Cancer Posted March 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 The weapons do not have to be wielded by the inventor character picked, though; that isn't a requirement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Since the Sonic Screwdriver is gone, Dr. Arroway will be using... One other item of personal equipment : A Federation tricorder. I can't find an image right at the moment, but the preferred version would be the one from Star Trek: Discovery that is worn on the wrist and projects a heads-up display in the air in front of you.

I believe that is different…the item chosen and the description provided. Could you clarify?

Pattern Ghost Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 It seems we're picking through the weekend on this one, so for my Saturday pick: Base: Fantasy Island (From Fantasy Island TV show) archer, Hermit and Old Man 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archer Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 8 hours ago, Bazza said: would you prefer Stormbreaker? No, Mjolnir is fine. I guess if nothing else, Batman could fly it over someone's head in his Bat-airplane then use the Bat-Laser on his utility belt to cut a ring around Mjolnir through the bottom of the plane so it'd drop on the villain's head.

You are assuming that this Bruce, has a Batplane. As it hasn’t been drafted yet, you may assume too much. Plus, this is a Sheriff Bruce, so is deemed worthy.

The tricorder and hologram-based HUD are actually functions of the 32nd century Delta Badge, which also includes comms and transporter functions. Sorry, mate.

She looked down at the item: it resembled a largish electronic calculator which looked insanely complicated. It had about a hundred tiny flat press buttons and a screen about four inches square. She was relieved to see, however, that it had the words "DON'T PANIC" inscribed in large friendly letters on its cover. --- one book, scroll, tome, map, database, recording, or similar read-only fixed-content knowledge store.

csyphrett Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 22 hours ago, csyphrett said: one home base, which must be anchored to the ground or space-time or something. While it might be in a fixed orbit, or be disassembled and reassembled elsewhere, such "motility" is highly restricted. As an example: Deep Space 9 is a base, but Enterprise NCC-1701 is a starship. one Spaceship or Aircraft Doc Smith's Skylark one Land Vehicle. FESS from The Warlock in Spite of Himself one Water Vehicle. Similar comment about living creatures being disqualified. Personal ranged weapon: Green Lantern Power Ring one melee personal weapon one other item of personal equipment (armor, sensory apparatus, fly-belt, love philtre, universally useful trinket, nonsentient computer, food/drink synthesizer, whatever) one magic spell, incantation, mathematical theorem, or similar created tool/weapon/capacity with no material component : John Taylor's third eye. (From the Night Side, this is Taylor's ability to find things, even weaknesses in shields.) one book, scroll, tome, map, database, recording, or similar read-only fixed-content knowledge store. one nonliving* robot, android, or other sentient artificial nonliving character, though it may not be easy to distinguish from a living being one inventor/artificer/gadgeteer character. This is your nominal hero, and must be a living* biological creature, though not necessarily human one free option ... possible uses include a sidekick, or perhaps a hero who uses a bunch of this stuff, could be another spiffy piece of equipment that doesn't fit easily into any of the above slots, or perhaps you want a second battleship or something, or maybe your hero wants to ride a horse (and a living horse does not qualify as a Land Vehicle). Creative uses of the option pick are encouraged. The free option cannot be among the first six items picked. Just now, csyphrett said: I picked Fess as my land vehicle, but he could also qualify as a robot ally. I think I am going to change that to the robot ally.

Pariah Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Today's pick, and the problem Dr. Arroway is trying to solve/prevent: One magic spell, incantation, mathematical theorem, or similar created tool/weapon/capacity with no material component: The Anti-Life Equation.
