You are an expert in the use of cloaking tech-items like mirage-cloaks and metamaterial shields. With this skill you can render yourself invisible as long as you don’t move. If a target of the tech power does anything else than hiding - and maybe moving slowly - the cloaking will no longer cover that target.

Momentum Transfer Core
Agility
Quickness
Intuition

You channel your own movement into your ranged weapon, converting kinetic energy from running, sliding, or vaulting into amplified projectile force at the moment of firing. Only works in short range and for weapons that does not require you to stand still (such as the Warbow and Composite Bow and heavier rifles).

Nanofiber Tangle Net
Memory
Self Discipline

Smart Round Optimizer
Boldness
Agility
Intuition

This module enhances guided or self-correcting ammunition with advanced terminal guidance algorithms. By constantly recalibrating trajectory mid-flight, the rounds strike at weak points and exposed angles with far greater precision. The optimization does not increase the number of hits, but greatly improves the chance of delivering a critical strike once contact is made.

Smoke Deployment
Presence
Reasoning
Agility

The drone carries specialized smoke canisters and deploys them on command, releasing a dense particulate cloud that blocks sightlines. The smoke disperses quickly but is thick enough that no vision—natural or technological—can penetrate it. This makes it an effective tool for breaking line of sight, covering retreats, or disrupting enemy targeting.
