Personal Environmental Suit

Description: While the gnomish submarine and the iron fish allow for safe underwater movement, the personal environmental suit is more suited for the stealthy adventurer who wishes to approach and board enemy ships without notice. Operation: The full-body suit contains a tank with 30 minutes of compressed air for the user to breathe. The user wears this tank horizontally across her shoulders, which connects to a helmet that makes a watertight seal with the suit. Below that is a powerful motor designed to move her through the water faster than she could normally swim, allowing her to catch up with many ships. She can control the angle of the motor to allow her to move more easily within the water. The belt that comes with the suit contains a grappling hook for boarding. The synthetic material that makes up the suit itself is also quite heat-resistant, providing fire resistance 5. However, if the tank on the back of the suit contains compressed air, a single point of fire damage (that penetrates its resistance) causes it to explode, dealing 2d6 points of damage to the wearer. It takes 10 rounds and a DC 15 Use Technological Device check to put on or take off a personal environmental suit. Piloting the device also requires DC 15 Use Technological Device checks. Fuel: The personal environmental suit consumes 1 vial of phlogiston every 4 hours. Replacing the compressed air is free (the device includes an air compressor), but requires a DC 20 Use Technological Device check.
