Tiny silk strands poke out from the suit looking like an almost imperceptible haze a few millimeters around the wearer's body. These help the suit to enhance movement, doing such things as gripping surfaces, increasing surface tension, and creating an air 'bubble' just thick enough to slide easily through fluids.
Inspired by orb weavers, octopi, and water spiders, this gift allows the suit's wearer to move as easily as these creatures.
You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact.
