PsylinkNeuroformer


The Psylink neuroformer gives a pawn that's been implanted with it a Psycast level.

Acquisition

By gaining Honor with the Empire faction, one may call a Bestower to the colony to provide a Psylink to a pawn after it ranks up in titles. Alternatively, you may steal the Psylink neuroformer themselves from the Bestower, making your colony an enemy of the Empire.

Psylink neuroformers can also be found as occasional quest rewards. A new quest should appear roughly every 40 days, if no psylink levels have been gained[1]. They can not be acquired through trade (except trade quests) or surgery as they could in past versions.

Summary

When used, a psylink neuroformer gives 1 level of psylink to the pawn. This turns a pawn into a psycaster if they weren't already. This increases the neural heat capacity, neural heat regeneration rate, and the level of psycasts available. Upon gaining a new level of psylink, a random psycast will be granted.

Analysis

The empire only gives psylink levels to the level "owed" - e.g. if you already have a level 2 psylink, becoming an Acolyte will not increase psylink any further. If you plan on raising a pawn up the royal ranks, you may want to use any spare neuroformers on a different pawn.
