![]() ![]() On Landunder, that means he’s sinking elsewhere that he is probably falling. Three or more degrees of failure mean that the character has overstretched his aerial pinions’ lines and become unmoored. Failure indicates that one of the lines doesn’t connect or one of the logic-engines fails momentarily, instantly halting the character. A separate Agility Test is required to use a Run or Charge Action. A character using the advanced six blade-and-line aerial pinions can make an Agility Test in order to move at normal rates for as long as he wishes, until he comes to a stop. A character using aerial pinions can move at half his normal rate, but can neither Run nor Charge. The upper shadows of a hive city are an excellent spot for an agile aerial pinion-equipped assassin to attack from. There is no shortage of dark places where it would be useful to hide, unobserved and unsuspected, on many worlds. There are rumours of acrobatic individuals finding uses for aerial pinions far from the chemical oceans of Landunder. A fully extended set of aerial pinions resembles a great pair of wings from a distance, hence the name. ![]() #DARK HERESY GEAR LIST UPGRADE#Skilled users eventually upgrade to a six blade-and-line setĪnd are capable of moving at truly remarkable speeds. Lines, while using the other two for cautious movement. Most harnesses support four blade-and-line sets, allowing a user to set two A diver using a set of aerial pinions typically connects two or more lines into the city or ground above, using the blades as either grappling hooks or spiking them deep into the crust of the planet, as the pinion’s logic-engines dictate. The lines are in turn attached to small motors that contain integral highly specialised logic-engines. A set of pinions resembles a webbed body harness festooned with articulated blades each of which is connected to a coiled, reinforced ceramite line. Chemical mining, research and undercity maintenance must all be done “outside”, which is when aerial pinions are employed. The “hanging” colonies of Landunder are mounted on the undersides of the planet’s continents floating upon a vast chemical sea. A somewhat misnamed apparatus, aerial pinions were not designed to allow a user to soar through the air, but rather to prevent divers from sinking to their deaths in the chemical oceans of Landunder. ![]()
