platings
An augment consisting of microfilament mesh laid under the skin, reinforced by structural nanites and bone reinforcement, that turns the covered body part into something only an industrial-grade laser or military-grade weapon can cut. Plating also redistributes impact force and adds modest strength, particularly in grip. Bought and installed piece by piece, often starting with head and chest. STD:FWH:Ch 4
Known facts
- chest-plating-needs-online-passwordThe chest plating's status reads Offline; bringing it back online demands a password the menu will not hint at, the troubleshooting link is just an unreachable web page, and there is no local manual — basic detective passwords get him nowhere.STD:FWH:Ch 9
- forcibly-disabled-by-external-commandWhen John tries again to enable his combat platings, a new system message appears: *Platings forcibly disabled by external command. You aren't getting them back, Johnny. Stop trying.* Someone with above-user access has reached in and locked them — and is mocking him by name.STD:FWH:Ch 18
