The Parasite
Description:
The mechanism behind this weapon's operation was discovered quite by accident. At its heart resides a crystal of indeterminate composition, which alters a low-intensity light shone through it in a manner which has stumped our scientists. When asked how it works, they can only reply "it shouldn't". Anyway, the resulting beam of altered light is capable of literally sucking the life out of living organisms (strangely it also affects robots, but not plants) and returning it back up the beam, where travels back through the crystal and is infused into the wielder, actually healing wounds and making hair shiny and healthy-looking.
Furthermore, if the applied beam of light is of a particular wavelength, the effect changes slightly so that it leeches certain chemicals instead. This is particularly useful in the Tournament as it works with the special adrenaline used by competitors.
