STRENGTHS
- Field Application: In extremely fast-paced, chaotic and unpredictable environments, whether that be one in active combat or some other scenario where a quick getaway is required. The Chiyu Bacta Grenade can get your patients on their feet again after a few moments of quick recovery, especially helpful when carrying them isn't an option, the Chiyu is a temporary but effective solution to what could potentially be an otherwise lethal problem.
- Portable: Though not as small as conventional explosive grenades, the Chiyu can still be carried in large numbers in a backpack, utility belt, or whatever the user may have on their person. Needless to say the same could not be done with a bacta tank while even other medical field equipment could be clumsier and slower than simply using the Chiyu.
WEAKNESSES
- Limited Supply: Due to its small size, the Chiyu Bacta Grenade has only a small supply of bacta within, capable of filling the air surrounding itself with bacta for a few moments at most, enough to begin healing any injuries within its vicinity, it is nevertheless a single-use tool and will run out bacta relatively quickly. Necessitating the use of another Chiyu if there are more injured that were not healed by the first grenade. It is recommended that multiple be brought on any dangerous activities.
"When its life or death every second counts." One of the many NKMedical taglines used in the advertising of the Chiyu, it could certainly be described as an accurate statement for the most part. Able to barely fit into one's pocket, the Chiyu Bacta Grenade is best kept in a backpack, medkit or utility belt and in a high quantity if the user wishes to be prepared. Functioning the same as any ordinary--albeit more lethal grenade would, the Chiyu stores a condensed aerosol-variant of the galaxy-renowned bacta liquid which when the pin is pulled and the grenade thrown will begin to release its contents into the surrounding area, filling the air and covering any nearby organic beings with its healthy goodness. Hyper-condensed in-order to enact as much healing in as short a time as possible, the Chiyu may not be a permanent solution to one's problems, but it can certainly keep your friends walking until they get to a medcenter. Developed by Nakaioma Medical with some technical assistance from the explosives' experts at Nakaioma Defense Dynamics, the Chiyu has since become the subject of much debate over its somewhat inconvenient size compared to its practical health applications of which there are many, as is the nature of bacta itself.
