Object
Borg Medical Table (with Bio-Chip Implant Device)
Stark metal platform in the Borg ship's operating chamber that secures Locutus during his final assimilation. Drones strap him down tightly, holding him conscious as they implant a bio-chip into his body using a long, probing implant device (integrated with the table) and graft a mechanical arm onto his frame. He resists with futile physical struggles, overpowered by their cold efficiency, while a single tear traces his cheek before his face turns ashen. The table serves as the primary surgical platform for Locutus' full assimilation, including bio-chip implantation and cybernetic augmentation.
