Editing Genius The Transgression/Chapter Two: Character Creation (section)

===Generator (● to ●●●●●):===
The genius possesses an object that generates Mania. These extraordinary devices are found, not made, and represent peculiar relics of mad or sane-but-terrifying science: alien elemental dynamos, self-transforming equations scribbled in forgotten notebooks, mundane objects "imprinted" with the energy of scientific breakthroughs, highly radioactive atomic piles, and radios for talking to God. These strange one-off devices exist partly in our world and partly in the realm of Idea, and some have been fought over by mad scientists for generations or millennia.

The amount of Mania generated per day and the maximum amount of Mania it can store depends on the Generator's Size and rank.

 * If Size 0, the Generator may be internalized automatically if desired.

Drawing Mania from a Generator works like drawing it from a capacitor. (See Capacitors, Page 295.) Given the risk of unmada, larger and better Generators are often employed by several geniuses at once.
