Ramsey aka Kralizec! (DustinM@rifts-rpg.com) Any type of S.D.C. automatic pistol (Colt .45, 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: 6 + 3 P.P.E. for each die of damage the weapon does, +10 P.P.E. for each additional payload of 5 shots. Spells Needed: Telekinesis and Energy Bolt Physical Requirements: one rose quartz worth at least 250 credits for each die of damage the weapon does, plus one diamond worth at least 1000 credits for each additional payload of 5 shots added to the weapon.

As the Techno-Wizard advances in experience, they may build the weapon with an additional payload-increasing diamond at levels 3, 6, and 9.
