GADGETEER: Will relies heavily on his gadgets and tools. While he now has the skill and experience to get by without them, his abilities are considerably diminished when he's without them. If somehow stripped of all of his gear, Will operates two PLs lower until he can reclaim them, or until he can scrounge up replacements to get by. | GADGETEER: Will relies heavily on his gadgets and tools.

− | SIROCCO: One of Will's own personal projects. Effectively a pair of mechanized roller skates, Sirocco is a pair of boots equipped with miniature servo motors that allow Will greater mobility and a stable mobile firing position as long as he has both feet on the ground. They're capable of transitioning between high traction wheels and a steel sole. Will has nearly perfected their design, his personal experience in their success and failure leading him to reinforce the servo motors and refine the armor shape for greater comfort, control and stability. The inclusion of a pair of combat-grade Ancient shock absorbers also allows him some degree of protection from falls as long as he lands on his feet. | + | |GADGETS=SIROCCO: One of Will's own personal projects.

ZEPHYR: A mixture of arm-brace and grappling hook, this device was developed after Will decided that he'd had enough falling from way too high and nearly dying because of it. The Zephyr's grapnel consists of a high-strength, electromagnetically-launched grappling hook tethered by high-tension ceramic cable to a bracer. Will is able to launch and retract the grapnel with specific hand-gestures, allowing for easy use, and the high-velocity launch mechanism allows the hook to dig into most construction material, up to and including concrete. For safety reasons, the bracer is supported by a larger brace that covers much of Will's arm, and the grapnel component can detach if it becomes a liability. The bracer itself serves as additional arm protection in emergencies. | ZEPHYR: A mixture of arm-brace and grappling hook, this device was developed after Will decided that he'd had enough falling from way too high and nearly dying because of it.

Will has done his best to mitigate the T-45's most glaring vulnerabilities, and has supplemented its relatively thin armor with shaped plates of Ancient metamaterial, making it capable of absorbing and dissipating greater-than-normal energy damage. He has also incorporated a charge cable for the Solano into the armor, though its use can rapidly drain the fusion core. Will has also added a number of other useful features, such as an improved targeting system, improved motion-assist servos, tool harness, high-impact shock absorbers and a version of the Sirocco boots built specifically for integration into the T-45's legs. | Will has done his best to mitigate the T-45's most glaring vulnerabilities, and has supplemented its relatively thin armor with shaped plates of Ancient metamaterial, making it capable of absorbing and dissipating greater-than-normal energy damage.

The Mistral includes a number of hidden features, such as a built-in energy jack jury-rigged to connect to the Solano to boost its output. Will has modified the motorcycle further, adding a thruster system for a small amount of vertical mobility (and for greater jump-distance). He has also upgraded its armor with Ancient metamaterial, allowing it to more easily absorb energy damage. | The Mistral includes a number of hidden features, such as a built-in energy jack jury-rigged to connect to the Solano to boost its output.

The Chorus also mounts an energy jack for the Solano, and can attain top speeds much greater than what its original form was capable of. This is largely due to its new propulsion system, but also because the plates that Will has covered the hull with appear to have some degree of drag reduction capability, letting the Chorus cut quickly and quietly through water. Its armor also affords it a degree of concealment against conventional radar, with signals often vanishing completely into the material. | The Chorus also mounts an energy jack for the Solano, and can attain top speeds much greater than what its original form was capable of.

A young Chaser with everything to prove, Will Pauwel delves into the remnants of the ancient world to uncover the secrets of this one. An avid explorer from a long lineage of Chasers, Will's chosen profession has him diving head-first into long-buried ruins to retrieve the fragmentary knowledge of the ancients. Having lost his parents at an early age Will is pressured by his past as he searches for hints as to their ultimate fate, even as he is drawn towards the future. He carries with him his family's precious gun, a boundless sense of adventure, an undeniable eagerness, and a measure of new confidence that comes with surviving in a dangerous line of work. Will's skills have grown since he began his adventures in the multiverse, seeing him grow from a greenhorn and liability into an effective adventurer and explorer in his own right.
