The proton pack is mounted onto an Army issue A.L.I.C.E. pack frame with adjustable shoulder and kidney straps and belt. The proton pack consists of two parts: the nuclear accelerator backpack (proton pack, positron collider, cyclotron) and particle thrower (proton gun, ion wand, ion cannon, neutrona wand). Once the Ghostbuster turns the proton pack on, the Ghostbuster can also switch on the particle thrower. The accelerator accelerates the protons from the cyclotron on the pack into the particle thrower, and the Ghostbuster gets an extremely powerful but destructive particle stream that consists of protons and raw nuclear energy. This stream is capable of entangling a ghost against its will. There are two basic settings: Attack and Containment. The Attack function works against all targets, including living beings (which it can seriously harm), walls, furniture, non-corporeal beings and especially undead. Turning a proton pack on is a move action. Setting a proton pack to Attack inflicts shoots a 5-foot-wide, 90-foot-long line of protons that deals 3d6 points of electrical damage to all creatures and objects in its path. No attack roll is necessary, and thus no feat is needed to operate the weapon effectively. Any creature caught in the line of electricity can make a Reflex save (DC 15) to take half damage. Creatures with cover get a bonus on their Reflex save. The proton pack's ammunition has hardness 5 and 5 hit points. When wielded, the proton pack has a Defense equal to 9 + the wielder's Dexterity modifier + the wielder's class bonus. A proton pack reduced to 0 hit points ruptures and explodes, dealing 6d6 points of fire damage to the wearer (no save allowed) and 3d6 points of splash damage to creatures and objects in adjacent 5-foot squares (Reflex save, DC 15, for half damage). A proton pack can shoot 25 times before the fuel supply is depleted. One charge is used per round. Refueling a proton pack has a purchase DC of 13. Setting a proton pack to Containment requires a ranged touch attack. The Containment setting only works against undead and outsiders. This is an attack action that provokes attacks of opportunity. If the attack is successful, the target must make an opposed grapple check against the wielder's attack roll. If more than one proton pack is used on the Containment setting, each additional proton beam adds +2 to the roll, and the target is denied any dexterity modifier to Defense. The Containment setting is typically used to position a target over a ghost trap. Do not cross the streams: This process is extremely dangerous as it causes Total Protonic Reversal, which results in the molecules of any nearby person to explode at the speed of light. Information on this situation is sketchy due to the rarity of it ever happening, it has only occurred once where those participating have survived. Please refer to the case where the Ghostbusters fought Gozer for more details. Do not allow the pack to overheat: This in some ways is similar to Total Protonic Reversal, however on a more limited scale. It is however still extremely dangerous and it is rare for a person in the vicinity to survive a blast caused by overheating. If a proton pack runs for 25 rounds, using all of its charges continuously, the pack must make a Fortitude save or overheat in four rounds. The pack's explosion deals 20d6 points of fire damage to the wearer (no save allowed) and 10d6 points of splash damage to creatures and objects in adjacent 1000-foot radius (Reflex save, DC 15, for half damage).

A foot pedal attached to the box by a twelve-foot length of tubing opens the lid. Setting a trap is a move action that provokes an attack of opportunity. The ghost trap has been described as a miniature ecto containment unit. It utilizes the same basic design as its larger counterpart; a series of lasers designed specifically for the incarceration of spirits. A ghost trap can only contain one medium-sized incorporeal being or two small incorporeal beings. After the trap is set, it must be sprung, which is an attack action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. As it opens, the ghost trap produces a luminous white cone (10-foot long, 10-foot at its widest) of psychokinetic force that sucks the ghost into the trap. The ghost can resist being sucked into the trap with a successful Reflex save against a DC of 10 + 1 for every round the ghost spends in the traps' radius of effect. Note that ghosts who are grappled by a proton pack do not get a Reflex save. When the foot pedal is released, the trap closes. Do not look into the trap: Anyone looking directly into the trap must is automatically dazzled for 1d4 rounds or, if he fails a Reflex save (DC 15) blinded for 1d10 rounds. Do not overload the trap: Ghost traps are extremely small pieces of equipment, and can only contain a certain amount of PKE, even if it is from a number of small ghosts. The overloaded trap explodes if more than one ghost is captured in the trap, inflicting 3d6 points of fire damage to all within a 10-foot radius and releasing the ghosts. Also only a certain number of ghosts can be contained in a ghost trap.Do not forget to recharge the trap: This is extremely important, a ghost trap must be at 100% charge to work at peak efficiency. The trap also runs on a rechargeable battery that lasts up to 48 Hours. After 48 hours, a trap must make a Fortitude save each round (DC 20) or it explodes, inflicting 3d6 points of fire damage to all within a 10-foot radius and releasing the ghost(s) contained within.

The devices emits low subsonic waves and stimulates the nervous system to decrease any attacks that would affect the wearer's will or courage.While active, a move action to activate, the wearer gains a +3 Equipment bonus to Will saves against mind alter effects (suggestions, hypnosis, mind control, etc), fear effects and possession. Has enough battery power to last 4 hours.Size: TinyWeight: 1.5 lbsPDC: 18Arm Mounted Proton PackThis is a smaller version of the standard proton pack, mounted on the forearm, allowing the hand to be free except when the handle is held for use, and the power pack mounted on the upper arm and shoulder. This version was designed for use in close quarters, and easier transportation. Many Ghostbusters will have one stored in a vehicle as a back up unit.Due to the smaller size, this variant has shorter range, deals less damage and smaller ammunition supply (PDC 9). When not in use, the firing trigger and handle easily folds back out of the way, and when needed can be grabbed as a free action.Proton Pack, Arm Mounted (PL 5)Damage: 2d6Critical: -Damage Type: electrical/fireRange Increment: 50 ftRate of Fire: 1Size: LargeWeight: 5 lbsAmmo: 10 intPurchase DC: 27Notes: Containment Mode, Attack Mode, Do Not Cross The Streams, Don't Allow to OverheatBoson Proton PackThis is a variant proton pack that solely generates Boson darts, which damage powerful beings and disperse them into smaller components for easier containment. When a particularly large sized or larger non-corporeal being suffers damage from a Boson pack attack the entity must make a Fort save DC 15 or be dispersed into smaller pieces and is stunned for 1d4 minutes. These smaller pieces can be contained in multiple traps. If the entity makes its save, it is stunned for 1 round as its from is temporarily disrupted. Dispersed ghosts suffer -10 to their Reflex saves to resist being pulled into a trap, and proton packs set to containment modes gain +2 to their rolls, and each additional proton pack provides an additional +1.Proton Pack, Boson (PL 5)Damage: 3d6, 5d6 vs incorporeal Critical: -Damage Type: electrical/fireRange Increment: 70 ftRate of Fire: 1Size: LargeWeight: 13 lbsAmmo: 25 intPurchase DC: 27Notes: Containment Mode, Attack Mode, Do Not Cross The Streams, Don't Allow to OverheatWhen multiple traps are used to trap a large ghost, all of the traps used must be emptied into a containment unit within 8 hours or the trap will overload.Compact PackThis proton pack is smaller and lighter than the standard proton pack, as a refinement of the technology. However it is more expensive, and generally only issued to higher level Ghostbusters. The compact pack is compatible with the standard handheld particle thrower or the arm mount proton pack particle thrower to give it a larger payload and a boost in power similar to a standard proton pack.Proton Pack, Compact (PL 5)Damage: 3d6Critical: -Damage Type: electrical/fireRange Increment: 90 ftRate of Fire: 1Size: MediumWeight: 7 lbsAmmo: 30 intPurchase DC: 28Notes: Containment Mode, Attack Mode, Do Not Cross The Streams, Don't Allow to OverheatIf using the Arm Mounted Proton Pack arm unit, drawing the trigger is a free action, as is releasing it, allowing the hand to be used easily to hold items, and has the power and range of the standard proton pack.Ecto GogglesThese are night vision goggles that are modified to also see invisible beings. During normal light conditions they can be set to see invisible beings, but suffer -4 to Spot checks, and suffer -4 to Gaze attacks and bright light attacks, like flash bangs. They can be used as normal night vision goggles in dark conditions (see d20 Modern pg 116) as well as see invisible beings, suffering normal penalties as night vision goggles.Size: SmallWeight: 4 lbsPDC: 21Ghost LampA modified battery operated lantern that reveals all invisible incorporeal entities within its radius. Provides light to a 30 foot radius in the dark when used as a normal light. But when its special setting is activated, it reveals any invisible creatures (invisible only by supernatural, extraordinary or magical means, and via incorporeal) within 30 feet. It will also show an aura around corporeal beings that are possessed by another creature.Size: SmallWeight 5 lbsPDC: 17Ecto-Resistant VestA protective vest, based on sports equipment, provides some physical protection, such as being hit and thrown by an entity, but enhanced with material that repels incorporeal attacks.Ecto-Resistant VestType: Light, Semi-ImpromptuEquipment Bonus: +2, +5 vs incorporeal attacksNonprof.
