The N.A.P.S are a breakthrough in human bioengineering. N.A.P.S, which stands for Neural Activity Pattern Shapers, have the ability to shape the neural patterns of brains to bring skills and abilities into someone who otherwise wouldn't have them. It takes eight hours, but it can impart many skills. Lifting heavy objects, resistance to environments, a toughened body, and more. The only issues with the N.A.P.S are small in number, but terrifying in quality. It takes eight hours for the N.A.P.S to be properly applied as the user will be put into a sleeplike state, dreaming the memories of the person who originally had those skills (they had to have come from somewhere, right?). The other issue is that N.A.P.S, in themselves, are a traumatizing device. For one, the device needs to make a pathway to the brain. The best pathway that can be made is through the eye. The method? Two needles must be inserted directly into one of the user's two eyes and must be kept open for eight hours. The other problem is that skills may not be the only thing imparted onto the user of the N.A.P.S. They can carry fears, mental issues, traumas. Though it may have its problems, N.A.P.S will be one of the greatest ways to bring humanity to the next step of society.

The Future Soldier learned to create foam grenades in their own time period, and they still can, kinda. They look like glowing orange capsules with a rugged rubberized grip. When thrown, they burst into a splash of expanding neon orange foam. The foam hardens in seconds, severely hampering the movement of anyone unlucky enough to have been splashed. Those affected may use their hands or weapons to hack away at the foam and free themselves.
Occasionally, the fuses on these bootleg grenades fails, and they go off immediately.
Spend an Action and use up this small metallic grenade with pin (unless you succeed on 1d10, Difficulty 7). Make a thrown attack at a Location within normal attack range. Roll a single D10 as a critical failure check. If you roll a 1, the Effect fails, and you are hit as it activates immediately at your present location. The target may roll to dodge or defend, as normal for thrown attacks. The attack does not deal Damage, but the Effect does.
If you succeed, all affected targets will be restricted at their location by a physical, tangible binding. They can still move their arms and use Effects, but are reduced to ¼ of their movement speed.
The binding around a target must be destroyed in order for them to break free. Breaking the binding requires a total amount of Damage equal to twice the original Contested Outcome. Damage from multiple attacks is cumulative and stacks linearly.
