Special Containment Procedures
The object is currently contained in Dr. Ratchet's office.

Description
KCP-014 is a large, round, clear glass ball with the internal structure of a human skeleton. It appears to have been made of glass, but the surface of the ball is covered with tiny, raised, circular pockmarks that are visible under magnification. KCP-014 was discovered in August 2009 during an excavation of a Russian village.

When interacted with, the ball emits an icy cold static charge that overpowers electronics. This allows the user to shoot electrical bolts of energy, similar to the bolts shot from an Electro-Cannon. KCP-014 is also able to drain electrical current from computer screens or other electronic equipment.

Details: KCP-014's laser-like lasers appear to be made of a slightly translucent glass or clear plastic material, though the source of its power is not known.

Manufactured by a mysterious corporation.

Product Description: The exterior of KCP-014 is heavily ornamented with golden engravings, symbols, and Arabic numerals. The words "Ikhlas" (Arabic for "solitude"), "Nabi", "Karkan", "Shams-e-Zaman", "Akbar", and "Athar" (Arabic for "the light of God") are written in Arabic in gold on the left side of the ball. The interior of the ball is completely bare and is filled with a soft, yellow-orange glow. During the day, KCP-014 appears to be merely a black and white sphere, but under ultraviolet light it can be clearly seen to be filled with tiny, red spheres, each about half the size of a blood cell, surrounded by smaller, orange balls. The primary source of the orange color is the concussive charge that is generated by the glowing artificial skeletal structure of KCP-014 when it interacts with living matter. The red glow is the result of electrical leakage from the pulsating red balls.

When a living being touches the glass, a protective force field forms between the person and the exterior of KCP-014, causing the balls to stop emitting electricity. To a person's eyes, the fields look like normal, reflected sunlight. The person is permanently locked in a state of "solaris," which allows him or her to shoot electrical bolts of energy from their hands, similar to the bolts shot from a Psychosomatic cannon. This ability was unknown to the victim prior to the encounter, and is unknown even to the victim himself or herself.

The force field and interior of the ball do not appear to be strong enough to prevent the balls from leaking into the ball's interior. In the event of an electrical accident, the balls will explode, releasing an intense burst of greenish-yellow static.

Note: If KCP-014 is crushed, all of the white balls will fly out of the ball at once, but there is no telling how many you will be able to catch. If you can keep them in hand, though, you can release more of the static discharge as a shock.
