Difference between revisions of "Motivator"

Coilers are pieces of technology that [[Jax]] invented with the help of [[Paige]]. Coilers reverse the electrical current in the motivators, and therefore reverses the effect of the motivator. Jax used them for several pieces of technology, such as Boomerangboomerang and Mitosismitosis.{{book ref|Lux|9}}

When in [[Babilar]], [[David Charleston]] uses a motivator called a [[Spyrilspyril]] to move quickly between the rooftops of the city. Derived from the DNA of an Epic known as [[Georgi]], the Spyrilspyril allows its user to propel themselves through the air or through water, using powerful jets of water.{{book ref|Firefight|18}}{{Book ref|Firefight|23}} The Spyrilspyril is very sensitive, and requires precise and careful steering.{{Book ref|Firefight|24}}

The Boomerangboomerang allows its user to teleport in a chosen direction, then teleport back soon after. During his time at the Coop. Jax learned about the incomplete motivator called Boomerang, which was derived from an Epic who was also named BoomerangSlingshot, who had teleportation abilities. However, the last Reckoner to try to complete it had vaporized himself by accident.{{Book ref|Lux|6}} About thirty seconds after teleporting, the teleported object's or person's molecules begin to disassemble, until there is nothing left. As far as Jax was able to figure out, the only way to keep the object from disintegrating was to smash the Boomerang deviceslingshot after teleporting it. The real breakthrough came when Jax invented Coilers, which could reverse the power of a motivator. He applied the coiler technology to the Boomerangslingshot, so that when he teleported something, he could then reverse the Boomerangmotivator and teleport the object back.{{Book ref|Lux|9}} If he didn't teleport it back after thirty seconds, it began to disintegrate. Jax changed the name of the device to boomerang soon after.{{cite}}

Later on, Jax put the Boomerangboomerang motivator into a more convenient model. He turned it into a watch, with a pressure sensor in the watch face. Pointing the watch in the desired direction and pressing the watch face teleports you up to thirty feet in that direction. Press the watch face again, and you teleport back to your original position. The distance can be adjusted using a small dial.{{Book ref|lux|12}}

Perfected by Jax, thisthe devicesonic snare can be connected to a sound mixer and used to listen to conversations or other sounds going on anywhere in a large area. Adjusting the frequency to the right setting allows the user to listen in on specific people or rooms. Jax uses it to eavesdrop on a conversation between [[Zeff]] and [[Prof]].{{Book ref|Lux|9}}
