Ramsey aka Kralizec! (DustinM@rifts-rpg.com) Any type of S.D.C. automatic rifle (M16, AK-47, etc.) can be converted to Techno-Wizardry. Once converted, the weapon amplifies and directs telekinetic energy to fire bullet-hard bolts of force. Note: The TK bolts leave no telltale casings, bullets, or muzzle flash. Bolts that hit a target puncture or tear through it, but there is no physical round/bullet. Once it hits, the force bolt is gone. Creation Costs: P.P.E. Cost: 10 + 5 P.P.E. for each die of damage the weapon does, +10 P.P.E. for each additional payload of 50 shots. Spells Needed: Telekinesis and Energy Bolt Physical Requirements: one rose quartz worth at least 750 credits for each die of damage the weapon does, plus one diamond worth at least 1000 credits for each additional payload of 50 shots added to the weapon. Level Requirements: None; a Techno-Wizard of any level can create this type of weapon. As the Techno-Wizard advances in experience, they may build the weapon with an additional payload-increasing diamond at levels 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 10.
