Description
"The mysterious Monte-Black Capacitor, recovered 7 miles off the shore of the Halifaux Harbor, when a salvage ship contracted to investigate the sinking of the SS Monte and SS Black discovered it amidst the sunken wreckage. No bodies were found aboard either ship, nor did either show signs of cannon fire or battle damage, despite their respective nations being at war at the time.

Curiously, investigations into the cargo lists of both ships shows that neither the SS Monte nor the SS Black have any record of having the device (now known as the Monte-Black Capacitor) aboard at the time of their sinking.

The strange machinations of the Capacitor have thus far proven impossible to recreate. Through extensive study it has been deduced that the Capacitor functions as a sort of "battery" for the Virge Electrode, a large oar-like device which, when energized to the point of arc discharge, has been found to have a violently adverse effect upon most supernatural apparitions.

Despite obvious assumptions, the Virge Electrode has yet to be used against more corporeal persons, and may in fact be too fragile to successfully do so. (Though the exact durability of material used in it's construction has yet to be identified.)"
