X-Ray Lamp

The X-Ray Lamp is a very powerful hand-held device designed to repel or suppress entities that are sensitive to X-rays. It functions as a portable countermeasure: when activated it drives X-ray–sensitive Entities away or forces them into a suppressed state, and in some cases will cause them to turn and flee. The item is explicitly described as both able to "repel" and to "suppress," indicating it can produce either a deterrent or an interrupting effect on affected targets.

The lamp is strictly a close-range, personal-use tool rather than a permanent installation. Its portability makes it suitable for frontline encounters where a sudden, reliable method of neutralizing the threat posed by X-ray–sensitive Entities is required. Because its effect targets sensitivity to X-rays, the X-Ray Lamp specifically affects only those foes whose behavior or physiology is keyed to X-ray exposure.

• Portable hand-held device: designed for use by an individual operator in active encounters rather than for static defense.
• Primary effect: forces X-ray–sensitive Entities to retreat or become suppressed; documented outcomes include turning away and fleeing.
• Dual role: can be used defensively to create space and offensively to interrupt or neutralize enemy actions tied to X-ray sensitivity.
• Best deployment: employ when confronting targets explicitly identified as X-ray–sensitive; activating the lamp at close range yields immediate behavioral disruption.
• Interaction note: the lamp’s mechanics are centered on sensitivity to X-rays — it does not affect targets that lack that vulnerability.

No source material provides specific numeric ranges, durations, cooldowns, resource costs, or upgrade paths for the X-Ray Lamp; therefore operational details such as effective radius, lasting suppression time, and compatibility with other systems must be determined in-game or from dedicated mechanic references.
