Voidrunner Clothing

Weapons and armor are not all there is to survival — effective medical care, reliable communication, or the right cyberware at the right time can all mean the difference between living to share stories at the end of the day or being sent home in a small box. While most of the items found in Adventurer’s Guide are still available if one knows where to look, many of them have modernized versions listed here. The following section describes general and specialized gear commonly used by voidrunners.

Technology advancements do not bypass the humble garment, and never had. Throughout time people have sought to make their clothing more suited to the way they live their lives, and with the improvement of technology, more specialized garments emerge.

Diver's Suit. This kit includes a wetsuit, swim fins, an oxygen tank, and a diving mask with rebreather. It allows a diver to stay submerged for an hour before needing to change oxygen tanks and gives them advantage on Athletics checks related to swimming. Light armor can be worn with a diving suit, without issue but medium armor tends to make swimming exhausting, requiring a DC 13 Constitution save every minute to avoid gaining a level of fatigue. Heavy armor generally sinks the character wearing it, rendering swimming impossible.

Ghillie Suit. Favored by snipers and others highly-reliant on stealth in natural surroundings, a ghillie suit is made up of shaggy-looking fabric strips hanging from a mesh suit. It makes the wearer look like a pile of loose vegetation when still. A ghillie suit only works in the environment it was designed for, but in that environment, it grants advantage on Stealth checks. It is worn over armor.

Optical Camouflage Cloak. This hooded cloak contains an array of sensors and a fiber optic mesh that mimics the look of whatever the user is standing in front of. It does not grant true invisibility, but the wearer has advantage on Stealth checks based on sight and can use the Hide action even when directly observed. The user has a passive Stealth score of 17 even in open environments and bright light as long as the cloak is active. It is worn over armor.

Tactical Clothing. Favored by militaries, emergency services personnel, and field repairmen alike, this clothing comes in a variety of colors and camouflage patterns and has a large number of convenient pockets to keep equipment in. A camouflaged version grants an expertise die to Stealth checks in a corresponding terrain type.
It includes pants and a shirt worn underneath armor and a vest which fits over body armor, allowing the wearer to keep up to 8 lbs. of items with individual weights of no more than 1 lb. easy at hand. Retrieving an item stored this way can be done as a bonus action or action.
