Mechanik’s Union

This device appears to be a single bulky alchemical gauntlet for the right hand, overlayed with aurum wiring and articulated with brass. The palm is taken up by a shallow circular socket within the rim of which runs ionic coiling. The gauntlet takes up most of the forearm with a automated wrist loader on the inner side toward the body, and a length ways socketed heavy accumulator on the outer. A thick gutta-percha pipe within a coil of conductive cable runs from the gauntlet along the top of the arm to the backpack mounted convergence engine. The top of which is a small gravity hopper filled with egg sized metal spheres. Below this the blue light and crackle of a heavy stormchamber is plainly visible socketed into the main engine. The entire device is hung from a body harness to better distribute the uneven weight on the right side of the body. The hopper looks to store around 20 of the small steel balls, each with an aproximate weight of 1lb.

As a swift action, the wrist loader presents a single steel ball from the gravity hopper into the right hand. This is achieved by an exaggerated shrugging motion combined with a twisting the wrist 90 degrees to the left. This motion also charges the ‘launch items‘ plate from the wrist mounted accumulator, drawing 1 charge. The steel ball may now be flung standard ranged attack (120ft), it deals 1d4 bludgeoning damage. The real power of this device comes from charging the steel ball with unstable voltaic energy before launching. As a full round action the wearer of this device may load and charge and throw a single steel ball, drawing from the stormchamber and the ‘shocking grasp‘ & ‘voltaic capacitor‘ plates.  Upon impact; or when the wearers turn ends, the ball deals 5d6 electrical damage in a 30ft radius from its current position (DC16 Reflex for half damage). Note, the steel balls are usually rendered into a molten mess by the discharge if used in this manner.
