Most CROs communicate with their team using state of the art, credit card-sized transistor radios tucked away in a pocket or strapped to strategic points along the torso and limbs. These radios are unlike anything available on the consumer market, allowing for simultaneous two- way communication and multi-user “conference calls.” Instead of a microphone and speaker, CYCLOPS has developed a rubberized flesh-toned wire with a micro- motor tip for vibrating in- and out-going audio through the wearer’s cartilage.

The chest-mounted teleporter relay instantly transports the user to the nearest CYCLOPS facility when the cord is pulled. CYCLOPS has no way to identify who is using a relay until target-site atomic reconstruction is complete, which can lead to major confusion if the incoming user turns out to be an enemy operative.

For high-profile assassinations or missions which require leaving no trace of an agent's presence, CYCLOPS uses proprietary “dissolving ammunition" which contains a strain of specially-cultivated alien bacteria capable of rapidly metabolizing lead (as well as flesh, to a certain extent—dissolving ammo deals an additonal 1 DAMAGE). Dissolving ammo is a finite resource, so you should either track your shots directly (dissolving ammo clips have 6 shots), or use the abstract ammo tracking rules (p. 73).

CYCLOPS employs compact, belt-mounted appearance scramblers to hide obviously ultrahuman operatives. Push a button and the scrambler will project a combination hologram-psionic shell which fools onlookers into perceiving an unremarkable civilian. The scrambler is thorough down to the user’s voice and mannerisms, but cannot simulate any existing person due to quantum interference. The holographic shell has only 3 HP and takes DAMAGE alongside the user, so the device must remain well-protected its entire 12-hour battery life.

Although CYCLOPS has at least indirect control over all law enforcement agencies, covering one's tracks is still a constant concern. The fingerprint neutralizer is a bulky, pistol-shaped device which projects a short-range cone of sebum-disturbing sonic vibration. Once used, prints on any surface become distorted and illegible.

Despite the ensuing stable time loop, CYCLOPS Command has deemed their decision to build miniaturized cold fusion reactors based upon their own blueprints from the distant future “an acceptable risk." The briefcase- sized generator can supply a city grid's worth of power for 24 hours—if pushed beyond this point, it will erupt in a small nuclear explosion which deals 10D6 DAMAGE.

The false death implant is a time-honored trick: a molar- implanted pill which, when ingested, perfectly simulates death (in fact cadaverous sleep) for twenty-four hours.

The anti-mnemonic syringe can easily be mistaken for an oddly dense steel ballpoint pen. When used on a major artery, the victim's bloodstream is flooded with a chemical compound that induces a several hour blackout, followed by general amnesia. The syringe is wondrously effective for memory wipes, leaving the afflicted with no recollection of the past day and a feeling of “lost time."
