Eldrad's Acid Injector Rod
A slender metallic rod approximately thirty centimeters long, its surface etched with faint glowing symbols that pulse intermittently. Eldrad wields it deliberately, tapping its tip against surfaces to release a concealed acidic medium that liquefies molecular bonds with deliberate precision. The rod’s design facilitates both extraction and controlled neutralization, its stored contents visible briefly through a narrow transparent window near the base where minuscule beads of yellow-green liquid swirl in suspension. Both The Doctor and Sarah recoil instinctively when Eldrad draws it, recognizing its lethal purpose—an instrument refined not just for destruction, but as a weaponized extension of Eldrad’s defiance and ancient authority.
