- The Locke Ball is specially designed to capture creatures within it, to allow for safety for the hunter, whilst saving time, and not harming the creature that is being captured.
- Using Stun Blaster Technology the Ball will stun the beast, then shoots out a grapple, that hits the stunned creature.
- Using a Shrinkroot Potion laced tip for the grapple, the creature will become small enough to fit into the ball, and then the grapple will detach. Allowing for easy transport of any sized creature up to Extreme Proportions. (No larger than a Bantha.)
- Transport: The use of this device allows for easy capture of any creature, especially due to the fact that it shrinks them down to a small enough size to fit into the device.
- Safety: This provides ease of mind for the hunter, allowing for them to be at a safe distance where they can then capture any beast safely, without the worry of harm to oneself.
- Carry: These are small devices, just large enough to fit into one's palm without being too large, creating the ability to carry many of these on an expedition to capture creates of many different varieties and sizes.
- Don't Miss: The LockeBall Only works if the ball directly hits the creature, meaning any miss can cause the device to not function properly.
- Only Beasts: Through differing research the Lockeball cannot capture any humanoid species that might be "accidentally" struck by the device.
- Extracting: Whilst it is easy to extract the creature from the ball, there is no knowing how mad the beasty will be after being stuffed into a ball.
Matthew Locke has been a bounty hunter for many years, traveling the galaxy as a wandering mercenary and the occasional hunter. Having faced near-death situations with some of the nasty creatures of the galaxy, Matt set out to create a device to better control the capturing process, to make it easy. Having a brother with a fully fledge technology corporation made the ability to produce and research the technology designed a breeze, allowing for the quick research and development of the LockeBall.
Also being one of foresight he made sure that the ball could not be used against humanoids, even though he knew it would've made his job a lot easier, the idea of that went against his principles.
