Portunalia Mk7 Remote Interface Implant

2
The power to issue commands to technological devices.
Used by Liv Hall, Created by Iamangelofwar.
(Activating this Effect is not obvious. The only sign you are using an Effect is your eyes reflecting the programs you are running. )

This implant sits behind Liv’s left ear, a patch of metal that has an odd, unique port in it, alongside what appears to be slots for memory cards.

When she uses this implant, the implant projects the code across her eyes, making it nearly impossible to know what she’s doing unless you know what you are looking for.

Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. Select a Computer within 20 feet. Does not work on Alien technology. Roll Intellect + Technology, with the Difficulty set by the GM depending on the security of the system you are hacking. Sapient targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, you may issue a single command to the targeted system. This command must have a specific outcome or be a request for specific login credentials. The command you issue must be within the machine's current capabilities. For example, you cannot order a standard security camera to grow legs and walk around.

This Effect is not obvious, and the only sign you are using an Effect is your eyes reflecting the programs you are running. If someone suspects that an Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.

  • You cannot hack things outside of your range over remote connections such as the internet. The system you are affecting must be physically within range.
