===Larraman's Organ===
'''Phase 5:''' A liver-shaped organ about the size of a golf-ball, this implant is placed within the chest cavity and connected to the circulatory system. It generates and controls 'Larraman cells', which are released into the blood stream if the recipient is wounded. They attach themselves to leukocytes (white blood cells) in the blood and are carried to the site of the wound, whereupon contact with air they form a near instant patch of scar tissue, sealing any wounds the Space Marine may suffer - acting like platelets, only better.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2a}}{{Fn|3}} Despite this, foreign objects, such as embedded metal shrapnel or blades, can restrict scar tissue from forming properly and the wound will continue to bleed.{{Fn|37}}
