Touch of Metal Organ

Cylus Jest

Servant of the Inquisition
Touch of Metal Organ
Intent: Personal Weapon for Cylus Jest
Development Thread: Reverse The Hunt
Manufacturer: Crynic Corporation
Model: Not Applicable
Affiliation: Cylus Jest
Modularity: No
Production: Unique
Material: Durasteel, Medical Components, Laminanium
Classification: Artificial Organ
Size: One handed [Literally]
Length: 6 centimeters
Weight: 0.2 KG
Special Features: Inside of Hand/Consistent Temperature
Description:
This machine is a sort of new look at cybernetics, especially with them fitting into biological organisms as opposed to full droids. It is an artificial organ in a way, it is surgically inserted into the hand. This process is performed by trained medical professionals and involves the opening of the hand followed by the construction of the organ inside of the hand, this means that the parts are assembled within so as to avoid complications. There are minor holes formed around the veins to allow for them to continue on their normal paths instead of having to "re-wire" them, this means that the organ simply goes around the veins and arteries.

The container is filled with liquid Laminanium and is kept at a constant temperature inside of the chamber to keep it there thanks to a centralized heating/cooling system located inside of the container. The container connects to a needle-tube which fits into the exact center of the middle finger, this means that there is a slight surgical procedure on the middle finger to allow for the tube to nestle in and not disrupt normal activities. It remains there until it is deployed through a remote signal which can be linked to one other electronic device; this means that it is difficult for a slicer to break in, though it is possible, then the needle slides downwards off of the finger, pointing straight ahead from the finger and locks into place near the palm.

Once the needle is injected into a target, the container spews the liquid Laminanium through it
using diffusion. The Laminanium rapidly hardens into it's solid state inside of the target being
for reasonable lethality depending on the injection area, for example if the target is hit near a vital area then the metal may cause death thanks to clogging up the area and stopping the organ from being able to function. If injected into an area filled with only muscle however it will simply make the muscle unable to move well and will cause muscular damage/pain. The Laminanium can be removed surgically if the individual survives.
Effects are noticed immediately.

Were the container to suffer extreme bluntforce it is possible that it would crack and trickle into the hand, this would likely cause fairly substantial damage to the hand, though it is still possible that it could be fixed as it is not a vital area.

  • Going to need a dev thread of 10 posts for Laminanium.
    Laminanium (( Objective : With two or more other writers, complete a role-play in reverse, starting with it’s end and ending with it’s beginning –OR-- complete a role-play from an NPC’s perspective who is accompanying your character. ))

  • Can you elaborate on the process? Is this a black market type of surgery? Or something anyone can have done in the future?

Cylus Jest said:
minor holes in the actual container
  • How does the material contained within the device not leak out and kill the wearer?

Cylus Jest said:
liquid Laminanium and is kept at a constant temperature
  • Please elaborate as to how this is achieved.

  • Please elaborate as to this remote signal, is this a hand-held device? A radio frequency? Can this be damaged via EMP? Can this be sliced into remotely?
  • Does the needle retract in and out of the finger?

Cylus Jest said:
the needle falls away from the finger and locks into place near the palm.
  • Can you clarify what you mean here? I am not sure whether you mean that this folds into the wearer's palm, or retracts into the finger, or falls off.

Cylus Jest said:
The Laminanium rapidly hardens into it's solid state inside of the target being for maximum lethality.
  • Can you define the lethality here? How long does the target have before effects are noticeable? How lethal is it, exactly? Will the target die in several seconds? Minutes? How can this be treated and reversed?

[member="Cylus Jest"] - Aside from the dev thread requirement:
  • Because I am not expecting anyone to be a medical professional with regard to how surgical implants work, the wording here is sufficient as to the process of getting it done.
  • One thing I will ask is what are the ramifications if this implant/hand were to experience substantial blunt force against it? Would the container possibly rupture? The hand is a relatively small area for something like this to be inserted and be kept safe, as well as not be entirely noticeable.


Cylus Jest said:
then the needle slides downwards off of the finger, pointing straight ahead from the finger and locks into place near the palm.
  • I'm still not entirely clear on this. Do you mean that this protrudes from the finger tip? But it can somehow be folded down into the wearer's palm? How is this possible? Needles don't typically bend without breaking.
  • This is a very small container judging by the location limitations and the weight/length indicators. For something like this to be lethal it would need to be a fairly long needle to puncture an organ, or be extremely lucky (if not done via a surgical injection) to inject into a vein or artery. Otherwise this, in my opinion, would likely not be lethal, but instead incredibly painful, but doubtfully lethal.

Added something about the blunt force at the end.
The needle thing I will try to explain to the best of my ability.

So, if you were to take a piece of wood and you cut a square in the center, there would be a square shaped hole for a square peg to fit into.
Basically that's what we're doing, but with a needle. When it's needed, it falls unlocks itself from the finger and falls down the little peghole to the palm, where it locks into place.

Also, you are correct about the small container, that's why I said it would only really be lethal if in a vital area.

I looked at the dev thread, however it does not meet the requirements of the reverse RP objective.

Laminanium (( Objective : With two or more other writers, complete a role-play in reverse, starting with it’s end and ending with it’s beginning –OR-- complete a role-play from an NPC’s perspective who is accompanying your character. ))

You are missing 1 writer. The objective requires a minimum of three writers in total.
