Voidrunner Scientific Gear

Heroes are not always made so because of their ability to fight; scientists have long been revered by sapient societies who admire those who push the frontiers of knowledge past their current boundaries. Like any task, doing so is easier with the right tool.

Chemical Detector. This handheld device measures various fume levels in the air and provides information about their concentration levels. It is often used by security personnel to look for drugs or explosives. While using a chemical detector, you gain an expertise die on Investigate checks to find hidden drugs, chemicals, or explosives.

Cryospray. An aerosol flash-freezing agent, cryospray is normally used to preserve specimens collected during scientific expeditions, but enterprising users have learned a blast of the spray can make metal brittle (a use of the spray reduces an unattended metal object’s AC by 2) or as an improvised weapon (the spray can only be used on targets within 5 feet, and does 2d6 cold damage). A single canister contains enough for 10 uses.

Geiger Counter. This device measures ambient radiation, emitting an audible warning in the presence of dangerous radiation levels.
