[Implant] - air current microsensor

---

Near the Fuming God Sea, where seawater crashes into sunrock and erupts into mephitic vapor, a labyrinth of volcanic grottos form a dimensionless space where the utility of sight wanes. For the children of the deep, new senses wax in its stead.

Staircases and other up/down map transitions are always revealed to you.

Target body parts: Body, Head

air current microsensor is a lower cost cybernetic which reveals staircases and other up/down map transitions.

Upon installation, after taking turn in a zone, the user will be given partial sight of any present up and down map transitions. This sight is akin to having previously explored the tile but it not being within the user's current vision. Revealed transitions include:stairs up, stairs down, deep shafts and open-air pits such as those found at the bottom of Golgotha.

Revealed transitions are considered explored but not visible, meaning that certain abilities such as Jump which are dependent upon the target tile being visible, will not function if a revealed, but not visible transition is selected as a target. This restriction does not however apply to all movement ablities, high-fidelity matter recompositer

It is available during character creation to True Kin from Yawningmoon (those of the Child of the Hearth, Child of the Wheel, Child of the Deep, and Fuming God-Child castes).

Advantages & Disadvantages

Advantages

• Can make navigating certain locations with guaranteed up/down transitions such as the Rust Wells or Bethesda Susa much faster.
• Can assist in quickly finding staircases up when lost underground without a recoiler.
• Makes it somewhat easier to manually descend strata
• Low cost allows for easy installation without much impact on the user's ability to install addtional implants.

Disadvantages

• Very difficult to find outside of character creation
• Can be replaced by the more functional optical multiscanner
• Outside of locations with guaranteed up/down transtions

Tips

• Revealed staircases are considered an explored tile for the purposes of high-fidelity matter recompositer allowing the user to instantly teleport to any staircase present in a zone, potentially enabling rapid descent in locations with guaranteed up and down screen transitions, such as the ruins and baroque ruins
