Singular

TwistedAkai: New Merit.

{{Merit|name=Singular|desc=By some strange quirk, your body seems to just prefer being one whole mutation program. Whenever you are exposed to mutation, you begin changing entirely towards this new self.|cost=5}}

Nanite Adept (dedication)

2012-08-21T14:43:03Z

TwistedAkai: Replaced mentions of Total Badge with Form Mastery.

Zephyr Labs will accept your loyalty and offers SCIENCE! in return.

==Location==
Costs 50 Mako to dedicate yourself in the lab one step north and one west of Triage.

==Powers==
Grants the power to shift into any form you have mastered. Also grants access to the Recall command which allows you to teleport to your dedication point and then back to where you last recalled from. Finally you gain the [[Reconstruct]] power for combat use as you force your nanites to return to a non-bleeding pattern.

'shift' by itself lists the forms you have available. 'shift blue gryphon' changes all your body parts and gender settings to the Blue Gryphon default and costs 40 energy.

==Additional Equipment==
Two additional options are available for Nanite Adepts: the [[Nanite Fine Tuner]] is an inventory item that costs 50 mako and allows you to shift individual body parts with the 'shift legs=ashen matriarch' command. The [[Nanite Focus Device]] allows anyone with the Nanite Adept badge to use the Fine Tuner while not currently an Adept. The [[Nanite Social Devolutionizer]] is the opposite of monster bait; using it will reduce the spawn chance of a selected mutation. The [[Nanite Carnal Equalizer]] allows you to take on the gender and proportions of a species without actually changing species, and bypasses size restriction perks. The [[Nanite Spatial Recalculator]] allows an Adept to shift their size without changing any of their parts, the [[Nanite Resistor]] can be used to toggle infection immunity on and off, and the [[Nanite Sexual Stabilizer]] can lock/unlock your groin stats and keep them from changing. Finally, the [[Nanite Gender Assigner]] lets you use whichever bits you feel like using.

==Thematic Information==

The Nanite Adepts are a phenomenon that started emerging around the Zephyr building area not too long after P-Day. Individuals, seemingly at random, noticed an increased, sudden control over the nanites in their body, being able to recall complete infections they previously were subjected to. While some praise this as a sort of emotional bond to their nanites, and others see it as a sort of evolution of their new state, the truth is more worrying and mundane at the same time;
The Nanite Adept Project initiated by Zephyr Labs partially sees to the regular introduction of CnC Nanites into the food an drink supply of the Zephyr Building's cantina. The CnC Nanites, short for Command and Control, are supposed to settle down in the subject's body, and by forming a communication and control link between the subject's brain and the nanites distributed in their body, allow them to conciously or subconciously send the commands for activation of various stored forms to the infection nanites.

The CnC nanites, due to their highly complex mechanisms of linking to the subject's mental processing, are not compatible with most people of the populance. Despite regular ingestion, many people show no signs of the CnC nanites taking hold, and upon failure to do so the nanites leave the body through natural processing.

Note that ICly people are not aware of this experiment, unless they are involved in the shady background dealings of Zephyr. They just make up their own theories, altho paranoid natures certainly would notice a connection between the Zephyr Building location and the 'phenomenon'.

Next stages of the Nanite Adept Project include the [[Nanite Fine Tuner]] and the [[Nanite Carnal Equalizer]].
