Scalar Boson Rod

Level 9

This extremely rare iotum contains a flux of scalar particles that affect fundamental fields and transdimensional applications. A scalar boson rod appears as a rectangular metallic case about 3 feet (1 m) long and 8 inches (20 cm) wide and deep, in which countless tiny particle rods shimmer.

History & Usage

Everyday use

Scalar boson rods don’t usually contribute directly toward a numenera device’s function; however, each one used as an additional component of a crafting task reduces the reactive field produced by installations to one-tenth its normal size.
