Vumans get a feat, which is arguably one of the strongest abilities. Base humans are notoriously weak though.

I’ve heard “because I like the sound of dice hitting the table.”

This is how most supermarkets (Walmart/Kroger/Target, etc.) in the U.S. look brand new - they’re effectively warehouses that sell product directly to customers. Smaller shops and boutiques have finished ceilings that hide the ductwork and such because they’re meant to be more flexible commercial/office space, but large stores like this do not, except for specialized locations like electronics, jewelery, or pharmacy, that can be gated off from the rest of the inside of the building for reduced operation and security.

That eagle’s seen some shit.

A whole shoebox? Luxury. My 27 brothers and I lived in a bit of rolled up newspaper on the street.
