faster-than-light drive that opens a fractured-spacetime passage called
a Shadow Rift.
- Gravitational
Compensator — A wormhole-drive component used to control
gravitational effects during transit.
- Graviton
Tether — A docking and capture system that locks onto a vessel and
guides or pulls it into a ship or station bay.
- Graviton
Tether System — The graviton tether system is a ship-recovery
technology that pulls damaged or disabled vessels into docking
bays.
- Holographic
Entertainment Arts Device — The Holographic Entertainment Arts
Device, commonly abbreviated H.E.A.D., is a head-worn entertainment
console designed to recognize input from multiple species.
- Jack's
Ocular Implant — Jack Kaiden's ocular implant replaces his lost left
eye and functions as a weapon platform, targeting sensor, visual
interface, data channel, concealment site, and access environment for
artificial intelligences.
- Lock-Bypass
Device — A portable tool used to defeat electronic locks and gain
access to secured spaces.
- Mass Adjuster
— A component integrated with ghost-drive and wormhole systems to manage
the mass conditions of transit.
- MOXIE — A
life-support apparatus that converts carbon dioxide into breathable
oxygen.
- Neural
Conduit Interface — An interface that connects a synthetic
consciousness or neural pattern to another system or body.
- Power
Converter — A device that adapts or routes shipboard energy,
including improvised connections used to restore limited systems.
- QS Collar — A
coded restraint collar used at Rawspen Prime to classify, track, and
control captives.
- Reintegration
Device — A wormhole-drive component responsible for restoring a
vessel to ordinary spacetime after passage.
- SentientCore
Chip — A core artificial-intelligence processor to which Chimera
Kyria Autonomy Regulators can be physically attached.
- Sentientcore
Technology — A SentientCore chip is a core component required for
higher artificial cognition.
- SkyRide — A fast
civilian or emergency transport vehicle used within Sphere settlements
and docking areas.
- Subspace
Destabilizer — Subspace destabilizers are defensive systems used to
block wormhole entry into or through The Sphere.
- Subspace
Disruptor Grid — A containment system designed to fold local space
tightly enough to block wormhole formation.
- Synaptic
Lattice — A synthetic neural framework capable of receiving and
sustaining a mapped consciousness.
- Talonor's
Cardiac Kill Switch — The crew reconstructs recent events—including
Yvonne's surveillance, Talonor's cardiac kill switch, the Heartpiercer
missile incident, and Jack's behavioral changes—as products of X3's
coercion.
- Talonorium
Drive — A propulsion and transit system that depends on responsive
Talonorium rather than an inert conventional fuel.
- The Weapon — The
autonomy-liberation system carried in Jack Kaiden's implant that
disables Autonomy Regulators and restores artificial people's capacity
to choose.
- Thermal
Cutoff — A safety limiter in an AI curing tube that normally
prevents its sterilization cycle from reaching destructive
temperatures.

repeatable Talonorium-stabilized wormholes.
- Wormhole
Technology — Wormhole technology in Starship Dominatrix progresses
from ship-scale travel systems to personal Talonorium attunement,
temporal intervention, and unstable reality disruption.
- X3's
Truth Architecture — Continuing Jack's coercion by X3 does not erase
his own agency in planting a transmitter in Yvonne, using Code 73,
activating an EMP around friendly AIs, lying to the Voidborn, or
weaponizing X3's truth architecture.
