− | *MODIFIED SCALZ-I PLASMA TORCH
| |
− | The Mark-I Harrison Armory SCALZ pattern plasma torch is a common sight on both planetary and orbital mining operations. Durable and reliable, the modular magnetic fields can be adjusted for anything from welding work to excavation cutting that vaporizes mineral matter to avoid particulate debris. At full power, the SCALZ-I can project the torch a full meter for six hours' continuous operation before replacing the rechargeable battery.

− | Vix's SCALZ-I has been "modified," in that it has been disassembled and reassembled wrong, and with a fundamental disregard for operational specifications, manufacturer's warranty, and basic safety regulation. In its current configuration, a user with a great deal of familiarity with SCALZ-I operation, a great deficit of self-preservation instinct, or (ideally) both can modulate the magnetic fields in a way that creates an extreme-range high-energy burst of plasma for 0.79 seconds before permanently burning out the power source.

− | During that 0.79 seconds, it is marginally even less safe to be standing where the plasma torch is pointing than it is to be the one operating the device.
