Cybersnake

Basic Action

A telescopic tentacle that can extend up to one meter attack or manipulate objects on your mental command. The cybersnake is usually hidden in the mouth or abdomen, but can be fitted as an additional function of a Prosthetics limb.

As it is not actually your body that moves, you do not need to be combat trained to use a cybersnake. It attacks using your Ride skill and does Body +3 damage.

Netrider

This is a special net interface unit, that keeps track of and displays any net connections in the vicinity. You are present both in the net and in the physical world. You can see the interface any any electronic net-connected device in the vicinity. Your internal computer allows you to try and hack into these machines. You can remote-control vehicles and machines with auto pilots - which can include gun pods and armed vehicles. You are mostly aware of net-connected security devices, traps, checkpoints and other computer-controlled devices before they become a problem.

Any non-secure net connection in the vicinity is automatically displayed, while those with security are detected if you have the appropriate access, or if a Create roll overcomes their security. This makes you very powerful if you have a high level of authority, such as corporate police units have on their own turf.

You can try to seize command of any remote controlled system or vehicle in your path. This can be a real asset in an area with remote-operated weapons, but auto-piloted cars or even simple vending machines and advertising signs can be useful for creating diversions.

Remote

Stance

You establish a link with an object, through which powers can be channeled. The object must be at least half as large as you are and no more than twice as heavy (generally withing three points of Body and must be cumbersome enough that somebody who wishes to protect it counts as defending somebody else. You must touch the target to establish the link, and if the link is to be maintained for a long time, this is often done under ritual circumstances. As long as you maintain this stance, you can use your senses and channel powers through the remote. When this power is active, any power you use can manifest through the remote, just as if you were there. The object still counts as unnamed, tough, and has only one hit.

Unlike many other powers of the technology form, this can be used with powers of any origin.

Ranging

Limit Break

You can use a single power without once range penalties. You must still see your target for spells that requires a line-of-sight, and Cover applies normally. Casting a spell through remote viewing (cameras, divination) causes a low rumble that prevents the target from being surprised.
