Description:

The Tesla, affectionately referred to as a "polyphase arse-kicker," is an electroshock weapon that operates much like a modern taser, emitting a directed electrical charge in order to incapacitate a target. In addition to stunning the victim, the electric shock scrambles the synapses of the brain for a brief moment, which deletes several minutes' worth of immediate short-term memory. The stunning and short-term memory loss occur at a setting of two on the device. Repeated uses on a single target does not lengthen the time the target will lose short term memory, slight increase in brain damage may occur. Highest settings of five are more dangerous and are known to turn people to ash. However, at very close range, settings as low as 1 or 2 can still be dangerous. When the electrical streams of two Teslas are aimed at each other, the resulting collision causes a shockwave strong enough to knock the wielders off their feet.

However, after using The Tesla about four times, it requires recharging. Done so by finding an electrical output source and inserting the charging port into the socket. Charging takes roughly thirty minutes. Give or take.



Description:

Incoming transmissions sound a buzzing to alert the possessor of this device. To start the transmission, the device is opened like a book and the right-most button located just below the red lamp is pushed. Pushing the button a second time ends the transmission. Using radio waves, The Farnsworth can connect to its sister or brother counterparts (aka other Farnsworths) and display the caller on the small circular screen. This allows callers to look at the person they are speaking to while talking to them.

Thanks to the evolution of the digital age and the "low tech" make out of the device, it is extremely difficult to hack the device. Unless one was able to disrupt the frequency and signals sent out from the device, stopping the two callers from connecting to one another.

Before I approve, I have a question about the Tesla. Is the memory loss temporal or mental? As in, if I hit someone twice with it, one right after the other. Do they lose 6 minutes of their memory instead of 3, or would it still be 3?

Still be three. But repeated continuous strikes from the Tesla i would think would cause some brain damage eventually, but thanks to the rule of shots (How many times you can shoot before a recharge is needed) it constricts that option drastically.

Well add it in there anyway. Then it's approved.
