My Wave Book so Far
Tim Coxon
Coxoff@***.com
--------
Okay hello I have done a little work on the wave book things... I would like
some feedback on what I have so far as I don't want to do the whole lot and
everyone thinks it is a loada crud. The first few entries are from the various
nerps books before. I have tried to get the layout right (saves work for
Gurth) The idea's I have had are only prelimes. Fell free to add your own....
I kinda fizzled near the end so I just have the names for the items, stats for
them would be good.
Web Foot Legal
Extends thin webs from either side of foot, as well as webs between toes.
Essence Cost Availability Cost Street Index
0 4/5 days 20,000¥ 1
Doubles normal swimming speed, plus adds one die to Swimming skill.
Independant Air Supply Legal
A small artificial organ, filled with a spongy, oxygen fixing foam. Implanted
in the lower lungs, it doubles the time a person can hold his breath.
Body Cost Availability Cost Street Index
.7 4/7 days 50,000¥ 1
Can be combined with the Extended Volume modification (p.31, Shadowtech), but
the Extended Volume modifiers are applied after those for the Independant Air
Supply: a character with a Body of 4, an Independant Air Supply, and Extended
Volume level 2 can hold his breath for 4 x 30 x 2 + 90 = 230 seconds.
Air Breathing Gurth
This spell allows creatures that normally live under water and cannot breathe
air (such as fish, but not dolphins) to breathe and survive when not under
water. The subject can still breathe under water. This spell requires a
voluntary subject.

CONGEN "SEABREATH" SECONDARY GILLS LEGAL
The burgeoning oceanic population has created an intense demand for workers
capable of long term work at moderate underwater depths. Now ConGen debuts the
answer: the Seabreath respiratory rebuild. Our unique osmotic membranes are
installed in flow channels located in slits between the ribs to maximize gas
exchange with water passing through the mouth. By slightly reducing your
excess lung capacity, and installing a secondary tracheal valve, we make it a
simple matter to switch from breathing air to dwelling in the watery home of
our ancient ancestors. After installing Seabreath we guarantee that whole new
areas of underwater employment will open up to you or we'll refund your money!
Take the first step towards a bright future today—call today to schedule your
Seabreath rebuild.
Body Cost Availability Cost Street Index
2 8/8 days 30,000¥ 1
The user can breathe indefinitely in oxygenated water. The large absorption
area of the gills make subjects with this modification especially vulnerable
to airborne toxins (+3 target number to Resistance Tests), and the delicate
tissues of the gills are sensitive to damage (additional Light Wound from any
blow to the torso for shock to the structure, gamemaster's discretion).
SHUKUTEI BIOMED "PHIBIA" AQUATIC WEBBING LEGAL
Return to your ancestral home in style! Our new webbing rebuilds let you move
through the water with the greatest of ease—and with a speed that would put an
unmodified Olympic swimmer to shame. Custom designed bone and skin lines are
used to elongate your digits and create a froglike membrane of skin between
them. See ya' at the beach!
Level Body Cost Availability Cost Street Index
1 .6 4/5 days 5,000¥ 1
2 1.2 5/5 days 8,000¥ 1.25
With level 1, your hands are webbed. See the rules on page 77 of Fields of
Fire for swimming, but divide by 3 instead of 4.
Level 2 is a rebuild of hands and feet. Divide the swimming distance by 2
instead of 4.
Either level gives a –1 target number for the purposes of manipulation.

Stuff that I thought of:
LIQUID LUNG LEGAL
This external device is connected to the users back. A small port in the user
back connect directly into the users Cardio-vascular system. The system run on
Oxygenated Fluoro-Carbons (the user needs to have had his blood replaced by
OFCE) This O2/CO2 transfer system has a hundred % efficiency. So you can stay
down for longer, and because you aren't breathing air it allows you to go as
deep as you want.
