Forum:SIVA Subclasses

Forums: Index → Fan Fiction → SIVA Subclasses

The ~protocol.SUNRAY strain of SIVA was an experimental line of combat stimulating Nanobots developed by Clovis Bray during the Golden Age. Once developed as a means to enhance military tactics and combat efficiency, after countless failures to contain the nanomachines itself, the project would be canceled following a catastrophic accident at a Clovis Bray research site. Years later, however, with the help of the ancient sub-mind, Odoacer, Guardians would begin to control and wield the SIVA powers for themselves, while also resisting the corrupting effects of the powers themselves. It is the first in a line of Neutral Subclasses, neither Light or Darkness based abilities.
