World of the Amazing Universe: Liquid Interfacing Nanite Composite and Plasma Metal (Super-Powered by M&M)
 |
As technology has advanced at an explosive¸ unprecedented pace¸ materials science has struggled to keep pace. Equipment and devices for military¸ law enforcement¸ and industrial purposes depend on rugged¸ durable components able to withstand extremes of temperature¸ pressure¸ and other stresses. This has proven especially true for equipment used by or against super-powered individuals.
One of the greatest advances in materials science involves the use of nanite composites. The first of these and still the gold standard goes by the name of "liquid interfacing nanite composite¸” otherwise known as LINC. In its inert¸ unprogrammed state¸ LINC remains in a viscous liquid form similar to that of mercury. Once programmed and exposed to a specific electrical current¸ a quantity of LINC assumes its desired shape¸ form¸ and function in one-one-thousandths of a second.
In most cases when a person acquires special powers¸ whether through mutation¸ happenstance¸ or by other means¸ they face a decision as to how to use those powers. Some choose to use their powers to help others and benefit society. Some choose to ignore their powers or deny their existence. Many people try to use their powers to improve their lives and to provide for themselves and their families. A small percentage¸ however¸ apply their powers to commit crimes or settle old scores.
This inevitable fact requires communities and governments to find new ways to protect their citizens and deal with super-powered criminals. While such efforts often depend on the help of heroes with powers of their own¸ many municipalities have no such defenders to call upon. For such circumstances¸ communities need people with powers to protect ordinary citizens and property.
