🐾 Neon Newt™
“DAMN THING BURNED A HOLE RIGHT THROUGH MY SUIT!” — Ryder Lee, WNS News
The Neon Newt is Biotechnica’s most offensively exotic cyberpet — a brilliantly colored salamander engineered with biological weapons that would make a Militech R&D team jealous. It has no cyberware at all; every capability is grown into its genome. Its flamebreath functions like a miniature flamethrower, and its skin secretes a corrosive acid that eats through armor on contact.

⚙️ Abilities
Flamebreath
The Neon Newt’s Flamebreath acts as a Flamethrower (CP:R p.348). It uses the Heavy Weapons skill for attack rolls. Cooldown: Cannot be used if it was activated on the previous turn.
Acid Secretion
On a successful attack, the Neon Newt’s acid lowers the SP of all worn armor on the target by 1. This attack uses Brawling (not Melee Weapon) and deals no direct damage — the corrosion is the weapon.
