Cryo is a cocktail of potent paralytics, analgesics, and sedatives used to dramatically lower a subjects metabolic rate. When infused using a rapid infuser (see Biotech Gear, p. 22, B&B) the drug induces a state of suspended animation in a fashion similar to slab (p. 76, Arsenal). This dramatically slows the accumulation of Progressive and Overflow Damage, allowing more time for Stabilization and treatment of wounds. Unlike slab, however, cryo has its effects rapidly reversed when the infusion is stopped. Character’s receiving a cryo infusion accumulate an additional box of Progressive or Overflow Damage every (Body x 4) Combat Turns. A single dose of cryo lasts approximately 30 minutes, but the duration is shorter for larger metahumans. During the infusion, the subject is incapacitated and cannot take any actions. Upon stopping the infusion, the character regains consciousness after (Body) combat turns. Thereafter he suffers a –4 dice pool modifier to all tests, which is decreased by 1 every (Body) Combat Turns until reduced to 0.
