Equipment Bond

1 point

You own a piece of equipment (e.g., sensor or vehicle) or a
kit (tool, medical, etc.) that’s uniquely suited to you. You must
acquire it with cash or as Signature Gear. When you use it, you
get +1 to the skill associated with that equipment, regardless of
the gear’s actual quality. This is cumulative with any bonus
inherent to the hardware.
This perk reflects the fact that you’re used to your stuff; in
the case of a kit, you might even have assembled the contents.
If you lose that particular item, you lose the perk. You can
acquire a new Equipment Bond in play, however.
