houdini implant:
cost could be either really expensive or really cheap but trying to use a cloak with it causes it to explode in your face. the important bit is no fucking cloak with this thing
an implant that gives you three powers. The first one replaces your sprite with a featureless black one and makes you impossible to examine along with setting your name to whatever you want and making you untrackable to the AI. It can be toggled on and off at will. The second one releases a cloud of harmless but vision-obscuring smoke(alternatively it would also contain all of the reagents that are in your body, which I think would be funny but potentially overpowered) on a pretty short cooldown. The third one lets you teleport but only if nobody can see you and nobody can see where you are teleporting to. This could either work by just letting you teleport wherever you want on a really long cooldown or setting a couple of points that you can snap back to on a short cooldown. Either is fine, the idea is that it's a tool used to escape rather than offensively.
the idea behind this is that i think it would be funny for security to round a bend and see the mysterious man they've been chasing is gone while he steps out of a closet halfway across the station and his lab partner starts to wonder why exactly he's been spending 10 minutes "filling his oxygen tank". like you could switch between clark kent, mild-mannered barman and mixologist and El Lucha Grande, mysterious masked wrestler who strikes without warning and vanishes just as quickly without the chef realizing it and that is hilarious to me.
