Nanoware

Bioware Regenerator Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Fixed Transient 10% of implant cost 10/14 d 2 Legal Desc The regenerator nanites are triggered when the bioware implant they are attached to accumulates Moderate Stress or higher. They automatically reduce the implant's Stress by 1 D6/2 points per day. Regenerator nanites cannot heal permanent bioware Stress or repair failed bioware. Replenishing regenerator nanites requires implant surgery. Reduced Effect: The bioware regenerators only remove 1 Stress per day. Carcerand-Plus Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Free Floating 30,000 12/14 d 2 Legal Transient 7,000 10/7 d 2 Legal Desc Carcerand-plus nanites contain the equivalent of one dose of a compound. Once injected, they circulate through the body until the trigger condition is met or they are purged. The trigger condition must be specified before the nanites are installed. Carcerand-plus nanites are available as free-floating or transient systems. Cutters (per dose) Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Transient 20,000 20/30 d 5 2-Y Desc Cutters will continue to cause damage (9M Physical) to the character for 1 D6 + 3 consecutive Combat Turns. After that point, the nanites have burnt themselves out. Stage this damage per the Additional Dosage rules. Cyberware Repair Unit Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Fixed Transient 10% of implant cost 8/14 d 1.5 Legal Desc The repair nanites are triggered whenever the cyberware implant they are attached to accumulates Moderate Stress or higher. The nanites automatically reduce the implant's Stress by 1 D6/2 points per day that they are active. Repair nanites cannot heal permanent Stress, nor can they repair failed cyberware. Replenishing repair nanites requires implant surgery. Reduced Effect: The repair nanites reduce 1 Stress per day. Fingerprint Mappers Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Transient Rating x 5,000 12/30 d 2 5P-Y Desc This nanoware system has a rating that is used in an Opposed Test with the print scanner. The re-mapping of the skin takes (Rating) hours, during which the character's hands tingle and itch. This process also renders the finger tips very tender for the duration of the remapping procedure, imposing a +2 target number modifier to all tactile-based Perception Tests. Once re-mapped, the character's natural prints will grow back and replace the fake print after 30 days. This treatment affects one hand only. Reduced Effect: If the re-mapping of the fingerprint is still in progress, the fingerprint's rating is reduced by half (round down). Gemini (per Dose) Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Transient 20,500 14/48 h 3 2-Y Desc A character dosed with Gemini is susceptible to the preprogrammed emotional state when the nanites are triggered. The character must play out the emotion for the duration of the nanites' existence. If the character wishes to display another emotion, he must take a Complex Action and succeed in a Charisma (8) Test. If successful, he can emote what he wishes for the next Combat Turn. After that, the Gemini-controlled emotional state returns. While under the influence, characters receive a + 1 bonus to Willpower. Reduced Effect: The character needs to make a Charisma (6) Test to successfully display another emotion. Gremlins Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Transient 20,000 14/14 d 3 2-Y Desc Once injected, gremlins rapidly scour the body, looking for cyberware implants and doing their best to damage them. Each full day that the gremlins are active, roll 1 D6. The result is the number of cyberware wound effects (see p. 126) that the character suffers. Reduced Effect: The gremlins inflict 1 D6 + 2 wound effects each day. Nanite Hunters Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Transient 20,000 16/21 d 3 4-Y Desc Nanite hunters must be programmed to target a specific nanoware system (nano-symbiotes, for example). Once injected, nanite hunters reduce the targeted nanite system by 1 D6 percent every hour. Reduced Effect: The hunters reduce the nanoware system by 1 D6 + 2 percent every hour. Nanosymbiotes Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Free-Floating 70,000 12/7 d 2 Legal Desc Nanosymbiotes reduce the base time for healing by one Damage Level. For example, a character healing a Moderate Physical wound would use a base time of 24 hours-the base time for Light-instead of 10 days. If using the optional Healing Physical Damage rules, calculate the base time as if the wound modifier were one level lower. For example, a character without bioware would heal one box of Moderate in a base time of 24 (24 x 1) hours instead of 48 (24 x 2) hours. Note that damage decreases the percentage of nanosymbiotes in the system by 5 percent per box, as normal. Nanosymbiotes are incompatible with symbiotes. Reduced Effect: Determine the revised base healing time as above, but then increase that period by 50 percent (x 1.5). Nanotattoos Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Free-Floating 5,000 8/14 d 3 Legal Desc The potential variations of nanotattoos are staggering, and it is up to the gamemaster to limit exactly what can and can't be accomplished artistically. Price may also vary, depending on the artists, uniqueness of the design, size and other factors. Reduced Effect: The tattoo's quality and rate of change are diminished. Nantidotes Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Free-Floating 500 x Toxin Cost 10/14 d 2 Legal Transient 200 x Toxin Cost 8/7 d 2 Legal Desc Nantidotes can be purchased as transient or free-floating systems. Each nantidote system is only effective against a particular toxin. At the gamemaster's discretion, closely related compounds can also be affected (Green Ring 3 and Green Ring 8, for example). If nantidotes are present in the system when the toxin is introduced, or injected before the toxin's Speed duration expires, the toxin has no effect. If nantidotes are injected after the toxin's Speed period, the nantidotes prevent further damage. They also reduce the target number on tests to heal the toxin's damage by 2. Reduced Effect: If present before the toxin's Speed duration expires, the toxin's Power is cut in half (round down), and its Damage Level is reduced by one—for example, from Serious to Moderate. If applied after the toxin has caused damage, any further damage is reduced as stated, and the character receives a -1 modifier on tests to heal the toxin's damage. Oxy-rush Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Transient 10,000 8/14 d 2 Legal Desc A character with oxy-rush nanites can hold his breath for hours-until the nanites wear out. These nanites also provide +2 bonus dice to Athletics Tests and provide the equivalent of 1 level of Pain Resistance. Oxy-rush is incompatible with oxygenated fluorocarbons; if both are applied, use only the strongest effect. Reduced Effect: The character can still hold his breath, but he receives only + 1 die for Athletics. Retinal Tailors Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Transient Rating x 6,000 12/30 d 2 5P-Y Desc This nanoware system has a rating between 1 and 10 that is used in an Opposed Test with the print scanner. The re-mapping of the retina takes (Rating) hours, during which the character's eyes itch. This change is permanent; if the character wants to retun to a previous retinal print or any other, retinal tailors must be applied again. These nanites are not compatible with cybereyes or retinal duplication cyberware. Reduced Effect: If the re-mapping of the retina is not complete, reduce the print's rating by half (round down). Taggants Nano Item Nanite Type Cost Avail SI Legality Etchers Transient 5,000 6/7 d 1.5 Legal Markers Free Floating 10,000 8/14 d 2 Legal Desc Taggants are nanite systems designed to mark the user in some way for security purposes. Presently, two types are used: etchers and markers. Etchers This transient system inlays a magnetic metallic pattern onto a section of bone. Usually used to permanently mark convicts or employees, the imprint left by etchers is detectable by magnetic anomaly detectors (MADs) and cyberware scanners. The latter can actually read the imprint, which usually contains information such as the convict's SIN or employee ID code. The target number for a MAD system or cyberware scanner to detect an etching is 3. Etchings are usually permanent. Specially programmed etcher nanites can remove them. as can surgery to open up the bone and scrape it. Markers This free-floating system is nothing more than a blood-borne information capsule. The marker nanites are usually encoded with identifying information. which can be analyzed and read by a nano scanner. Some security systems attempt to "tag" runners by injecting them with marker nanites so that they can be identified later. Markers are also used as a discreet message delivery system. sometimes via unknowing accomplices. Marker nanites can hold 5 Mp of data.
