The Synergistically Industrious Combine is a hive mind comprised of five jade caste alchemical exalted, joined together into a single consciousness. Combine started as experiment in creating alchemicals, intent on proving that a collective being with many bodies but one mind was a more effective, flexible and efficient use of resources than cultivating municipal sized alchemicals.
History
Component Alchemicals
Combine is composed of five different alchemical bodies, all constructed with a unique connection into a greater whole. This is built into the center of their being, and cannot be removed or replaced. The five work as independent exalts, with the following exceptions:
- They gain the benefit of Perfection of Assembly without needing to install it. This works only with each other and cannot be changed. This allows them to know each others status and location as well as share thoughts.
- Each member of the group can pay 5 motes to harmonize on an extended action, similarly to the Optimized Component Integration Protocol, each gaining a die on action rolls for each other participant.
- Each gains the ability to reflexively transfer motes from his peripheral pool into a peripheral pool of another part of the Combine (within 50 yards). This cannot increase the maximum size of the target pool, and has a visible effect, like lightning shooting from one to another.
