implants
Name	Type	Cost/Procure Diff	Restriction
--- Tech Level 2 ----
Anti-Nauseated Implant	Internal / Slot 0 / Power 1	$1,500/0	None
Description: Helps reduce the chances of being Nauseated. Benefit: The user gains Advantage on saving throws to avoid Nauseated condition. If there was no saving throw granted before then the cyborg now gets to attempt a saving throw where others would not. This doesn't protect against effects that jump straight to the Sickened condition.
Anti-Shock Implant	Internal / Slot 0 / Power 1	$1,500/0	None
Description: This tiny implant, embedded near the recipient’s brain stem, protects the user mental functions from shock caused by different forms of damage. Benefit: The user gains Advantage on saving throws to avoid Shaken conditions which includes Dazed/Stunned/Paralyzed. If there was no saving throw granted before then the cyborg now gets to attempt a saving throw where others would not.
Artificial Nervous System	Internal / Slot 1 / Power 1	$20,000/1	None
Description: The nervous system or other such internal signal transmission solution that transmits signals to and from the brain and different senses of the body are replaced with artificial fiber-optic pathways. Thus allowing signals to pass a near-light speed. Benefit: Dexterity Theme Score Bonus of +1. Max achievable score is 24, max bonus can provide is a +3. Tech/Masterworked: Each Tech Level increases the max potential score and bonus by +2 as well as the starting bonus by +1. Each Masterwork level can provide an additional +1 as long as it doesn't surpass the limits.
Dermal Reactive Camouflage	External / Slot 1 / Power 2	$15,000/1	Licensed Profession
Description: The skin has nano projectors interlaced and visible only as things like freckles, spots or pimples. This can cover the body in any pre-programmed camouflage pattern. Visible only where skin is exposed. Made popular by hunters. Benefit: The recipient gains +2 to Stealth. Tech/Masterworked: Each Tech Level after Tech 2 increases the Competency level. If maxed this just adds another +1. Masterwork'ed levels add an additional +1. Max however is 2+Tech Level.
External Weapon Mount	External / Slot 1 / Power 2	$2,500/3	Military Access
Description: The recipient’s prosthetic arm ends in a weapon instead of a hand. Benefit: The recipient has a melee or ranged weapon attached to a prosthetic arm. Attempts to disarm the recipient of the attached weapon automatically fail, though the weapon can still be attacked (like any other weapon) in an attempt to destroy it. A two handed weapon can be attached to a single arm this way thus negating both Two Handed and Clunky Default Attributes but also removing Throw-able.
Injetor Unit	Internal / Slot 1 / Power 1	$3,500/1	Licensed Profession
Description: This unit, attached the recipient’s forearm or thigh, incorporates three medical hypo-syringes. Upon command, the unit can inject any or all of the medicinal substances into the recipient’s bloodstream. Benefit: The injector unit has three built-in hypos, and each hypo holds a single dose of one of the following medicinal chemicals: antitox (TL 1), boost (TL 2), neutrad (TL 2), sporekill (TL 2), or biocort (TL 3). As a Free Action during his turn, the recipient can contract his muscles to inject himself with any or all of these hypos, gaining the benefits immediately. A drained hypo can be removed and replaced as a full-round action.
Physical Auto-Training Augmentation	Internal / Slot 0 / Power 1	$10,000/2	None
Description: This small brain implant enables its recipient to perform a specific skill chosen from a list more adroitly. Requirement: The skill has to be one of the following: Acrobatics, Athletics, Bluff, Diplomacy, Disable Device, Pilot, Sleight of Hand, Stealth, Treat Injury Benefit: The recipient gains a +2 competence bonus on checks made with one class skill of choice. This also counts for taking 10 or 20. Different skills require different implants, and a skill implant cannot be modified to grant a bonus to another skill. A recipient may have multiple skill implants, but each is considered a separate cybernetic attachment. And no implant of the same skill type. Tech/Masterworked: Each Tech level increased the base by +2. Masterwork adds +1 or the ability to reduce the time for Taking 10 or 20 by reducing it by 2 minutes per level.
Stabilizer	Internal / Slot 1 / Power 1	$12,000/1	None
Description: A stabilizer releases chemical coagulants into a dying recipient’s bloodstream to prevent excess blood loss, effectively stabilizing him. A stabilizer is usually installed near the recipient’s heart. Benefit: If reduced to negative hit points, the recipient automatically stabilizes. They stay alive with just 1 hit point. This requires refilling with Pharmaceuticals equal to 1% of 1 Unit of Advanced Pharmaceuticals. This by default only has one charge. Tech/Masterworked: Tech level can increase the starting health by half of 1HD per Tech level above 2. Masterworked levels can add more charges.
Subcutaneous Body Armor	Internal / Slot 1 / Power 0	Light: $5,000/3, Medium: $10,000/3, Heavy: $15,000/3	Military Access
Description: Subcutaneous body armor consists of small plates of flexible armor implanted under the recipient’s skin. Benefit: The character gains natural Damage Reduction of -1. Tech/Masterworked: Each Tech gains another -1 to Damage Reduction.
