Notes

Benefit: Implanted mechanical filter-liver packed with replaceable activated-charcoal and enzyme cartridges. +2 to Fortitude saves against ingested and injected toxins, drugs, and alcohol, and you reduce the severity of any hangover or drug withdrawal by one step. Minor to moderate benefit level.

Install Risk: Medicine DC 14 to implant the filter unit and connect the portal vein. Recipient makes a Fortitude save DC 11 or gains Botched Implant: bile backlog, -1 to Fortitude vs toxins and persistent nausea until a Medicine DC 13 flush.

Origin: Station-side and caravan medical suppliers, originally for smelter crews and long-haul traders who live on recycled water and cheap spirits.

Signature: Legit. Kadiss-logged as industrial-station medical hardware, common enough on smelting decks and long-haul caravans that it draws no attention.

Strain: Cartridges saturate. Each cartridge handles about a week of heavy exposure or a single major toxin dose; a spent cartridge drops the bonus to +0 and leaves the carrier queasy until replaced. The carrier tastes charcoal constantly.
