High Power Energy Discharge Device

The High Power Energy Discharge Device, also known as the H.P.E.D.D refers to a family of weaponry used by many of the groups of interest that the Institute has come into contact with. In the majority of designs, an extremely large dose of energy is discharged, causing immense damage to any anomaly or non-anomaly in the radius.

Designs and Uses
H.P.E.D.Ds consist of two major designs, a smaller version to be held by a single or multiple persons, and a turret variant, usually placed in important areas to halt an anomaly's escape. HPEDDs are capable of heavily damaging entities, making them greatly useful in the recontainment or elimination of anomalous entities.
