Restrictions:
Description: A cranial device worn like a circlet, the NSX-10b is more colloquially called a "Headjammer." The device douses a wearer with wireless, radio, and ERP noise that disrupts electronics across all spectra. When worn, this device blocks all electronic use from a user -- even interacting with other devices, as the field is extended by touch using the body's own electromagnetic spectra -- and also has the effect of disabling all Mechanical Prosthetics, Armor Augmentations, and digital devices worn or held by the user. Removing the Headjammer is a complicated process without the attachment key, as it's locked into place when attached. When removed, all noise ceases and device use returns to normal.

Name: "Doldrums" Anti-UMN Barrier
Manufacturer: Unus Mundus Networks, Inc.
Price: N/A
DC to Make: N/A
Restrictions: Illegal
Description: A small staff like antenna that generates a spatial distortion dome in an enclosed area. The rift is small enough to not affect matter above the quantum level, but disrupts the E.P.R. paradox that the U.M.N. operates off of, making any pad inside the field out of sync with the network. The high price comes from the components that comprise it, as well as the grossly illegal nature of the device outside of licensed use.
Name: "Shadow Broker" Unus Mundus Access Device
Manufacturer: Unknown
Price: You can't afford it. Not like it matters, anyway.
DC to Make: N/A
Restrictions: Illegal
Description: This cracked UMN pad has been designed to give administrative access to the network, allowing police- and military-grade operations for IDs, clearance, information, and resources.

Restrictions:
Description: A unique device that functions similar to sonar and radar, but at a more constant and advanced pattern. The Ultrasound Scanner consists of an emitter that sends out continuous ultrasonic pulses and a receiver that picks up the echoes of these pulses to create a topographic ultrasound map. Ultrasound is perfect to "see" textures, calculate distances between objects, and pick up things otherwise invisible to the naked eye (like people cloaked by an Invisibility spell), It can also be set to a passive mode, where it doesn’t emit ultrasonic pulses but still picks up ultrasound from outside sources, such as motion sensors or someone else’s ultrasound sensors on active mode (or bats).

Manufacturer: Nashan Stellar Dynamics
Price: 2400 gil
DC to Make: 75
Restrictions:
Description: A handheld positioning system receiver unit designed to use electronic signals to pinpoint a location down to 1 meter. Although past models required a satellite fix, modern units use a combination of Unus Mundus frequencies, radio transmissions, and satellites to triangulate a position, both terrestrial and in space.
Name: Autopicker
Manufacturer: Cerberus Skunkworks
Price: 22,050 gil
DC to Make: 1200

Description: The "Lockpick Gun," as some call it, is a quick and effective way to bypass a cadre of mechanical locks. It's used by pressing the "muzzle" of this handheld device against the keyhole to a lock and simply squeezing the trigger. When used against mechanical or traditional locks, adds a +10 to the Sleight of Hand bonus.
Name: Lockpicking Kit
Manufacturer: Various
Price: 2400 gil
DC to Make: 300
Restrictions:
Description: A simple set of necessary tools to allow the picking of many different types of locks, both high- and low-tech. As these are generally mundane, easy-to-find tools in every day labor, they're not considered illegal. Using them, however... Provides a +5 bonus to Sleight of Hand rolls to pick locks.
Name: "Gecko" Tape Gloves
Manufacturer: Ariake Technologies
Price: 9150 gil
DC to Make: 600
Restrictions: Occupy a "Ring" equipment slot.
Description: The outer layer of these gloves is made of a special dry adhesive that incorporates millions of fine microscopic hairs that bond to other surfaces. Individually, these bonding forces are tiny, but combined they’re strong enough to attach a troll, upside down, to the ceiling. Gecko tape gloves come as a set that includes gloves, kneepads, and slip-on-soles. Provides a +5 to Acrobatics (Climbing) rolls.
Name: SSX-5 Nanite "Stealth" Rope
Manufacturer: CRYNet Systems
Price: 16,230 gil
DC to Make: 800
Restrictions:
Description: This controllable nanomachine colony is very, very simply programmed; it forms a long length of rope-like cord (how long? long enough.) that is strong enough to lift metric tonnes of weight at a time. The main advantage of nanite rope is that it is nearly monofilament until touched by a "control rod" (included), which makes the cord bundle and gain its full tensile strength. Another function of the control rod is to collapse the rope, simply causing the nanite colony to disperse, leaving no trace of the rope. The nanites swarm back into the control rod when collapsed for another use.

The car's ordinance can be set to a time- or remote-detonation, and functions as the loaded Grenade would.
Name: "Hunter-Killer" Target-Seeking Drone
Manufacturer: Carrington Institute
Price: 36,750 gil + Grenade Cost
DC to Make: 15000
Restrictions:
Description: A small, man-portable and deployable remote-controlled drone unit, the HK is a one-use seek-and-destroy device that can be loaded with conventional explosives to defeat infantry or light armored units. The HK comes in many shapes and loadouts, and can be devastating depending on the expense gone to to load it. The HK is a one-use device that performs a "kamikaze" attack in order to deploy its ordinance in the same fashion of the loaded Grenade.

Manufacturer: Hahne-Kedar
Price: 40,200 gil
DC to Make: 12000
Restrictions:
Description: The T.A. Backpack, or more colloquially known as the "hop pack," is a powerful Terminus System creation that uses compressed and controlled, short bursts of combusted fuel to propel a wearer over obstacles or up a typically unscalable incline.

DC to Make: N/A
Restrictions:
Description: A forgotten development by a nearly bankrupted Aperture Science before the NOD/GDI war on Earth, Propulsion Gel was created with the intention of making point-to-point travel faster. While its actual chemical makeup has been lost to time, containers of Propulsion Gel can still be found across the black market and in unusual places throughout the galaxy. Propulsion Gel has the unusual effect of doubling a user's velocity, increasing his/her running speed almost double, doubling the Running skill of a Strength/Dexterity-based Running check, and allowing for a user's Run skill to be added to a Jump check when a running start is given.
Name: Repulsion Gel
Manufacturer: Aperture Science
Price: 500,000,000 gil, or 1 voluntary testing at Aperture Science
DC to Make: N/A
Restrictions:
Description: A forgotten creation by the almost defunct Aperture Science prior to the outbreak of the NOD/GDI conflict on Earth, Repulsion Gel was created accidentally while scientists were trying to master another creation. Repulsion Gel's chemical makeup has been lost to time, but still-active batches of it can be found across the galaxy. When Repulsion Gel is used, doubles the user's Jump skill in Strength/Dexterity-based Jump checks and doubles a user's jump height.

DC to Make: N/A
Restrictions: Illegal
Description: A small staff like antenna that generates a spatial distortion dome in an enclosed area. The rift is small enough to not affect matter above the quantum level, but disrupts the E.P.R. paradox that the U.M.N. operates off of, making any pad inside the field out of sync with the network. The high price comes from the components that comprise it, as well as the grossly illegal nature of the device outside of licensed use.

Name: SSX-5 Nanite "Stealth" Rope
Manufacturer: CRYNet Systems
Price: 16,230 gil
DC to Make: 800
Restrictions:
Description: This controllable nanomachine colony is very, very simply programmed; it forms a long length of rope-like cord (how long? long enough.) that is strong enough to lift metric tonnes of weight at a time. The main advantage of nanite rope is that it is nearly monofilament until touched by a "control rod" (included), which makes the cord bundle and gain its full tensile strength. Another function of the control rod is to collapse the rope, simply causing the nanite colony to disperse, leaving no trace of the rope. The nanites swarm back into the control rod when collapsed for another use.
