Degausser
degausser
Plural: degaussers
The bane of credit cards everywhere, the degausser will rip information right out of magnetic strips and sources of data anywhere. While it's probably a handy thing to have when trying to grab or destroy someone else's data, you might want to keep it away from your wallet.

Against a foe outside A.R.F.:
You try to run the degausser code against a brick-and-mortar (well, real world) opponent. Needless to say, this technique does not work as planned. Your opponent smacks the code out of your hand and continues the fight well within one standard deviation of the condition they had been in moments before.
Against a foe inside A.R.F.:
You press the trigger on the degausser. There's a slight thump, and a humming sound. Your target's distribution gets significantly less clustered about the mean. By which I mean it begins to waver, changes color rapidly, and then dissolves almost completely. All that's left over is a couple of pieces of code that barely make up a little subscript.
