Auditory Enhancers & Auditory Systems
Furtherman EVD
The EVD (short for "eavesdropper") allows characters to better hear sounds
within the normal frequency range. This provides a +2 to Perception checks that
involve hearing.
Furtherman LF
This unit allows the character to more clearly hear low frequency sounds and those below
the normal Human range of hearing. It provides a +1 bonus to Perception checks when
listening to such sounds.
Furtherinan HF
This auditory unit lets characters hear high frequency sounds, those above the normal
Human range. It provides a +1 bonus to Perception check to discern such sounds.
Furtherman Private Investigator
This auditory system is combined with a subvocally-controlled computer chip that allows a
listener to filter out undesired sounds. For instance, if the character is in a busy
TramWay and he wants to listen in on someone's conversation a few pillars down, then he
can cut out any of the conversations of people between him and his target. I get all my
best contracts this way.
[Each major group of sounds takes one round to cut out, but the Private
Investigator then generates a +2 to auditory Perception rolls.]
McGinley ListenDog
Like the WatchDogs, auditory systems can also be repositioned about the body. All of the
same options as the WatchDog are available, including the custom designs. Needless to say,
one can quickly see the benefit of the extra set of eyes and ears that a SenseDog can
give.
Ear Tap
Ear tap lets the user tap into local radio transmissions. The user can select a frequency
or set it to scan a range of frequencies. A built-in processor allows received
transmissions to be sifted for a specific pattem, so the user can search for a particular
phrase or sound (i.e. voice, hum, repeated pattern) across a range of frequencies. A
neural jack is needed so that the user can change frequencies at will.
[Adds +2 to auditory Perception attempts when receiving frequencies and/or
searching for a particular pattern.]
NetWorld Sonar Sound
Sonar Sound lets your ears act as sonar receptors. A mini-unit implanted elsewhere in the
body projects an inaudible (to most species) signal. Bounce-back is received by the ears.
Information may be displayed to the eyes via a Brodie LED or similar system.
[Adds +1 toPerception attempts in dimly-lit conditions when using sonar
information.]
