Greetings and Salutations. I'd say the items you're looking for are in Dimension Book 3: Phase World Sourcebook. That's a problem depending on location. However, I'd imagine the items you're thinking of are the Web Gun (page 59) which fires out an MDC foam and has a separate spray as a solvent that removes it. As for a taser, there is a Stun Gun (page 62) which allows ONLY characters in armor to get a save (I take it without the armor there is no save attempt for the victim). Neither of these weapons deal any damage. Hopefully that helps. Have a nice day. Farewell and safe journeys.

Strap gun in aliens unlimited. Adapted to rifts probably be MDC straps.

It launches a grenade that upon impact shoots out a bunch of straps that wrap around the target and bond to eachother. Basically a techno version of the magic net, only better because they don't untangle unless you pour some special solvent on them.



Nural mace.

if you are refering to Dragon's Breath, it's not a stinky liquid. It's a really nasty shotgun round. While I have yet to run across a confirmed case of someone getting killed. It will give a man some nasty looking burns.

as far as Real Life Less lethal devices go I sugest that you check out the Department of Justice.

But I need a non lethal weapon? Any ideas? I remember a ranged non lethal spray/goo that incapacitated, but i can't seem to find it. Theres also a tazer style weapon, but I'd think it wouldn't work through armor.

Try looking in Aliens Unlimited book. They have a few 'less then leathal' weapons in the back with the other equipment.
