This piece of bioware is comprised of enhanced neural clusters placed into the motor control centers of the brain enhances the ability to use either hand at a task. Game Notes: Having the Synchronizer gives you a +2 bonus to the Ambidexterity skill. If you don't have the skill, you gain it at 2. Enhanced Articulation and Reflex Recorders cannot increase the Ambidexterity skill. Elastic Joints (Custom) Info Rating BI Avail Cost SI Legal Type Elastic Joints (C) - 0.60 6/96h 40,000 1.50 Legal Basic Desc This treatment replaces the articular capsule of all major joints with an elastic biosynthetic material that is substantially more robust. At the same time, the socket hold and nerve density are slightly reduced. The net effect improves the ease with which a joint can be dislocated and replaced into its socket, resulting in amazing flexibility and feats of contortion. Game Notes: The recipient receives a -2 TN modifier to all Escape Artist tests and to all attempts to escape grappling. She can also pass through openings that would normally be too small for a person of her size, or remain comfortable in spaces that are too small. This modification is not compatible with Enhanced Articulation. Enhanced Pheromone Receptors (Custom) Info Rating BI Avail Cost SI Legal Type Enhanced Pheromone Receptors (C) 1 0.20 8/48h 5,000 1.50 Legal Basic " 2 0.40 " 10,000 " " " " 3 0.60 " 15,000 " " " Desc While cyberware can provide implanted gas analyzers of high sensitivity to improve scent abilities, this biomod combines a boost to the neural pathways between nose and brain with a higher concentration of scent receptors, providing a more intuitive, high contrast sense of smell. This enhances a metahuman's innate ability to discern and react to individuals by scent, as well as detecting basic emotional cues (fear, anger, lust) from smells. The recipient can learn to identify individual people and animals by smell and can detect basic emotional states. Add the enhanced pheromone receptors rating to any Perception Tests involving smells and people or animals. Also add half the rating (round up) to any test involving social interaction; this bonus only applies if the recipient can smell the person or people he is interacting with. Strong odors (such as perfume) may diminish this ability, or even confuse it if more 1s than successes are rolled. Additionally, recipients may experience extreme discomfort in crowds due to the overwhelming amount of odors. They suffer a target number penalty equal to half the receptors rating (round up) to all tests due to the strong distraction. A respirator reduces these penalties by its rating. Game Notes: Tailored Pheromones provide twice their normal bonus against the recipient, and if the recipient also has an Adrenal Pump, the pump may be set off by other peoples smell of fear, anger, and lust - roll a Willpower (6) Test, +1 for every two levels of the receptors rating (round up). There are 3 levels available. Medial Cortex Bridge AKA MCT Bridge (Custom) Info Rating BI Avail Cost SI Legal Type Medial Cortex Bridge (C) 1 0.40 8/14d 50,000 2.00 Legal Cultured " 2 0.80 " 110,000 " " " Desc This network of cultured neurons bridges the medial prefrontal cortex and the hypothalamus to give these parts of the brain more control over the amygdala. Additionally, modified adrenal medullae alter the hormones produced during panic situations. The character is less prone to panic attacks, stress, or other mental manipulations. +1 Willpower per level. +1 dice on all Willpower-based resistance tests with a Rating 2 Bridge. Reception Enhancers (Custom) Info Rating BI Avail Cost SI Legal Type Reception Enhancers (C) 1 0.25 10/14d 25,000 2.00 Legal Cultured " 2 0.50 " 50,000 " " " " 3 0.75 " 75,000 " " " Desc Metahuman brains are only capable of handling a limited amount of sensory data at any given time. The reception enhancer modifies the parts of the brain that pick up and process sensory information by grafting specialized neural tissue and reinforcing neuron connections to those parts of the brain. This enables the user to glean as much as possible from incoming sensory data. Game Notes: The reception enhancer provides bonus dice equal to its rating on all Perception Tests. There are three levels to this bioware. Tactile Sensitivity (Custom) Info Rating BI Avail Cost SI Legal Type Tactile Sensitivity (C) - 0.30 10/14d 50,000 2.00 Legal Cultured Desc The user's sense of touch is greatly enhanced by tripling the sensory nerve endings in the fingers. Such increased sensitivity is in high demand in fields like microtronics and surgery. The treatment allows the character to detect otherwise imperceptible markings, prints, and tracks on most surfaces. Game Notes: Add a -2 TN modifier to all touch-based Perception Tests. In addition, a -1 situational TN modifier can be added (at the GM's discretion) for Biotech, Electronics, Electronics B/R, and certain seduction-based Knowledge Skill Tests. Troll's Eyes (Custom) Info Rating BI Avail Cost SI Legal Type Troll's Eyes (C) - 0.20 6/96h 15,000 1.00 Legal Basic Desc Like the Cat's Eyes augmentation, these enhancements replace the recipient's eyes with vatgrown eyeballs that extend the spectrum of wavelengths he can perceive. A portion of the color-sensitive rods are altered so that they are sensitive to infrared light. This bioware provides natural thermographic vision. The recipient, however, loses all metatype vision benefits. Incompatibility Due to the difficulty of the treatment, it is not possible to get "combo" eyes that combine several of the bio-vision enhancements. This implant is incompatible with cybereyes or Cat's Eyes.
