About: Type 78 Nerve Stimulation Unit   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

It has been noted, that if the electrodes were focused around nerves in certain clusters, like the base of the skull, middle of the back, hands an other sensitive areas, the Type-78 could be used as an interrogation and torture device. Mid to High level bursts of electricity through the electrodes directly stimulated pain receptors in the body. Due to traditional forms of punishment overwhelming the nervous system, after a time the brain ceases to feel anything. However, the type-78 could continually shift the stimulation from one nerve cluster to another, keeping the subject in a constant state of discomfort.

  • It has been noted, that if the electrodes were focused around nerves in certain clusters, like the base of the skull, middle of the back, hands an other sensitive areas, the Type-78 could be used as an interrogation and torture device. Mid to High level bursts of electricity through the electrodes directly stimulated pain receptors in the body. Due to traditional forms of punishment overwhelming the nervous system, after a time the brain ceases to feel anything. However, the type-78 could continually shift the stimulation from one nerve cluster to another, keeping the subject in a constant state of discomfort. The upsides of using the device this way, was that due to the units medical nature, it could never deliver lethal damage. No matter how much pain the individual felt, or how high the dial was turned, the device would always fall short of delivering fatal electrical shocks. As the Templars were not into killing their prisoners, no method of removing the failsafe existed. Another upside, is that dispute all the electrical shocks, there was no way to create permanent physical damage, short of a tingling or numbing sensation that would leave over time.
