AnswerText:	Re: <b>Katalyth Handling.</b> The Augmented will still be the most equipped to handle getting close to it, but indeed, in the past Patho-Gen has often advised characters to simply <i>note</i> the location of outcroppings, rather than make any direct contact with it. In these dangerous circumstances, they have to resort to giving characters their own methods.<br><br>(This probably would have been wise to include in the body of the text; I think I may well put a succinct version of this answer as a highlighted <b>EDIT</b> in the post itself, since I think many may have this question.)<br><br>This circles back around to this: <i>How has Patho-Gen been handling Katalyth, if it's so dangerous?</i> They will provide the Augmented with as much PPE as they can. Thick suits or gloves; long metal foreceps, so as to keep as much distance between themselves and the Katalyth. Chisels, welder's masks, vests that have the same feeling as those radiation shields used during X-rays.<br><br>If characters wonder if this is remotely <i>enough</i> to protect the average human from even average Katalyth outcroppings... it wouldn't be remiss to question it. Patho-Gen staff who provide such PPE have scarcely ever had to use it themselves, and for those who have, their contact with Katalyth has ever been fleeting and limited. <b>Too much time around it is dangerous.</b> Strangely, nobody who can be spoken to has ever been tasked with physically going out into the environment to deal with it.<br><br>Re: <b>the experiment room and photography/recordings</b>. It works similarly to Kelesis! That is to say, recording and photos <i>work</i> with a level of glitchiness to it. Some noise here, something that wasn't originally there in the background over there, a couple silly artifacts but nothing groundbreaking. Momo may absolutely document his Cnidaria-type-sona.
