The Tripwire Narcotic Trap is a deployable weapon that activates when a creature or player crosses its trigger zone. It releases a cloud of narcotic gas in a radius around the trap, applying torpor to anything caught in the effect. This makes it useful for capturing wild creatures without lethal damage or for defending a base against intruders by rendering them unconscious.
Place the trap on the ground where you expect movement, then trigger it by approaching the tripwire. Narcotic traps consume durability with each use and eventually break. They are not affected by creature immunity to standard poisons, making them effective against creatures that would otherwise shrug off tranquilizer rounds.
