The "Gleipnir" device


The so called "Gleipnir" device, or Nomad disruptor, is a counter measure developed by the MND in the year 819 A.S. to counter the Nomads and infested humans. The device is capable to temporarily interrupt or completely disable the ability of a Nomad Incubus to gain full control over its host. It was based on readings and information they were able to acquire from studying captured Nomad incubi who have been separated from the mindshare during the Nomad war. The device releases sonic frequencies in omnidirectional paths, though the range is unknown. The frequencies block the specific portions of the Nomad incubus, which allow them to use their special abilities such as telekinesis and telepathy, as well as cutting them from their host or even from the hivemind. Effects heavily dependent on the capabilities of the incubus. Tests have shown, the device is not always reliable. The Nomads are, however, able to overcome the device after some time, although it is still able to negate their abilities long enough to take them out while powerless.
