Here-There Gun
Here-There Gun by Taalismn
“In yet another incident of super science gone irresponsibly mad, the Grammacy City Cost Guard fished yet another automobile out of the West Bay, after it was observed vanishing off the Interstate Bridge and appearing almost immediately over the waters of the Bay, making this the third time the ‘Jumper Dunker ‘ has struck-”
Believed to be an attempt at creating a teleportation device, Here-There Guns(HTGs) have since appeared in the hands of some supervillain groups. Their source is unknown, but HTGs have been used in a number of thefts, high-profile acts of vandalism, and terrorist ‘pranks’.
Here-There Guns resemble handheld dish microphones with pistol grips and handholds. Pointed at an object, they then teleport the object to a set distance in their range. The object in question is repelled/teleported AWAY from the shooter’s position, not TOWARD them (there are rumors of a There-Here Gun that draws distant objects TOWARDS the shooter’s position, but none have yet been observed in operation, nor has there many word of success on creating a dual-mode device).
- Weight: 15 lbs
- Range: 5,000 ft
- Damage: Teleports a targeted object, up to 5,000 lbs, AWAY from the shooter to a set distance(cannot exceed the device’s range) along the device’s aim path(so the HTG cannot, for example, teleport a car behind the shooter). The HTG will teleport objects through any intervening solid objects, but if the end point of the teleport ends in solid material, the teleport will abort in the next suitably large open space before that point. The distance between the HTG and the target must be line of sight and CANNOT be obstructed(no targeting through walls). Multiple small objects (or people) can be teleported as long as they do not exceed the weight limit total and are in physical contact with each other. Anything NOT meeting those parameters will NOT be teleported (no partial teleports or whisking somebody’s lungs out of their body).
- Rate of Fire: Once per melee.
- Payload: 5 shot battery. The built-in battery requires the equivalent of twenty car batteries to recharge.
- Cost: The HTG has appeared on the black markets for 2 million U.S. dollars or more.
