Description[edit]
The Farmer's Best Friend cattle prod from Wattz Electronics was originally purposed for herding cattle before the war. After the bombs fell, humans quickly found that by wrapping a coil around it and hooking up some batteries, it makes a good semi-lethal weapon.
d20 Modern Rules[edit]
The weapon can be set to either deal 1d4 lethal damage or 1d8 non-lethal damage. This decision must be declared before making an attack roll.
On a successful critical hit, the target must make a Fortitude save equal to the damage dealt or fall unconscious for 1d4 hours.
