Volatile Storage will soon be open in all instances, and within you will find Junk Bombs for sale! These items allow you to weightlessly store 5 kinds of treasure system junk and use it as ammunition/shrapnel via a giant, perfectly safe explosion! The item may hold up to 30 of each item and each shot consumes up to 30 charges to deal damage to a target. For each item consumed, 1 cycle of damage is inflicted.

Volatile Storage is located in a driftwood shack on Copper Road.

Huge thanks to GM Ethereal for very timely and appreciated coding assistance on these.

Currently, the gizmo contains:
0 / 30 Chipped Bricks
0 / 30 Table Legs
0 / 30 Rusty Doorknobs
0 / 30 Moldy Bones
0 / 30 Tattered Cloths

It can work when held

Working on an example for you. Basically if you have 30 chipped bricks, the rat is getting hit 30 times.

The sputtering and hissing coming from PERSON’s iron gizmo reaches a crescendo when all suddenly goes calm. For a brief moment, it seems as though the iron gizmo has flamed out. Suddenly, PERSON’s gizmo lets loose a tremendous roar and bits of doorknob and smoke fly out towards a massive ratasaurus.
