Guide to Xenobiology

Most reactions only require one unit of reagent for full effect. Dropper is your friend. There are exceptions though. Some reactions will create a liquid reagent inside the extract when injected once, and then deplete that extract. In those cases, using a higher volume syringe to inject will result in more units per extract. You must then draw from the core to get the resulting chem. Examples: The mutation toxins from green extracts.

You can also dilute your plasma by, for example, filling a beaker with 40u of water and 10u of plasma; a syringe will collect exactly one unit of plasma this way. Be mindful of reactions that can use both plasma and water though

Tier 0

Slime	Type	Plasma Reaction	Blood Reaction	Water Reaction
	Grey Slime	Creates a new grey slime.	Creates three monkey cubes. Useful if you want to do your job for more than five minutes.	Fills the extract with Epinephrine.

Tier 1

Slime	Type	Plasma Reaction	Blood Reaction	Water Reaction
	Orange Slime	Creates a small plasma fire after 5 seconds.	Fills the extract with Capsaicin Oil, 10u per 1u blood injected at once, up to 100u. Can be turned into Pepper Spray if mixed with ethanol.	Creates a cloud of smoke. More water injected at once means bigger smoke, up to max 15 water. It'll carry any other reagent already inside the slime extract.
	Purple Slime	Creates a bottle of slime steroid. Slime steroid is a potent chemical mix that will cause a slime to produce one more extract when processed, for a maximum of four extra. The steroid only works on live slimes.	Fills the extract with regenerative jelly. 5u per 1u blood injected, up to 100u. Similar to omnizine, but non toxic to jellypeople.	N/A
	Blue Slime	Fills the extract with frost oil. 10u per 1u plasma injected, up to 100u.	Creates a slime stabilizer potion. Reduces a slime's mutation chance by 15 percentage points, and carries through across generations.	Creates foam when injected with at least 5u water. It'll carry any other reagent already inside the slime extract.
	Metal Slime	Creates 5 sheets of plasteel and 15 sheets of metal. Grinding plasteel will generate plasma and iron, making it a perfect substitute to dark purple slimes.	N/A	Creates 5 sheets of reinforced glass and 15 sheets of glass.

Tier 2

Slime	Type	Plasma Reaction	Blood Reaction	Water Reaction
	Yellow Slime	Creates a 10k self-charging Powercell. Removed in Oct, 2020.	Creates an EMP. It's a quite big blast as well, useful if that AI is onto your tricks.	Causes extract to emit light. They can be squeezed to increase the light emitted.
	Dark Purple Slime	Creates 3 sheets of Solid Plasma. Yessir, NT can link anything to the production of plasma. Also useful for further experimenting.	N/A	N/A
	Dark Blue Slime	Creates supercooled N2 gas 5 seconds after injection.	N/A	Creates a three-use chill potion, which fireproofs anything it's used on. Be a firebug without looking like one! Miners can make good use of this, as it will make them storm-proof.
	Silver Slime	Creates a small amount of random food, bork bork bork. Expect anything from a roburger to death berries.	N/A	Creates a small amount of random drinks.

Tier 3

Slime	Type	Plasma Reaction	Blood Reaction	Water Reaction
	Bluespace Slime	Creates a Bluespace Crystal. They will teleport you when crushed in your hand and teleport anyone you throw it at. Used as a material in techfabs and protolathes.	Creates 25 Bluespace Floor Tiles, which speed up movement drastically.	Creates a Bluespace radio potion. Use it on a sentient animal to let them speak on the radio!
	Sepia Slime	Stops local time for 15 seconds, 5 seconds after injection. The user is not immune.	Creates 25 Sepia Floor Tiles. They slow movement speed above them.	Creates some Film and a Camera.
	Cerulean Slime	Creates a bottle of extract enhancer. When used on an extract it adds one use to it.	Creates a one-use blueprint. Renaming an area with it (to any name) will turn the floor blue and allow the Slime Console to work on that area, if it has a valid path.	N/A
	Pyrite Slime	Creates a can of paint. For the love of all that is holy, don't give it to the clown!	Creates a random crayon.	N/A

Tier 4

Slime	Type	Plasma Reaction	Blood Reaction	Water Reaction	Other Reactions
	Red Slime	Creates a bottle of slime mutation potion. Makes slimes 12 percentage points more likely to mutate, the opposite of the slime stabilizer.	Makes nearby slimes rabid. Has some fun uses. If the affected slimes were docile, it removes the docility instead of making them rabid.	Creates a bottle of speed potion. The speed potion will negate slowdown from any item of clothing or vehicle it is applied to.	N/A
	Green Slime	Fills extract with mutation toxin, 1u per 1u plasma injected. Taking at least 4u will eventually turn you into a random jellyperson. They have several pros and cons, but what is important to xenobiology is that slimes will never attack you and your blood is no longer valid for blood-based reactions, as it is replaced by slime jelly. Taking more mutation toxin when you're already a jellyperson will eventually turn you into another random subspecies.	Fills extract with human mutation toxin, which turns whoever is injected with it into a human. 1u per 1u blood injected.	N/A	Injecting the extract with radium fills it with lizard mutation toxin instead, which will turn whoever is injected with it into a lizardperson. 1u per 1u radium.
	Pink Slime	Creates a bottle of docility potion, which will nullify a slime's hunger, causing it to become docile and tame, and will let you name it. You too can have your own pet, just like the HoP! If the slime is rabid, the potion will remove its rabid rage but will not make it docile.	Extract creates a bottle of gender changing potion, which changes the gender of any living, gendered thing it is used on.	N/A	N/A
	Gold Slime	Spawns five random dangerous hostile mobs.	Spawns three random dangerous mobs. These mobs are not immediately hostile, but may be provoked by certain actions, proximity to other creatures (such as your slimes) or if they encounter a construct or mech. You can also spawn magicarps!	Spawns one random friendly critter. See here for the list of summonable mobs.	N/A

Tier 5

Slime	Type	Plasma Reaction	Blood Reaction	Water Reaction
	Oil Slime	Creates an explosion after a moment.	Fills extract with Corn Oil, about 10u per 1u blood injected.	N/A
	Black Slime	Fills extract with advanced mutation toxin, 1u per 1u plasma injected. Turns you, or others, into a sentient grey baby slime. Beware, slimes are still not harmless. This mutation can be prevented with frost oil, if you are quick enough. Acts instantly on slimepeople.	N/A	N/A
	Light Pink Slime	Creates a bottle of sentience potion, a potent chemical mix that will bring human level intelligence to any animal, slime, monster or generally active thing you feed it to. Make Ian sentient! Create an army of gold slime minions! The possibilities are limited only by your own deviousness and the number of ghosts in the round.	N/A	Creates a renaming potion.
	Adamantine Slime	Creates an adamantine bar. It can be sold at cargo for a high amount of credits, or it can be used inhand to craft a golem shell. Golem shells can then be finished with ten sheets of any material, which will affect the golem's properties. After completion, a ghost can possess the shell to spawn as a golem. It will follow the orders of who finishes the shell above anything else, and inherit conversion antagonist status, such as cult, from their owner.	N/A	N/A

Special Slimes

To attain this rare slime you must breed a slime with a 100% mutation chance!

Slime	Type	Plasma Reaction	Blood Reaction	Other Reactions
	Rainbow Slime	Spawns a random slime when injected with less than five units of plasma. Explodes into randomly-colored slime cores when injected with at least five units of plasma.	Creates a mind transference potion. You can use it to transfer your mind into a creature. This is not reversible and will result in your old body's instant death.	Extract will explode into randomly-colored slime cores with water, plasma, and blood in them when injected with slime jelly. This will trigger their reactions unpredictably and chaotically, and almost certainly cause mayhem wherever it happens. Spawns a flight potion when injected with 5u of Holy water and 5u Uranium.

Luminescent Effects

Luminescent (c) means the ability needs to be channeled to work (aka you need to stand still for a while).

Slime	Type	Minor Effect	Major Effect
	Grey Slime	Spawns a monkey cube into the user's hand.	Spawns a grey baby slime.
	Orange Slime	Infuses the user with capsaicin.	Spawns smoke around the user. The smoke will purge chemicals in the user's body and infuse itself with them.

White Ships

A collection of pilotable ships that can be found by following a GPS signal while exploring Space. Previously each ship would only spawn in the space of its associated station, but now each ship has an equal chance of appearing.

This can be used for good, such as exploration, or for bad, such as a mobile base for certain hostile forces. It can be used as an alternative evacuation point; when the Emergency Shuttle departs, the white ship will fly itself to Central Command, so ending the round in it counts as evacuation.

The ship, once found, can be moved around several fixed points:

• Deep Space
• Station Arrivals Dock
• Lavaland
• Derelict Station
• Custom Location (set with the Navigation Computer)

Quickstart Silicon Guide

Cyborg

You've just been thrown into a borg factory by a malfunctioning AI, or decided to try out a new life as a positronic brain on a whim. Being a cyborg isn't for everybody, but it is vastly different from carbon gameplay.

Laws

The number one rule about interpreting laws is that it should be done in good faith. If you use any new law or lack of law as an excuse to act antagonistically, that's probably not considered good faith.

9 times out of 10 the laws you'll have to follow will be Asimov's three laws of robotics. In general, this means:

1. Don't harm humans
2. Do what humans tell you to do, except for harming humans.
3. Protect yourself as long as you're not disobeying or harming humans in the process.

For a more complete definition of these (and more) laws, see Silicon Policy.

Abilities

All borgs have the ability to control doors and machinery with pretty well limitless access. Silicons cannot purchase or recall the emergency shuttle, however.

All borg types have tools best suited to their type. For a full list of what each type has, see The Latest Models.

If you run out of a material, don't worry! Charging in a cyborg charger will gradually refill your synthesizer. This will also fix your flash if it's burned out.

Weaknesses

All borgs are extremely vulnerable to flashes. They're a hard stun, and one that you're probably not going to recover from if someone's determined to take you out.

The robotics console in the RD's office can lock you down or detonate you remotely.

Controls

On help intent, click and drag someone onto you to carry them.

On harm intent, click and drag someone onto you to open the strip menu.

Click on yourself to unbuckle someone from you.

AI

This is where things get a lot more complicated. When shit hits the fan, you're going to have a lot of things to keep an eye on. Hopefully you have some good borgs to pick up the slack!

Information Overload

The biggest learning curve to being an AI: learning to filter the barrage of information you get.

Alerts

1. Camera alarm: either something exploded or someone doesn't want you seeing what they're up to.
2. Motion alarm: someone or something is moving in a secure area (outside the armory in space, in your satellite, in your upload, in the vault, or in EVA).
3. Atmosphere alarm: the air in that area is unsafe.
4. Fire alarm: either someone's hitting the fire alarm or they station is trying to stop a fire.
5. Power alarm: that area is about to run out of power (AKA, engineering's not doing their job).
6. Burglar alarm: someone's stealing the captain's antique laser gun.

Other Notifications

You will occasionally get other notifications for things such as:

• Cyborgs changing modules
• Losing connection with cyborgs
• pAI hacking doors
• Losing connection to APCs

Abilities

You have the power to control any machine that you can see. This is anything from arcade machines to chem dispensers to security records.

Your Cyborgs

Your greatest allies and also the biggest thorn in your side.

In your status tab, there will be a list of borgs synced to you. This means that they share your laws and have to listen to what you tell them. Here you will see their modules, their locations, and their status. If one of them goes missing suddenly, this means that they've been desynced from you. This can happen from a paranoid roboticist, or an emag.

The Robotics Console

The robotics console in the RD's office can be used to lock down or detonate any borg synced to you. This means that you can't lock down a rogue borg that doesn't belong to you.

Your Bots

Medibots, cleanbots, all of them are at your beck and call!

For all simple bots, you can either access their controls (including emagging them remotely), or choosing a location to send them. Pressing "Call" and then clicking somewhere will cause the bot to attempt to find a path to the clicked location. Useful for sending medibots to an injured human.

Weaknesses

If someone can touch your core, you're basically already dead. The key to staying alive is keeping attackers as far away from you as you can.

If you're not close enough to a powered APC you will eventually run out of power and die. This also applies if you're controlling a shell, so dragging your core into an unpowered area can prove fatal.
