syphon gun prototype
Plural: Unknown
This is a prototype weapon that "fell off a truck" that was headed towards a mansion in the desert. The ethics of using this are a little fuzzy so you try not to think about it. That guy in the green suit probably didn't need it anyway.
In any event, the label on the side describes this backpack-mounted unit as a "broad-scale, ecto-powered, multi-hyphenated, aura-appropriating syphoning weapon". Your best guess is that it steals a bit of the target's essence and uses it to power the gun.
In other words, this gun sucks.

During combat Syphon Gun can be used as an item to acquire additional elemental damage
- If the target has one resistance or immunity:
- You fix the syphon gun's sights on <foe name> and begin drawing in a stream of <Y> energy. Mua ha ha ha! Errr... the heroic equivalent of that.
- If the target has two resistances or immunities:
- You fix the syphon gun's sights on <foe name> and begin drawing in a stream of <Y> and <Z> energy. Mua ha ha ha! Errr... the heroic equivalent of that.
Notes
- X is an elemental damage value that appears equal to Level*2 of an element corresponding with Y.
- In the event of the target having two elemental values the Level*2 damage is divided evenly between Y & Z.
- Y can be colorless, black, red, blue, yellow, grey, green, or purple depending on the elemental properties of the target.
- Drawing colorless will reset your essence back to None.
- When bought: The shopkeeper accepts your stars, handing you a futuristic ranged weapon. When you ask where he got it, he just whistles innocently.
