Spiral Knights Research has discovered a new way to use heat! They have provided us with a new slot in our Character UI to bring powerful new items into battle! They've discovered In-Game Heat Powerups. They can be used in many ways in battle, but too deadly for King Krogmo's Colosseum. We don't want to injure our own TOO much, do we?

What I mean by heat powerups is that when you're in the clockworks, you can buy powerups with the heat you find. You can chose a module to put in your Heat Powerup slot before delving into the clockworks. If you have others with you, you will not be targeted unless said otherwise. These MAY NOT be used on boss floors. Powerups do not acquire heat and work similarly to trinkets, instantly able to be upgraded. Every additional star level the module gets, it will cost 5 heat cheaper. ALL powerups do Normal Damage. Cooldown of 60 seconds.

Heat will be converted from the animation of it to a number instead ranging from 1 per orb to 100 per orb with a max of 1000.

*-SubModules-*
SubModules are Modules that you put on Modules to improve them. Each Module has two SubModule Slots. Each of them must be unlocked the same way trinket and weapon slots are. They last for one month. You can only have one status and one damage type on each Module. Once added, they can be removed. All statuses and all damage types are available other than normal due to that being the standard effect. Note that Medical Attention can not have SubModules.
