| ===== DISGUISE KIT, MORPHIC (PL 6) ===== | ===== DISGUISE KIT, MORPHIC (PL 6) ===== | ||
| Most people forced to work undercover for extended periods rely on the [[morphic disguise kit equipment]]. The kit features a pair of contact lenses that change color, a hair prosthetic that changes color, length, and texture, a paint-on LCD injector for instant tattoos that transform, and a vocal encoder (vocoder) that is attached to the throat to alter the user's voice. Each component can be altered on command. The morphic disguise kit grants a +6 equipment bonus on all [[disguise_skill|Disguise]] checks while in use. | Most people forced to work undercover for extended periods rely on the [[morphic disguise kit equipment]].

| [[Flash-seal equipment]] looks like a block of metal roughly the size of a thin brick. It attaches to any door frame. When activated, chemical compounds inside the block of metal burn fast and hot enough to melt the metal into a liquid form. Almost instantaneously, a second chemical compound freezes the molten metal back in-to its solid state. The result is that the metal melts, sinks into the space between the door and its frame, and then solidifies again, essentially welding the door shut. A door that has been flash-sealed may not be opened by normal means and must be destroyed or cut through as though it were a wall. | [[Flash-seal equipment]] looks like a block of metal roughly the size of a thin brick.

| ===== FUSION TORCH (PL 6) ===== | ===== FUSION TORCH (PL 6) ===== | ||
| The [[fusion torch equipment]] is the Fusion Age's equivalent of a blowtorch. The fusion torch produces a small, thin gout of flame that burns with such intensity that it creates temporary blobs of plasma all around it. The fusion torch consists of a small fuel canister attached to the torch generator. The torch deals 3dlO points of damage each round to immobile objects. Due to the nature of the fusion torch, a character using the torch must be meticulous in the way he cuts to maximize damage to whatever he is slicing through. If used as an improvised weapon, the fusion torch deals only 1d10 points of damage since it is being wielded in a more haphazard fashion. | The [[fusion torch equipment]] is the Fusion Age's equivalent of a blowtorch.

| - | ===== INSTRUMENTS ===== | ||
| - | In the 26th century, miniaturized electronics, advanced acoustics, and superior materials have dramatically changed some musical instruments, but not others. The keyboards and percussion instruments described below are a plastic sheet that can be rolled out to use. It includes touch-pads instead of keys and drums, and built-in synthesizers, equalizers, and speakers. The bulkier, to some “truer” original versions of these instruments can still be found, but are rare enough that they usu-ally add +2 to the purchase DC. Playing with the ancient form of the instrument impresses most audiences, however, and often adds an equipment bonus of +1 or even +2 to Per-from checks. Stringed and wind instruments retain their original forms but also include built-in speakers and equalizers. | ||

| - | **Music Gauntlet (PL 7):** Though some decry it as the end of “real” music, the [[music gauntlet equipment]] is an advanced musical instrument that can synthesize the sounds of hundreds or thousands of other instruments. The user still needs to make the appropriate [[perform_skill|Perform]] checks to sound good playing it, but that hasn’t stopped many enthusiastic owners from turning up the volume to 11 and playing every known musical instrument in the galaxy at once. | ||

| Although superficially resembling a flamethrower, this tool is used to spray a spe-cial liquid that makes metal brittle It has a range of 10 feet and can coat a 5-foot square of metal in one round. After 1 d6 minutes, the liquid reduces the hardness of the metal permanently by half (round down). The tank holds enough liquid to coat 50 square feet of surface. The liquid has no effect on any other type of substance. | Although superficially resembling a flamethrower, this tool is used to spray a spe-cial liquid that makes metal brittle It has a range of 10 feet and can coat a 5-foot square of metal in one round.

| ===== MICROTORCH (PL 6) ===== | ===== MICROTORCH (PL 6) ===== | ||
| The [[microtorch equipment]], which is no larger than a flashlight, is a handheld arc welder and cut-ting torch combination. It is commonly used by rescue services, service workers, and military engineer units. In addition to making sturdy welds, the microtorch can burn through steel. A microtorch deals 2d10 points of damage, but it must be no more than 1 inch from the surface to be cut. Obviously, a microtorch can be used as a weapon as well; the wielder must make a melee touch attack to deal damage with it. | The [[microtorch equipment]], which is no larger than a flashlight, is a handheld arc welder and cut-ting torch combination.

| - | ===== NAUSEA GUN (PL 7) ===== | ||
| - | Like its wand predecessor, the [[nausea gun equipment]] employs subsonic waves to produce sudden, overwhelming nausea in targets up to 60 feet away. The nausea gun requires a ranged touch attack to trigger the effect. Targets who fail a DC 15 Fortitude save are nauseated for 1d4+ 1 rounds. | ||
| - | ===== NAUSEA WAND (PL 6) ===== | ||
| - | The [[nausea wand equipment]] employs short-range sub-sonic waves to cause a systemic reaction in the target's body, producing sudden, devastating nausea. The wielder makes a melee touch attack to trigger the effect. Targets who fail a DC 15 Fortitude save are nauseated for 1d4+ 1 rounds. | ||

| [[Wallcrawler gear equipment]] uses thousands of tiny suction cups and variable-grip adhesives implanted in soft boots and gloves to greatly improve the wearer's ability to cling to surfaces. Using wallcrawler gear grants the wearer a +4 equipment bonus on Climb checks. Using at least the gloves in combat grants the wearer a +4 equipment bonus on grapple checks made to hold an opponent. | [[Wallcrawler gear equipment]] uses thousands of tiny suction cups and variable-grip adhesives implanted in soft boots and gloves to greatly improve the wearer's ability to cling to surfaces.
