Description

After centuries spent studying the effects of living in space, countless scholars have definitively proven that living in microgravity can cause degradation in muscle mass and bone density in creatures who evolved in environments with gravity, and that a physical fitness regimen is the easiest way to avoid muscle atrophy.
A portable treadmill is a 5-foot square of track within a polymer housing, containing a computer that connects to a user’s comm unit, from which it can be controlled with an app. The treadmill can be secured to almost any surface. For every 5 minutes you spend running on the treadmill without interruption, you gain a circumstance bonus to Fortitude saves for 1 hour, up to a maximum of 12 hours. This bonus is +1 and increases to +2 at 10th level. Alternatively, you can rig a portable treadmill as trap as a full action. The next creature who enters the treadmill’s square must attempt a Reflex save (DC = 11 + your ranks in Engineering) or fall prone. A portable treadmill can be used continuously without expending charges if it is plugged into a starship or power grid.
