Alimbic Datashade

Alimbic Datashades are packets of telepathic energy that were left behind by the Alimbics. Datashades are invisable to normal vision, but can be seen using the Scan Visor. They are blue in appearence, and contain Alimbic Lore. Almost all of Alimbic Lore is found by scanning these Datashades. Datashades were designed by the Alimbics to last for long amounts of time and are resistant to tampering.
