+{{Name}} is a [[Cybernetics|cybernetic implant]] which gives the creature it is implanted in the ability to temporarily  enhance their [[quickness]], albeit for only a short time and with a period of decreased quickness afterwards.
+The gained ability is called "Inflate axons" and at baseline grants 40 additional quickness for 10 rounds. Upon activation, the following text is printed into the user's message log {{color | g |The hurdles that separate the will and the way begin to collapse}}, the user will then temporarily gain the {{color | g |hyper-responsive}} status [[effect]] which will last for the duration of the ability, after the effect's conclusion {{color | r | You feel slugglish}} will be printed into the message log and the user  will gain the {{color | r |sluggish}} effect, sluggish reduces the affected [[creatures|creature's]] quickness by 10 for ten rounds.
+The cybernetic does scale with compute power, improving the quickness bonus and duration by 4 and 1 for every 10 power. While the ability's cooldown is unaffected by compute power it will however start incrementing down immediately after activation, effectively translating to a lower overall cooldown the higher the user's computer power is.
 They can be found randomly throughout the world, especially in the {{favilink|cybernetics rack|plural}} found near {{favilink|Becoming nook|plural}}. Additionally, {{name}} is one of the possible starting implants which a [[True Kin]] character can choose during character generation.

+==Advantages & Disadvantages==
+{{opinion}}
+===Advantages===
+*Can use the additional quickness to preform various actions during combat at no risk, such as injecting tonics, reloading a ranged weapon or using abilities.
+*Useful for quickly defeating single targets or for reducing overall damage taken while surrounded by multiple enemies.
+*Scales fairly well with compute power, allowing for a decently strong and long-lasting bonus with only moderate investment.
+===Disadvantages===
+*Baseline quickness bonus is somewhat low without additional support.
+*Relatively long cooldown can make it challenging to use consistently without high Willpower.
+*The ten turn -10 quickness penalty can be potentially deadly depending on the siltation.
+==Tips==
+*The implant even without additional compute power becomes substantially more effective when used along with other sources of quickness, such as {{favilink|leyline puppeteers}} or {{favilink|blaze injector|plural}}.
+*Axons can help enable certain strategies which are otherwise hampered by their generally expensive turn economy, such as more effectivity allowing the repeated use of{{favilink|bow and rifle}} related skills or by better letting the user mass [[tinkering|tinker]] and throw [[grenades]] in combat with {{favilink|Micromanipulator array}} and {{favilink|grafted mirror arm|plural}}.
+*Can be used as a reasonably strong escape tool, especially when paired with {{favilink|sprint}} or other sources of additional movement speed.
