==Description==

A rare Yithian weapon, this device was created by the race shortly after their arrival on prehistoric Earth. Built to combat the carnivorous flying polyps, it is a camera-shaped weapon that fires great gouts of electricity.

Numerous varieties exist. A common one contains a pack of 32 charges and takes 1 round to reload. Multiple charges may be fired at once, though each charge used above four at one time gives a 5% cumulative chance of burning out the gun. Each charge does 1D10 damage to the target of the weapon.

Base range is 100 yards. For each additional 100 yards add one penalty to the attack roll and decrease the damage roll result by 3. At point-blank range add one bonus to the attack roll.

An investigator can figure out how to use this weapon with a successful INT roll. The base chance for a human attacking with the Firearms (Lightning Gun) skill is 10%.
