Subcomb Back up System

Affiliation: Sasori Research, Atrisian Commonwealth
Manufacturer: Sasori Research, Atrisi United
Material: Refined Sleg Ultracapacitors, Sasori Kanamara, Materia, Hypertech Generator

SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Multinodal Substation: The Multinodal Substation is the Subcomb's power core. It is not a single reactor but a specialized, high-density chamber containing a "nest" of miniaturized Kanamara Power Systems. These diverse systems are housed within a materia casing.
    • Exotic Power Siphoning: The system is specifically calibrated to safely interface with and siphon energy from highly complex or unique power sources including those used by ancient technologies or experimental weaponry without internal feedback or overload. It can efficiently convert these diverse inputs into a standardized, usable output for any connected system.
    • Layered Redundancy: The "nest" design ensures that the failure of any single power channel, or even a localized brownout, results in immediate and seamless load transfer across the multiple, simultaneously-active channels. This transfer is sub-millisecond, effectively appearing as no interruption to connected facilities.
  • Legion Protocol: The Legion Protocol is the Subcomb's advanced smart system and operational "mind." It transcends simple failover logic by operating as a continuous, predictive network manager.
    • Predictive Diagnostics: It continuously runs complex quantum-based diagnostics and network simulations to map all possible failure scenarios in real-time, assigning a randomized priority weight to all networked Subcomb units.
    • Adaptive Load Randomization: In a network configuration (e.g., across a city's power grid, a large starship, or a facility complex), the Legion Protocol orchestrates the instant, randomized switching of primary and secondary system loads across the entire network. This constant, unpredictable shuffling of energy flow and control makes a targeted attack nearly impossible to fully disable, as the 'target' system is already functioning in another location.
    • Coordinated Response: Subcomb units function as a distributed network consciousness; if one unit is compromised, the rest of the network instantly isolates the unit, takes over its function, and re-calibrates the network's load balance, making network-wide failures virtually non-existent.
STRENGTHS
  • Self Repairing: The chassis is fabricated from advanced self-repairing materia. Small stress fractures or micro-damage are mended near-instantly. More substantial, localized plasma or kinetic damage can be addressed autonomously by the internal materium flow, requiring anywhere from a few hours for minor damage to several days for significant, localized hull breaches.
  • Calabi-Yau: The Subcomb utilizes the advanced mathematical principles of Calabi-Yau manifolds to fold and arrange its complex components within the space of the manifolds rooms. This non-Euclidean configuration allows seemingly disparate parts such as power cells, processors to occupy a shared volumetric space without physical interference. This results in an unprecedentedly compact design that can be discreetly integrated into any existing structure.
  • Overly Engineered: The system is designed not just for a backup role, but as a dynamic, autonomous system manager. The combination of the Multinodal Substation's power diversity and the Legion Protocol's unpredictable load-switching ensures that the Subcomb system can withstand simultaneous, multi-vector attacks that would cripple conventional infrastructure.
WEAKNESSES
  • Self repairing: While powerful, the self-repair function is a gradual, chemical-mechanical process. The repair time scales proportionally with the damage; large-scale structural damage or deep system penetration will render the affected Subcomb unit non-functional until the material can fully reconstitute, which can take several standard days.
  • Exotic Particles: The core Calabi-Yau manifold and power systems rely on the manipulation of newly researched exotic particles for their energy absorption and compact design. These particles are largely unknown to conventional galactic science. Crucially, they exhibit a violent, highly unstable reaction when subjected to sustained, concentrated dark matter or anti-matter energy signatures. Exposure can rapidly disrupt the manifold's dimensional stability, leading to catastrophic power ruptures and the Subcomb's complete disintegration.
  • Paired: The Calabi-Yau principle relies on creating a stable, even-dimensional manifold (e.g., 4th or 6th-dimensional space projection). This requires absolute precision in calibration and tuning during installation. Even minor discrepancies in alignment can lead to energy leaks, system instability, or critical pairing failures, making initial setup a highly specialized and expensive process.
DESCRIPTION
In the wake of a devastating infrastructure attack on the Commonwealth, the brilliant systems architect Miyoung was tasked with a singular, near-impossible goal: to create an unprecedented standard of resilience for critical infrastructure. Funded by the visionary patrons Junko and Shoma, Miyoung delved into a unique synthesis of cutting-edge physics, Atrisian mysticism, and galactic mythology. The result is the Aegis Calabi-Yau Substation. The Aegis Calabi-Yau Substation, colloquially known as a Subcomb, is a revolutionary piece of critical infrastructure designed for unparalleled resilience and power regulation. It is a highly-compact, decentralized power and systems manifold engineered to transform conventional infrastructure into a self-sustaining, adaptive network. It is not merely a generator with redundancies; it is a system that exists in a state of layered, multidimensional redundancy. The Subcomb represents a bold step toward achieving for planetary and stellar defense what the Commonwealth has already accomplished in post-scarcity economics an infrastructure that is not only powerful but virtually indelible. Its small footprint, vast power-handling capabilities, and Legion Protocol make it the premier choice for protecting military complexes, planetary defense shields, and core government facilities against the next generation of targeted warfare.
