Seated in a carefully shielded and padded implant that makes the owner’s brainstem near indestructible lies the technological marvel that is a microcomputer with the processing power to handle constant monitoring and recording of the brain state and the storage capacity to maintain a complete backup of their entire personality and all of their memories. An incredibly complex neural implant in the base of the neck and the brainstem that has been commonly implanted in citizens of the [[Starlit Court]] for generations, the Sheath is the pinnacle of Starlit technology allowing for near instant, direct mental interaction with a range of interfaces.
 
Said to be named for the fact that it is seemingly the seat of the soul which many a knight has described as their greatest weapon, being that which gives them drive and strength. It is the Sheath that holds this weapon in safety so that it may be retrieved and returned to its rightful place in the [[Starlit_Path#Unseelie/Winter_Court_and_Avalon|Unseelie Court]], among the mists that shroud the sacred Isle of Avalon!.

Initially the Sheath was designed as a direct interface to connect pilots with their mechs, allowing them more accurate control and faster reaction times. Integrating connections to the deepest parts of the knight’s brain with the main computer on board their mechs allowed them to bypass the delays in the nervous system. The first knights equipped with the early Sheathes out competed their equally trained brothers on the battlefield by orders of magnitude.
