	: The Electrokinetic Enhancement Suit (Militarized) is a prototype psi enhancement suit given to Orgotek field operatives, adding +4 to Psi for power duration and effect when using Electrokinetic modes. It also incorporates a biocomputer inside, which can be used as any other computer. Somewhat fragile and extremely expensive, only Orgotek field operatives have been spotted wearing such a system. A nonmilitarized version lacks the redundant backups and the armoring, but is only Tolerance 3. Whenever hit by any weapon, the nonmilitarized version loses 1 dot of Enhancement, and must be repaired at a high-end biotech facility when all bonuses are lost.		: The Electrokinetic Enhancement Suit (Militarized) is a prototype psi enhancement suit given to Orgotek field operatives, adding +4 to Psi for power duration and effect when using Electrokinetic modes.

	: The Inside-Out is a enhancement suit used by biokinetics which provides great benefits, resembling a human skeleton woven on a skintight fiber-weave suit. The bones are ceramic-reinforced, and the weave is carbon nanotube over vat-grown musculature interwoven with ballistic resistant fibers. A Psion formatted to the suit gains adds +2 to all Biokinesis Modes save Transmogrification (this does not unlock new powers, but ''does'' increase passive benefits and improves power level). However, the suit does not change shape, adding +2 to the difficulty of all Transmogrification rolls while wearing it.		: The Inside-Out is a enhancement suit used by biokinetics which provides great benefits, resembling a human skeleton woven on a skintight fiber-weave suit.

	: A BioVAS (Biological Vacuum Assault Suit) is a highly advanced biotech suit of body armor that must be custom-formatted to its user. Enhancing strength, endurance, and agility via powerful artificial muscles and providing protection against all but the heaviest weapons with heavy pseudochitin plates, a BioVAS plugs into the user's cardiovascular system and provides power assistance and life support for a week in a hostile environment. A BioVAS may not be used unformatted.		: A BioVAS (Biological Vacuum Assault Suit) is a highly advanced biotech suit of body armor that must be custom-formatted to its user.

	: The Chameleon BioVARG is one of the smallest VARGs in existence, and it is quite possible to fit one inside built-up terrain such as the inside of buildings or starships without difficulty. It also serves a purpose in allowing a Psion formatted to one to fight weaker Novas on even footing. A Chameleon BioVARG's hands are sized for human weaponry and as such can use any human weapons, but a shoulder harness allows the Psion to wield any light VARG weapon. A Chameleon is a suit of power armor-but nevertheless, requires some piloting skill because the VARG responds faster than the body and takes it for the ride.		: The Chameleon BioVARG is one of the smallest VARGs in existence, and it is quite possible to fit one inside built-up terrain such as the inside of buildings or starships without difficulty.

	: Intended for protecting against environmental hazards, CBRN suits are shielded against all conventional biotech threats, and the most advanced versions even have noetically-active biotechnology to limit the ill effects of teratogen exposure. CBRN suits are tough and self-sealing, but every time the user takes damage from an attack that penetrates (i.e. deals more than ping damage) in an environmental threat environment, roll 1d10. On a '1', the suit is breached for long enough that the user suffers the ill effects of the threat for 1 turn.		: Intended for protecting against environmental hazards, CBRN suits are shielded against all conventional biotech threats, and the most advanced versions even have noetically-active biotechnology to limit the ill effects of teratogen exposure.

	: A far more sophisticated variation on the early powered exoskeletons used by China, the EU, and the US during the Nova age, the Vacuum Assault Suit is a hardtech suit of heavy armor plate over acrylic muscle that responds to nervous signals and a shape-memory alloy exoskeleton that resists deformation. Roughly comparable to the BioVAS listed below, the standard hardtech VAS has lower endurance and reliability than the BioVAS owing to its less advanced self-repair systems. A standard VAS has enough power to operate for 24 hours without recharging, 96 hours if used in minimal power mode (without the attribute bonuses), and is fully sealed against all environmental threats, with both Vacuum and CBRN protection.		: A far more sophisticated variation on the early powered exoskeletons used by China, the EU, and the US during the Nova age, the Vacuum Assault Suit is a hardtech suit of heavy armor plate over acrylic muscle that responds to nervous signals and a shape-memory alloy exoskeleton that resists deformation.

	~~'''Armor Health Levels'''<br>~~
	Some armor provides additional ''health levels''. These health levels represent the armor's bulk or ablative components absorbing harm that would otherwise injure the wearer, and take damage first before the wearer does. Armor health levels do not heal naturally, but may be repaired. If the armor is removed, the damage the armor has taken stays with the armor, not the wearer.

	Armor can be modified 'in the field' with a general-purpose toolkit and some time.

These penalties apply only against visual, infrared, or ultraviolet imaging-characters with senses such as echolocation or electromagnetic field sense may ignore this penalty at ST discretion.		'''System''': A Chameleon with the Armor Sculpt mod requires +1 additional Tolerance. When activated, the pilot spends 1 Psi to initiate the app for a scene and rolls his Psi score. When stationary or moving at no faster than walking speed, each success adds +1 difficulty to rolls made to detect or attack the user. When moving faster than that, every 2 successes add +1 difficulty to rolls made to attack or detect the user.

			*'''Interface Suit''': Soak 0B/1L, Penalty -0, Mass 1.5, Destruction 10
			: Used to monitor the pilot of a VARG or the wearer of a VAS, this skintight interface suit is worn flush against the skin to monitor a pilot's vitals and analyze nerve signals to more fully interface with the system. Although installed interface plugs and biomonitors can replace the suit, the majority of VARG pilots lack the interface surgery and are reliant on these bodysuits.

			*'''Petrocotton Uniform''': Soak 0B/2L, Penalty -0, Mass 1.5, Destruction 20, Looks Dapper
			: Most 22nd century military uniforms are made of high-tensile strength and high-conductivity synthetic fibers, "Petrocotton", that provide some protection against shrapnel, electric discharge, and heat. These uniforms have been quickly adopted by people who need some protection against cuts, scrapes, and fire without any loss of mobility or flexibility.

	: Intended for protecting against environmental hazards, CBRN suits are shielded against all conventional biotech threats, and the most advanced versions even have noetically-active biotechnology to limit the ill effects of teratogen exposure. CBRN suits are tough and self-sealing, but every time the user takes damage from an attack that penetrates (i.e. deals more than ping damage) in an environmental threat environment, roll 1d10. On a '1', the suit is breached for long enough that the user suffers the ill effects of the threat for 1 turn.		: Intended for protecting against environmental hazards, CBRN suits are shielded against all conventional biotech threats, and the most advanced versions even have noetically-active biotechnology to limit the ill effects of teratogen exposure.

	: A 'crash suit' is a smart material form-fitting suit made of shear-thickening gel packs and piezoelectric fabric, which hardens to protect against impact. Designed primarily to protect against blows, these tend to be commonly used for athletes, but provide a decent amount of battlefield protection for light weight and high concealability.		: A 'crash suit' is a smart material form-fitting suit made of shear-thickening gel packs and piezoelectric fabric, which hardens to protect against impact.

	: Designed to protect the vitals from bullets and knife blows, a standard armor vest is high-tensile-strength fabric over light, semi-flexible monocrys inserts, providing heavy protection at low mass and bulk. Armor vests can be hidden under clothing.		: Designed to protect the vitals from bullets and knife blows, a standard armor vest is high-tensile-strength fabric over light, semi-flexible monocrys inserts, providing heavy protection at low mass and bulk.

	* '''Vacuum Assault Suit''': Soak 11B/11L, Strength + 3/Dexterity + 1/Perception + 1, 8 HLs~~, Mass 50~~, Bypass N/A, Destruction 40		* '''Vacuum Assault Suit''': Soak 11B/11L, Strength + 3/Dexterity + 1/Perception + 1, 8 HLs, Bypass N/A, Destruction 40, Mass 50
	: A far more sophisticated variation on the early powered exoskeletons used by China, the EU, and the US during the Nova age, the Vacuum Assault Suit is a hardtech suit of heavy armor plate over acrylic muscle that responds to nervous signals and a shape-memory alloy exoskeleton that resists deformation. Roughly comparable to the BioVAS listed below, the standard hardtech VAS has lower endurance and reliability than the BioVAS owing to its less advanced self-repair systems. A standard VAS has enough power to operate for 24 hours without recharging, 96 hours if used in minimal power mode (without the attribute bonuses), and is fully sealed against all environmental threats, with both Vacuum and CBRN protection.		: A far more sophisticated variation on the early powered exoskeletons used by China, the EU, and the US during the Nova age, the Vacuum Assault Suit is a hardtech suit of heavy armor plate over acrylic muscle that responds to nervous signals and a shape-memory alloy exoskeleton that resists deformation.
