Ok, we all can accept that they're damn near perfect on the physical plane, at
least as far as normal and likely low-light vision are concerned, but that
they leave a lot to be desired as far as astral perception goes.
What if you were to impregnate each hanging strand on the ghillie suit with a
harmless form of algae or fungus? On the astral, this would provide sort of a
cloak, as the humanoid aura would largely masked by the vegetable aura...
while it wouldn't be perfect, it would likely keep the humanoid aura from
looking like a paint splash on a hillside covered with dark vegetable auras.
This might also help a small bit with thermographic vision, as I believe the
plants would change the dispersal of the heat, possibly helping avoid a casual
scan with thermo (because your heat would disperse differently, you wouldn't
look as obviously human... at least until the ohter armies of the world caught
onto your trick).
What do you think?
