====== Micro Mechs ======

Micro mechs are remotely operated robots used in medical procedures. They range in size from smaller than a blood cell to the size of a grain of rice or a small pill. They're designed to enter the patient's body and aid in surgeries that would otherwise require invasive incisions. They're most widely used for endoscopy and removal of small tumors, calculi, and foreign bodies.



The healer operates the micro mech remotely while perching. Movement and manipulation is controlled by paw gauntlets and a tail sheath. Video, audio, olfactory, and tactile output (via the whiskers) are relayed from the mech to a helmet that covers the healer's head.



Micro mechs also make great spying tools, since they allow the operator to be a literal fly on the wall.
