Maintenance
Consumed continuously to keep the facility running. Starve it and it degrades.
SuppliedDimensional micro-fractures pulse with steady energy flow, the containment matrices holding firm. Station power reads as infinite and eerie.
StarvedWhen it's stable. Right now, containment matrices flicker dangerously, energy flow sputtering as micro-fractures threaten to collapse or expand uncontrolled.
Upgrade Chain
Null Energy Tap has no upgrade path — it is built once, at this level.
Lore
The Voidborn discovered that the space between realities seethes with energy. This device siphons it through controlled dimensional micro-fractures, requiring no fuel — only periodic recalibration of its containment matrices via fresh circuit boards.
