πŸ“ Description

There’s only a few of these in the world, and it cost at least two people their lives. Are you sure you want it?

This legendary experimental speedware was designed as part of Arasaka’s Cyberskeleton project. It pushes the human body beyond its limits β€” at a terrible cost.

Humanity Cost

Every activation costs 2d6 Humanity Loss. This is not optional.


βš™οΈ Mechanics

Activation (Free Action)

  • Does NOT require an Action to activate, even during combat.
  • Beginning of Combat: Immediately shoot to top of Initiative Queue.
  • During Combat: Move to top of Initiative Queue immediately.
  • On Your Turn: Gain an additional Move OR other Action.

Cyberpsychosis Risk

If activated while at negative Humanity, the user:

  • Takes damage equal to Humanity Loss (directly to HP, bypasses armor)
  • Enters Extreme Cyberpsychosis (GM takes control)

πŸ“œ Restrictions

  • Requires 2 Neuralware Option Slots
  • Borgware β€” Counts toward borgware limits
  • Only one piece of Speedware can be installed at a time
