This advanced system is fine-tuned to protect only the user, ensuring that its effects do not extend to the surrounding environment or unintended targets. As the shield requires no visible components, it offers unparalleled stealth and versatility, making it ideal for scenarios where both defense and discretion are paramount. The Orbital Shield provides a perfect balance of impenetrable protection and minimal environmental impact, embodying the pinnacle of personal shielding technology.

Adaptive Genetics
"This is one one of the final outcomes the Hybridization program hoped for. I'm finishing their work. I don't know how I feel about this."
The injector plunges in. Rapid onset fever, elevated heart-rate, some hyperventilation. It settles, typically. The retrovirus isn't perfect. But for the moment, it's good enough. The outcome is striking. Skin or fur blotches, growing patterns that settle into something resembling the background. A formless shape. With an act of will, it can change. Thickened padding, making one silent, or modified sweat glands, eliminating your scent.
It doesn't last forever - not this revision, at least. The body doesn't like it, fights it. Takes it about a half hour to win, on average. But for that time, you're pretty hard to spot.
