SPECIAL FEATURES
Designed by Miyoung of the Commonwealth and funded by Junko and Shoma. The young and brilliant mind was in charge of their more advanced forms of study and looked towards a combination of science, mystical aspects like the force and most importantly mythology not just from Atrisia's past but also from a number of other areas of the galaxy. The Iron Vine system represents a fusion of biological inspiration and mechanical precision. Observing how certain Atrisian flora could strangle fortifications over centuries, Miyoung engineered a rapid-deployment counterpart. The Iron Vine Geomorphic Denial System is a strategic area-denial weapon that fuses bio-mimicry with advanced material science. It rapidly deploys a network of carbon-nanotube reinforced, self-repairing vines capable of growing and actively seeking out enemy threats. Functioning as a living, intelligent barrier, the Iron Vine system is designed to entangle vehicles, impede infantry, and create permanent, self-sustaining obstacles on the battlefield.

SPECIAL FEATURES
- Seeking Growth Algorithm: The SGA is the targeting and expansion AIembedded within each vine's growth node.
- Multi-Spectrum Sensing: The vines are not static; they use a sophisticated combination of sub-seismic, thermal, and acoustic sensors along their length to detect enemy movement, engine vibration, and energy signatures.
- Active Threat Engagement: The SGA directs the vine's growth, causing it to rapidly extend towards these detected threats. This active seeking behavior ensures the vines prioritize and ensnare high-priority targets such as heavy artillery, troop transports, or walking vehicles like AT-ATs and AT-STs.
- Structural Reinforcement: The SGA can also detect stress points and structural weaknesses in nearby friendly fortifications, directing vines to grow into these areas to provide active, flexible reinforcement against kinetic stress.
- Legion Protocol (Symbiotic Network): This is the strategic, interconnected AI that manages the entire network of deployed Iron Vine emitters.
- Coordinated Entanglement: Multiple emitters coordinate to create a unified, intelligent web. The protocol directs simultaneous growth to isolate and strangle high-value targets by maximizing points of contact and constrictive force.
- Load Balancing and Nutrient Transfer: The Legion Protocol actively monitors the structural integrity and nutrient levels of all vines. It can transfer structural integrity and nutrient matter from less-threatened vines to those under heavy strain (e.g., being actively cut or burned), effectively shoring up breached areas and extending the life of critical defensive segments.
- Calabi-Yau Manifold Core (CYMC): The CYMCis the miniaturized power and fabrication hub contained within each deployment canister.
- Hyper-Compact Design: The manifold's even-dimensional folding allows the seed canisters, the nutrient synthesizers, and the Kanamara power regulator to be contained in a lightweight unit the size of a grenade. This enables a single soldier to carry enough canisters to establish a complete vine network covering a city block or a major intersection.
- Rapid Fabrication: The core's high-efficiency power allows for the instantaneous synthesis of the specialized growth accelerant and the carbon-nanotube filaments required for the vines' structural integrity upon deployment.
- Self Repairing: The synthetic vines are reinforced with high-tensile carbon-nanotubes and woven with programmable materia. This allows the vines to autonomously mend breaks, cuts, and micro-stress fractures within minutes, and repair major structural damage or massive material loss over the course of days.
- Calabi-Yau Manifold Core: The compact size and high yield of the canisters provide unprecedented tactical volume, allowing a small squad to quickly barricade a massive area against mechanized assault.
- Overly Engineered: The system is designed for permanent operational deployment. Once established, the Iron Vines use powerful soil-draw mechanisms and molecular extractors to pull necessary minerals and trace moisture from the environment, allowing them to sustain themselves almost indefinitely without external resupply.
- Gravitic Anchoring: Once the vine sprouts and sets its root node, a localized micro-gravitic anchor is deployed, locking the root to the ground. This makes the entire network immune to simple uprooting, vehicle traction, or high wind/shockwave forces.
- Dimensional Pairing Instability: The Calabi-Yau Manifold Core requires absolute precision in calibration. A miscalibrated growth emitter can lead to two critical failure modes:
- Brittle Vines: The resulting synthetic material lacks the required density, producing brittle, useless vines easily cut by even low-power blasters.
- Aggressively Invasive Non-Discrimination: In a worst-case scenario, a critical failure can cause the growth algorithm to malfunction, producing highly invasive vines that become non-discriminatory, actively threatening friendly forces, essential infrastructure, and even the core deployment emitters.
- Exotic Particle Volatility: The core physics of the CYMC relies on specialized exotic particles. These particles are highly volatile and react violently near concentrated fields of dark matter or anti-matter signatures, risking catastrophic system failure and disintegration.
- Self-Repair Time: While resilient, if a vine is subjected to sustained, high-power focused energy (like thermal cutters or starfighter lasers), the damage can outpace the repair capability, leading to the temporary loss of that segment for several days while the materia reconstitutes.
- Environmental Limitations: While drawing minerals from the soil, the system performs poorly in environments where the ground is completely impenetrable (e.g., deep beskar, wintrium plating) or where the environment is too toxic to sustain even the synthetic material for the initial growth phase.
