OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
- Intent: To submit a fun ORC themed device for PCs that allows the untrained to lock beams with space wizards.
- Image Source: Ghostbusters
- Canon Link: /
- Primary Source: /
- Manufacturer: OutlawTech
- Affiliation: Outer Rim Coalition, Closed-Market
- Model: Void Pack
- Modularity: No.
Production: Semi-Unique
- Material: Electronic Components, Void Stone Reactor
- Knobs and Buttons and Stuff
- Encrypted Access (Passcode/Biometrics)
- Midichlorian Alert Monitor
- Ergonomic Handle
- Artificial Force Drain: The experimental void pack emits a constant beam of highly charged void stone particles which can disrupt a Force adept's abilities and even drain them of their connection for a limited time after sustained exposure.
- Epic Showdown Button: Void pack particle waves disrupt Force lightning arcs and other similar attacks, locking both beams in a contest of power because of course it does.
- Don't Cross the Streams: Just don't.
- Fragile Components: Requiring many delicate moving parts to keep in working order, any significant damage suffered on the battlefield is liable to render the void pack useless. Repairing the device if it breaks down completely requires time and several PhDs in quantum midichlorian mechanics.
Another weapon in the weird arsenal of the Fringe Sciences Division, OutlawTech void packs are extremely experimental prototype devices intended to provide nonsensitives with a potent anti-sorceror option in combat situations. Although field tested and fully functional large scale production remains impractical due to an incredibly rare power source: slivers of void stone meteorite. Originally intended as a part of their anti-spirit line these manufacturing frustrations have led to the few models on hand being loaned out to key Underground personnel for special operations.
The void pack's back mounted power source is bulky and cumbersome. Armed with the particle wand connected to this backpack via cabling however and even the Force blind are capable of serving as battle sages of a sort. While it is most effective against trained psychics, the same life force flows through all living beings and a void pack's draining effects are similarly dangerous against standard troops as well. It doesn't just cut people off from the Force, it drains that energy right out of them.
