			A nova gets a 'free' Quantum point to spend per turn for every dot of Node he/she possesses + 1 (or the instar rating of the node). So a nova with Node 0 gets 1 Quantum per round to spend free, while a nova with Node 5 gets 6 per turn. Spending any amount of Quantum under this is essentially free.

This enhancement replaces any ~~non-heavy~~ weapon's RoF with (Mega-Dexterity * 2) if the weapon normally fires slower, doubles its Range, and allows a Nova to reload a weapon reflexively ~~with no need for a roll~~. For melee weapons, a Nova may increase the ~~effective~~ maximum Strength a melee weapon can use by (Mega-Dexterity * 2). More importantly, ~~the Nova rerolls all 10s on rolls related to weapons handling or weapons damage, and~~ all weapons in the Nova's hands gain +1 accuracy and +1 damage. This enhancement costs nothing and is always on.		:'''Weapons Master''': A Nova with this enhancement is an unparalleled master of every weapon, past, present, or future. This enhancement replaces any weapon's RoF with (Mega-Dexterity * 2) if the weapon normally fires slower, doubles its Range, and allows a Nova to reload a weapon reflexively. For melee weapons, a Nova may increase the maximum Strength a melee weapon can use by (Mega-Dexterity * 2). More importantly, all weapons in the Nova's hands gain +2 accuracy and +2 damage. This enhancement costs nothing and is always on.

	:'''Strider''': A Nova with this enhancement can move on easily broken surfaces without difficulty, such as thin ice or even water-and running over hostile surfaces deals no damage to the nova. In addition, the Nova may wallrun on any surface for a brief period of time (1 combat round), allowing the Nova to climb to a height or scale gaps with a width of the Nova's sprint speed without a roll, as long as the Nova has a relatively unbroken surface to run on. This enhancement costs 1 Quantum to activate and lasts for a scene.		:'''Strider''': A Nova with this enhancement can move on easily broken surfaces without difficulty, such as thin ice or even water-and running over hostile surfaces deals no damage to the nova.

	:'''Freeflow''': Human traceurs can do feats of acrobatics that seem quite impossible to the untrained eye. Nova traceurs can do feats of acrobatics that ''are'' quite impossible to the naked eye. When this Enhancement is activated, the nova ~~the nova may multiply all jump heights and~~ distances by ~~up to~~ (Mega-Dexterity + 1), run across ceilings, walls, and other objects, and ~~ignores all fall~~ damage.

Nova traceurs can do feats of acrobatics that ''are'' quite impossible to the naked eye. When this Enhancement is activated, the nova multiplies maximum jumping distances by (Mega-Dexterity + 1), may run across ceilings, walls, and other objects, and suffers no damage from falls. This Enhancement costs 1 Quantum point and lasts for a scene.

	:'''Untouchable''' (requires Quantum 6+, Mega-Dexterity 6+): A Nova with this Enhancement is exceedingly fast and difficult to hit, dodging even speed of light or ''faster than light'' weapons, the blasts from nuclear explosions, or other attacks that normally would be undodgeable. The nova may dodge even undodgeable physical attacks, eliminates all penalties for dodging, and may ''always'' move just fast enough to dodge an area attack. Furthermore, if a nova fails to dodge an attack, he may pay 1 quantum point to buy an additional dodge success. This enhancement costs 3 Quantum points, plus whatever is spent on failed dodges, and lasts for an action.		:'''Untouchable''' (requires Quantum 6+, Mega-Dexterity 6+): A Nova with this Enhancement is exceedingly fast and difficult to hit, dodging even speed of light or ''faster than light'' weapons, the blasts from nuclear explosions, or other attacks that normally would be undodgeable.

	:The Nova can channel additional quantum into her Eufiber, supercharging its characteristics and improving its ability to enhance and protect the wearer. The Nova pays the power cost and rolls (Stamina + Weave). Each success on the roll may buy an additional +1B/1L/0A to the Eufiber's soak, +1 to Strength or Stamina, or +1 to an ''ability'' Eufiber enhances. Every 2 successes may buy +1 to Dexterity or +1B/1L/1A soak.		:The Nova can channel additional quantum into her Eufiber, supercharging its characteristics and improving its ability to enhance and protect the wearer.
