Psi-Mechanic Equipment

Unread post by psijudge »

I want to start a posting of Psi-Mechanic Equipment, so here is my first item.

------------------------------------------

Tinfoil Hat

This ridicules looking device has all the appearances of a cone shaped hat made out of tinfoil with a bunch of wires wrapping around it and in fact, it is a tinfoil pirate hat wrapped in wires.

Once donned by a Psi-Mechanic, preferable where other people can't see him wearing it (-2 to PB when wearing it. It doesn't make you uglier, but your Charm/Impress is going to be down while wearing it. Who is really going to take you serious with a tinfoil hat on your head?), it can Mask I.S.P., Psionics and your P.P.E.

Initial Creation Cost: 4 P.P.E.

Psychic Ability: Mask I.S.P. & Psionics (Sensitive)
I.S.P. Cost: 3
Duration: 10min per lvl

Psychic Ability: Mask P.P.E. (Sensitive)
I.S.P. Cost: 2
Duration: 10min per lvl

*instead of -2 PB for wearing it, I would give it -20% for Charm and Impress.. oh hell, I would give both just for wearing it!*

Here is another one:
---------------------------------------
Lazer Tag Gun

Designed off of the original Lazer Tag guns, the big black ones, this toy has been modified with a larger capacitor, a ruby crystal lens, a laser targeting scope, a belt mounted battery pack and a few straps of duct tape to keep everything together.

Except for the laser targeting scope, there really is no way that this weapon can be confused for a real weapon, except for at night, and you may get laughed at when you first whip out. But when activated, the gun fires a Telekinetic Bullet, equivalent to a Standard Laser Pistol from Nightbane. It does 4d6 damage and for some reason, the original designer hasn't figured out why yet, whenever it hits someone a Beeping sound can be heard, like the sensors from the Lazer Tag game.

Lazer Tag Gun
Range: 100ft
Damage: 4d6
Attacks per Melee: Up to four blast, Max. (The capacitor has to have a recharge time)
Weight: 2lbs

Initial Creation Cost: 2 P.P.E.

Psychic Ability: Telekinetic Bullets (Mechanic)
I.S.P. Cost: 10
Duration: Once activated, the weapon will hold a charge for 1 minute (4 melee) or until fired.*

* This is the standard write from the book, for 20 ISP, 10 if using an item, you get one shot. No special rounds just one bullet. Wouldn't be too bad if you found a VLAW laying around, but would stink if you have .22. I would suggest that you allow the weapon to be fired for as many melee rounds as level. A 1st level would be able to fire the weapon for as many APM, up to 4, for 1 melee round, a 2nd level, 2 melee worth of attack and so on.
Why is this called Telekinetic Bullets if you can only fire one bullet per use?

If I ever win the Powerball, I will visit both games. :D

Here is one more, then I am done for the day.
----------------------------------------------------
Presence Tracker
This hand held device has a large semi-circular display on it that has some strange markings on it. Every second it sends a pulsating tone that scans the area for any presence around the user. The tone does make the user easy to find, +5 perception rolls for detecting the noise and may cause dogs to howl with it.
The tracker will detect Supernatural, Monsters, Humans and, for some reason, it has special symbols for aliens, which have never been detected by it... yet. It detects creatures as a psionic probe, along a liner plane. It will give general reading, “Something big heading this way, about 50 meters.” General numbers, “We got about twenty bogeys closing in on us.” But things that are above are moving above or below it can confuse the user, “I tell you man, they are right on top of us!” “You gotta be reading that thing wrong.”

Initial Creation Cost: 2 P.P.E.
Psychic Ability: Presence Sense (Sensitive)
I.S.P. Cost: 2
Duration: 2min per lvl

Thanks.
If anyone else wants to contribute, then go ahead and post away. I would love to see what others come up with.

I design the items based from the propective of a Nerd or Geek that is a Psi-Mechanic. Imagine a Trekkie that is a Psi-Mechanic, what designs would he come up for Presence Sense? A tri-corder from the The Original Star Trek, not something small and sleek like The Next generation Tre-Corder, but a big bulky thing with a neck strap, the top pops open and it makes a constant beeping sounds as he uses it.
Sure he could make the TNG Tri-corder, but its not as much fun or looks cool.

A figure anything from Movies, T.V. and books are open game.

I just don't like how limiting the stuff that can be made into a Psi-Mechanic device.
