DNA Scrambler

Personal

Worn

This small gun-shaped device uses acute microwave radiation to scramble the DNA of living creatures caught in its area of effect. It was accidentally invented by shirren scientists attempting to understand Swarm biology and turned into an effective nonlethal, albeit pain-inducing, weapon. While wielding a DNA scrambler in one-hand, you can activate it as a standard action, dealing 3d8 nonlethal damage to all living targets in a 30-foot cone as their DNA unravels. This causes a great deal of pain, imparting the off-target condition on each living creature in the cone for 1 round. A creature who DC 19 Fortitude saving throw halves the damage and negates the off-target condition. This is a pain effect.
