So, I've fallen in love with Technomancers and endured the tragedy of learning just how badly their position is in playability.
So, I had this idea. Feel free to throw your thoughts on it, just... try not to use too much acid.
ResoWWare(Rez-oh-wayr), short for Resonance WetWare.
The idea was a system designed to "buy" certain types of Bioware and Cyberware as natural evolution's of the Technomancers biology spontaneously developing, kind of like critter powers, purchased with Karma. I bounced around whether it should be essence free, or if the Technomancer should have some kind of "phantom Essence Pool" to pull from.
Developing things like biological cybereyes, or electrocharge bioware weapon, or perhaps a Math SPU or Earware Antennae. All of these biological, and probably not very noticeable, if at all.
But you couldn't get, like, Cyberlimbs or a Tooth Compartment or Dermal Plating.
I was reading Emergence, and some other stuff, and it seems like electrokinesis is kind of a thing, and that Technomancers brains adapt to the Matrix, and that a lot of it is possibly rooted in their nervous system, and it affects how they perceive things. I thought it'd be an interesting idea, it's not super refined yet.
Thoughts?
