Title: The Bowel Disruptor
Post by: GMLovlie on May 25, 2010, 06:47:47 AM

I guess some people here must have read Transmetropolitan about our favourite journalist with his nifty Air Jesus shoes and his particularly effective bowel disruptor...

The former isn’t too hard to make, the latter I’d like some suggestions about.

My immediate idea was internal poisoning, default setting being tiny, but of course with tinkering and black market mods there should be the possibility of complete prolapse and internal failure...

any other suggestions?

Sounds a lot like a Red Dwarf weapon to me.

Anyway, internal poisoning sounds fine.

Been too long since I saw Red Dwarf, but certainly that’s a good source for fun sci-fi inspiration :) thanks!

genetic specific bacteria or an internal parasite or any parasite for that matter. Also maybe bad water or food.

I think you want this:

Specifically the "Brown Note"?

I think that internal disruption would work for the more deadly versions, while the nausea inducing and other non lethal versions are more akin to Confusion, Distractions and/or Jolts.
