The depths of Myrridal's atmosphere are not merely dark—they are alive with Rift-touched currents that defy conventional sight. Young Barathu, fresh-divided and unmerged, must adapt or perish in the crushing depths where Rift-bleed twists light into lies. Those who survive develop Darkvision.
This Barathu ancestry feat grants essential vision adaptation tailored for the void’s light-starved environments, providing both mechanical benefit and narrative hooks for Frontier survival and Bio-Commune operations.

Adventure Hooks
The Blind Leading the Blind: A Khi-Myr Bio-Commune expedition to integrate a Rift-shadowed Outer Sphere colony has gone silent. As the only Barathu with Rift-Sight available, you must navigate the colony's perpetual darkness to discover why the Commune's emissaries have vanished—only to find they've adapted too well and now see the collective as "blinding light".
Myrridal's Deepest Secret: The deepest layers of Myrridal, where even Barathu fear to drift, have begun emitting structured Rift-patterns. Your Rift-Sight reveals these are not natural phenomena but artificial constructs—ancient machines predating Barathu evolution. The Bio-Commune demands you investigate, but each dive risks Rift-taint that could sever you from the collective forever.
Stolen Sight: A Chronologist Guild research team has "acquired" Barathu genetic material and is forcibly injecting it into Navigator recruits to create "Rift-augments." The procedure is unreliable and lethal. Barathu PCs must decide: rescue the victims, destroy the research, or steal the data to ensure the Bio-Commune controls this technology rather than the Commission.
