Muah ah ah ah!Hero: Yep.Gun: 3..2..1..click.BBEG: Drat!  Curse you and your meddling kind!Hero: Yep.Clearly, that's compelling drama right there, and the finest writing I've ever writ. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Now if there's a way to project magnetic force, I'm keenly interested in knowing more.  One of the hardest things about my project is figuring out how to repurpose tech and science toward my setting.  The hardest part of that is finding non-lethal FX that I can use to solve problems, because killing the bad guy is surprisingly easy.</blockquote>
