Within Shadoweave there are hundreds of items and equipment available to use. Because of this, the items are broken up into different pages based on their mechanics, uses, or license requirement.

Below is a list of these pages broken into sections. The sections are based on what type of in-game activity or situation the item is most often used.

It’s important that you have read and understand how licensing works so you can know what objects are available to you.

Not all items require licenses, but many big or dangerous ones do.

Bio Modifications

Bio-Modifications are devices that are designed to be implanted into living tissue (bone, organ, skin, etc.) to enhance your performance or give you new abilities.

Bio-modifications require a skilled surgeon to install them, adding adds another level of complexity to acquiring a bio-modification, and often, an additional cost.

A surgeon must have a Medical III License and a Bio License that is at the same level or higher than the required license for the bio-modification to be installed. In addition, The surgeon requires access to a fully stocked and sterile surgical room (typically through a hospital).

Bio-modifications are typically purchased from a hospital, and the cost to have it installed is 50 credits per hour for each bio-license level required of the modification.

Once a bio-modification is successfully implanted, you lose 1 humanity. The modification and the lost humanity are permanent unless you remove the implant and replace it with either another implant in the same location or an appropriate biological organ (artificial or natural) through surgery.

Malfunction. If a bio-modification is ever disabled, broken, or glitches in a way that prevents you from using it, it causes the device to malfunction. While the device is malfunctioning, you gain none of the benefits of the bio-modification. You also suffer the device’s malfunction effect, detailed within each bio-modification. If a medical device or other effect would cure the malfunction effect (such as a remedy curing an ailment), it instead suppresses the malfunction effect for a number of hours equal to your fortitude.
