Gadgetry

Laid out in the manner of the Magic Specializations, Gadgetry is the training and clearance to be issued with special equipment. Humans use it to compete with witches and improve their field effectiveness themselves, but witches can be issued with gadgets as well, if they need it, and gadgets can be shared with Alphazon, Lunabella or Arcadia. Hespatians and Watchers and most independents would have to steal Gadgets if they want to make use of this 'specialization'. With Rank 0, any agent can request a utility belt tailored to your needs containing any mundane item and an Omnicom; A ghost-band radio for private communications with ORC headquarters and can link with traditional communication networks, from anywhere in the multiverse that isn't cut off and disrupted by abnormal means, intentional or natural. Omnicoms by nature route through the ORC, so it's not useful if you want to hide from them, such as Hespatian thieves who've acquired one. Other common belt items include a 9mm or .45, notepad, pencil, or PDA / secured smartphone, utility knife, dog tags.

RANK 1

Basic Military upgrade: You can requisition low rank military gear. Weapons with full auto, grenades, c4, full MREs, flashbangs. Grappling Hook: Like a handheld pistol with an extra grip, fires a mythril wire up to 350ft long with a head that splits into 4 separate threads that spread out to fuse to multiple anchor points, and can then pull you along accelerating up to 60mph then slowing down. Can be reloaded with cartridges, disconnecting the previous which starts to disintegrate in 10 minutes. Can fuse to itself for strong bindings.

RANK 2

Sealing Chalk: This apparent stick of chalk can be used to seal and reinforce doorways. Tracing it along the cracks of a door will cause a metal foam to expand to fill the crack creating a seal. The flat side can be used with broad strokes on the surface itself to reinforce it with a full metal backing, or simple cross braces. This metal disintegrates in 4 hours. Universal License: This flip open slim leather pocketbook opens up to show any observer the manner of credentials that they'd expect to see in an acceptable form. Glimmerweave: This simple little cannister with a button commands smartfibers that can in seconds deconstruct and reconstruct itself into any configuration of mundane clothing or costume you wish. Looks like fine silver hairs before settling into a color and texture.

RANK 3

Antithaumetic Tone Generator: A small die sized cube that expands when activated to produce a shrill sound heard only by beings with magical abilities. It induces instant migrains, disorientation, and prevents the activation of magic, dispelling active effects, within 60ft. Lasts 30 seconds and they're expensive to produce; Can only requisition 2 at a time. Pocket Flamer: Small micro flamethrower; 90ft streams. Up to 33 seconds of flame generation per golf ball sized cannister. Typically has a line to a wrist mounted nozzle. Optional napalm. Automaton Spider: A quarter-sized clockwork spider. 12ft reusable grappling line, wall climbing, remote control / camera.
Automaton Hummingbird: A clockwork hummingbird with remote controls and cameras. comes in other bird forms, but HB models are agile.

RANK 4

Special Explosives: Requisition special explosives ranging from grenades the size of a pea to ping pong ball sized spidermines, up to c4 effectiveness, micromissiles, smoke grenades creating whole fog banks with or without tear/mustard/sleep gas. Tesla Arms: Pistols or rifles with high energy storage delevering bolts of electricity at chosen intensity from a taser to a lightning bolt.
xORC-09 Powered Armor: Thick plate armor with an internal exoskeleton and a bit of golemancy. ORC Armor is a full enclosure that can endure tank rounds without budging, a pulse of electricity flaring as it translates some kinetic energy into an electrical current to charge Tesla Arms and crackle off any more than it can handle at once or store, which also allows ORC Armored squads to jump from any height with minimal stress or cratering. Literal stormtroopers. Heavy warding prevents direct targeting by magic effects and obscures target locks. Internal life support can stop bleeding, inject stimulants, adrenaline, and oxygen. Smart fibers can deliver sealing chalk to any leaks. Powered opens up at the back for entry and does make movements more stiff and rigid and while comfortable, can be claustrophobic. About 470lbs.

RANK 5

Memetic Censor: This cigar sized device emits a flash that within a fraction of a second produces billions of patterns and colors that confound the mind, opening it up for the implantation of ideas that settle deep within their psyche like a nervous tick, or remove ideas and access memory for the alteration or suppression of events via vocal cues delivered within a short window after exposure. Relies on arcane aspects, but the produced effect is natural, allowing it to affect witches that think warding alone will help. Though sunglasses do ruin the effect. Red Telephone: Authorization to deliver a sentence to a city sized area for judgement in extreme circumstance to issue a Quarantine order, a Purge order, or an Exterminate order, condeming an area to a full military grade lockdown, and with Purge then stormed by death squads for designated targets, or for a nuclear strike. Naturally, this is authorization not just a gadget, so it's only effective for high ranking trusted ORC agents. Others might use this channel to relay an emergency distress and formal request for consideration. If abused or used without proper cause, you can be subject to heavy penalties up to and including capital punishment.
The Librarians: The ORC has collected a large array of anomalous artifacts over its lifetime, a select number of them are safe enough that an agent of your caliber could be vetted for approval to be issued with a Golden Relic for further field testing and study. Select a Golden Relic from the Value of Life CYOA (Imgur: xoKqyeL, or check comments).

Alphazon

Integration

Integrated Magitech, Alphazon's ace in the hole. Cybernetics may not have happened for another 50 years, but with a multifaceted approach to studying magic phenominon with ridiculous resources brought to bear, Alphazon has in secret advanced the effective technology level by a century or two, internally, in specific areas where they had certain breakthroughs where research and application realy took off. Integration is close to home kept internal and shared only with affiliates and begrudging crossover with ORC agents. It isn't practical to steal the way Gadgetry can be acquired. To begin with at rank 0, Alphazon agents and high level employees recieve an; Observer implant system that connects to your nervous system at the brain stem with a direct uplink with their own inhouse approach to the ORC's "ghost frequency", private direct channels using a microgate to Alphazon servers with 25Exabyte transfer speeds. A miniscule necrocharm anchors your soul itself through the microgate to a bound object, a private server storing your information the size of a vase hosting a complete ego backup. Every sensation you experience, sight you see, and thought you have. If you die, this backup can be used to restore your life, if the company deems it necessary, more likely if your body can be recovered and recussitated. In some cases these servers are spun up into digital environments, for "Hard Vacation" or for debriefing, reports, operating remote processes like office work or even being used similar to an AI or digital companion. Many "Operators" managing agents are digital in this manner. Integration cannot be taken without an Observer unless working for the ORC and Alphazon is playing nice. You also cannot exceed rank 3 if not trustworthy. Observers also allow internet connectivity like HexVPN, but a separate ghostnet, an Observer can't see HexVPN users and vice versa.

RANK 1

Chipped: Any financial card you have can be condenced into a little chip in your hand for use with contactless scanners as applicable. Also contains your ID. Basic Prosthetics: Recieve artificial replacements for any organ or limb that performs equivalent to a peak human counterpart, with or without a skinmesh over it making it indistiguishable. Bad eyes? Swap'em out! You are licensed to use Alphazon Virtual Reality chambers for leisure and certain digital tasks. Non-digital Operators manage agents from within VR Pods.

RANK 2

Chipped II Plus: Your chip is upgraded with sophisticated hacking programs that can break into any wireless device and relay information to a display of your choosing. Tooltips: One or more of your fingers are replaced with dynamic tool impliments for physical lockpicking, anything a swiss army knife could do, and adaptable USB connections, and laser microcutters for smooth cuts into thin metals like the casing on a device, or glass. Can make a physical connection to a device not vulnerable to wireless interreference for Chipped+.

RANK 3

Skinsuit: You can replace your skin with a synthetic counterpart that can easily be replaced, that can change colors and textures while subsurface smartfoam can change apparent bone and muscle structure. Hair can be shed and new hair can be extruded with a desired color, to a desired length. Sub-Dermal Armor: Thin magitech armor plating inserted beneath the skin strong enough to deflect small arms fire. Kinetic dispersal negates blunt force and shockwaves to a similar extent.
Chipped III Premium: Your chip now uplinks with your Observer for user experience improvements and some internal optics allow for information to be projected directly into your mind to overlay data in your field of view to show you information in real time, such as facial recognition, names, and anything you could find in a google search automatically filtered with your intentions and what is algorithmically predicted to be relevant.

RANK 4

Advanced Proesthetics: Specialized prosthetics made of sturdier material with titanium alloys, and each limb can host a special augmentation: Hidden Blades, Cryolaser, Pulse Laser, Rocket Launcher (3 shots), 4 smartbombs (2x Grenade effectiveness as dynamic choice of napalm, cryo, emp, or fragmentation). Synthetic muscles are 4x as strong as organics with the same appearance, but you could also go for gorilla arms if you choose, to be 4x gorilla strength instead, for example. Prosthetic eyes are upgraded with optical zoom like a powerful telescope, down to a precision microscope (and eye stabilization), nightvision, thermal, microwave, x-ray, UV. Artificial organs that more effectively filter toxin, ect.

RANK 5

Nanofabrication: Small hive factories within you produce a swarm of what are in effect nanomachines. They can break apart matter like a strong acid in an area of 2 cubic feet, which can double every second up to a total controlled mass of 120ft that can arrange itself into various constructs. They can repair objects such as your prosthetics, and restock expent munitions, and directly search and destroy microbes. Chipped IV Revengeance: Your nanites can craft fully synthetic bodies for you, including a new Observer that you can remote link to. You can read the thoughts of others with Observers.
