Heat-Ray

rdfs:comment

The Heat-Ray is the primary weapon used by the Martians in H. G. Wells' novel The War of the Worlds. Heat Ray, also knows as Atomic Ray and Thermal Ray, is a technological equivalent of the Flare spell. It deals high fire-based damage to all targets. It is usually the weapon of Giant-type enemies, be they technological or magical in origin. The Heat-Ray is the Martians' primary offensive weapoera-type box with a circular mirror attached to one of the Tripods tentacles. It was the first device to be made operational when the Martians arrived on earth, and is therefore probably capable of being detached, and operated separately from a fighting machine if needed, although the two are always shown together after the first fighting machine appears. The effect of the ray is as follows

The Heat-Ray is the primary weapon used by the Martians in H. G. Wells' novel The War of the Worlds. The Heat-Ray is the Martians' primary offensive weapoera-type box with a circular mirror attached to one of the Tripods tentacles. It was the first device to be made operational when the Martians arrived on earth, and is therefore probably capable of being detached, and operated separately from a fighting machine if needed, although the two are always shown together after the first fighting machine appears. The effect of the ray is as follows "Then it was as if an invisible yet intensely heated finger were drawn through the heather between me and the Martians, and all along a curving line beyond the sand pits the dark ground smoked and crackled". The Heat Ray is also described as "A generator of intense heat in a chamber of practically absolute non-conductivity. This intense heat they project in a parallel beam against any object they choose, by means of a polished parabolic mirror of unknown composition, much as the parabolic mirror of a lighthouse projects a beam of light.". The only visible element of the ray in the book is a bright white flash emitted from the box chamber while the ray is fired. This is usualy changed for other media Heat Ray, also knows as Atomic Ray and Thermal Ray, is a technological equivalent of the Flare spell. It deals high fire-based damage to all targets. It is usually the weapon of Giant-type enemies, be they technological or magical in origin.
