Tron chutes are accoutrements of the Black Guard that are equipped on their backs to facilitate aerial drops. When deployed, they appear as eight wiry appendages supporting four energy webs with a hexagon pattern. The Black Guards can use their Tron chutes to control their descent in a manner very similar to using a parachute. A landing is often quite heavy and can take some skill to avoid injury. Even under the controlled descent of a Tron chute a Black Guard can still derez a program unlucky enough to be caught directly in the path of the fall.
