Swarm, a rare Glitch lot

Swarm is one named Glitch formulation, not a product of its own: in the game's terms it is Glitch, variant Swarm, with a source, a lot and known effects. It comes from a single small source that makes it with engineered particles, slowly and in small lots, so there is little of it and it cannot turn up wherever a story wants it. Its recorded behaviour is narrow: it can upset a compatible implant (a stutter, a lost setting, a sensation the chip should not report) or produce one odd bodily effect. It grants no powers and does not rewrite every chip. If the source is lost, the supply stops, and that matters to anyone who has come to depend on it. On the street people just call it Swarm. The general nano-vape detail of Hush does not make every product nanotech.
