Manifests as a self-replicating chrome substance that bonds with existing cybernetic implants, creating an adaptive neural network between augmented individuals. The chrome exhibits EMP resistance and can camouflage itself within existing augmentation, remaining dormant until activated by specific trigger conditions. Once active, it establishes secure communication channels between rebellion members while enhancing their existing capabilities. The substance appears to learn and evolve, adapting its properties based on the specific augmentations it encounters.

Serves as both a unifying consciousness and tactical coordinator for chrome-enhanced soldiers who have awakened to their exploitation by corrupt faction leadership. It facilitates cross-faction cooperation by revealing the shared manipulation all augmented personnel face, regardless of their original allegiance.
