Hover Technology

Utilizing a number of combined principles, but functioning primarily upon the principles of electrostatic levitation and lateral thrust, hover technology was founded an unknown time before the Blackout, but has remained a staple of locomotion throughout Federation space since.
Those who have wound up under the projectors of the electrostatic field have reported a severely unpleasant, but overall harmless experience, often described as "feeling like you're on fire" as their nerves are assaulted by electrostatic shock. Short of augments becoming electrocuted or damaged by the static, though, the person in question should come out alive, though they will be left with the sensation of 'pins and needles' all throughout their body.
