Can you use the chameleon modification without buying the dermal sheath rating for armor? I only want the chameleon effect, not the armor rating. It seems like you can, because only the rating 3 dermal sheath covers your whole body, but chameleon modification always offers the same effect, implying that it covers the whole body, regardless of the rest of the sheath.
-
A Rating 3 dermal sheath may also be further modified by adding an expert sensor suite that scans and replicates the surroundings to function similar to a chameleon suit
I think that'd be a no ...
If you wanted the non-chameleon ruthenium on your non-full body dermal sheath, that'd probably work out.
-
I think the point is that the chameleon coating is a procedure that can be done because you have the dermal sheating, OP. Without it it would, presumably, be too painful, or your body couldn't support it, etc
-
Now, the question becomes... how normal could you look with the package in place?
-
Visually? It's a flexible video screen bonded to your skin, capable of rendering you almost invisible by recreating surrounding scenery, & updated in read time ... I don't think you get much more realistic than that.
Texture? That one probably depends / varies a bit more.

Exactly my point. Personally, my general rule of thumb is: When In Doubt, Sort By Grade.
By that, I mean "fluff" considerations (like Dermal Sheath being able to blend in) tilt in the user's favor as Grade increases, with Deltaware being nearly, but not quite, perfect.
