Notes

Benefit: A paired-engineered adrenal gland graft with overclocked output. Once per encounter, trigger a surge as a free action for 4 rounds: +3 to STR-based attack and damage, +3 Reflex, +15 ft movement, immunity to fear and stun for the duration, and +1 to Fortitude saves vs pain and poison for the duration. Moderate to major benefit level. Does not stack with the Engineered Adrenal Gland surge or with chemical stims; choose one.

Install Risk: Medicine DC 19 for the paired gland graft. Recipient makes a Fortitude save DC 16 or gains Botched Implant: hormonal cascade, random rage triggers under stress and -2 Will until a Medicine DC 17 stabilisation. Failure by 5+ leaves a permanent -1 WIS from the cascade.

Strain: Harder crash. When the surge ends, Fortitude DC 15 or become Fatigued for 1d4 rounds and Staggered 1 round. Daily use compounds: each surge after the first in a day imposes a cumulative -1 to Fortitude and Will from burnout until a full week of rest. The twin gland requires a monthly Medicine DC 13 service or the surge bonus drops by 1 until serviced.
