Notes
Benefit: Archotech-grade full-body composite mesh with integral adaptive ceramic micro-plates and reactive impact-dispersal field. +5 natural armour bonus to AC that stacks with worn armour but not with another natural-armour source, the mesh resists 5 points of slashing or ballistic damage per hit and 2 points of energy (plasma, laser, charge) per hit, and you gain Damage Reduction 5/tech against mundane weapon types (a heavy weapon or a powered melee bypasses). Major benefit level, the package is treated as a single aug for capacity purposes.
Install Risk: Medicine DC 24 for the full-body Omega-Weave graft, with three weeks of recovery. Recipient makes a Fortitude save DC 20 or gains Botched Implant: weave cascade, the carrier takes double damage from energy attacks for 1d4 weeks and the reactive dispersal field is offline until a specialist Medicine DC 22 reset. Failure by 5+ requires surgical removal of the mesh layer and the carrier is Helpless 1d4 weeks.
Origin: Archotech vault-sealed chassis, issued to House senior retainers, Confederation Marine Commander-tier officers, and Ironball champion-tier brawlers.
Signature: Restricted to House senior retainers and Confederation Marine Commander-tier. Omega-Weave possession is logged with Argus at the highest tier; civil possession is forbidden. Ironball legal only in the champion-tier.
Strain: Heavy heat retention and weight. -4 to Fortitude saves vs heat, fire, and plasma effects (the mesh traps heat so completely the carrier must operate in cooled environments or risk heat-stroke in hot climates), -3 to Swim, -2 to Zero-G Ops, and the mesh shows on every med-scanner and weapon detector. The Omega-Weave requires a monthly specialist Medicine DC 15 service or the damage resistance drops to 3 points until serviced.
