This Storyline has the following additional prerequisites:
- merc with de-activated deltaware background and loyalty 60%+
The following jobs may be part of this Storyline:
- Circuitry Goodbye (re-activate de-activated implant)
- Re-activate de-activated implant
Any merc with a de-activated deltaware implant in their back story can initiate this storyline. The deltaware implant is one of several background options; if you selected it, then this storyline can advance after the merc reaches loyalty 60%.
This storyline has a single two stage mission. The first stage requires looting three fragments of a nano-serum recipe. This is a standard loot mission, except that you must retrieve all three fragments or the mission will fail. The second stage is similar to a Q-Gap Spike mission; it takes place on the biolab map (same map as Null Deal starting map) and requires a hacker/wireghost to spike the CPU from a terminal on the center platform. This triggers an activation blueprint which the doctor contact can use to activate the implant.
After you complete the mission, the merc is on the injured roster for one week, and then their deltaware implant is activated. Currently (April 2026) these are the mercs who have this back story option:
- Escaped Experiment The activated deltaware is: Redline Adrenal (chest slot). When taking damage, immediately heal 125 HP of damage and gain +3 Initiative and +10% Move Speed until end of next Turn. Each Healing cancels Bleeding Out. Activates twice per mission.
