_BIOTECH, "BIONICS"

Although cybernetics are programmed organically to be organically compatible with their host and use synthetic connections into the all other the host’s systems they are still for the most part made of inorganic materials.  The last great step for science in the field of cybernetics was the leap from the use of synthetic materials to growing biological equivalents to mechanical systems.  Adaptive biochains allow any cybernetic augmentations to be grown as biotech, also known as ‘bionics’. 

The technology required to produce biotech is rarer and more expensive than cybernetics.  Biotech items require +3 DC Wealth check more than their cybernetic equivalents.  Biotech occupies the same body systems as cybernetics and each body system is limited to a single augmentation without an augmentation plexus.  However, biotech and cybernetic augmentations are compatible and may be combined through use of an augmentation plexus.
