A primary
tool of the discerning
supervillain, construction of these
deadly weapons involves exposing a pair of rare
OmniRubies to high levels of
cosmic radiation. Once active, the
rubies may be placed into a
framework which is worn over the
eyes. It is strongly advised that you work out some
alternate vision plan, perhaps
AtomoVision or the
mystic Crimson Eye of Vengeance, since the
radiation from the rubies will quickly destroy the soft tissue of the
eyes. The
beams which
emanate from the OmniRubies may be triggered
manually, but
maximum effectiveness is achieved by wiring a
trigger from the
goggles through the
optic nerve directly into the
brain.
Only the very strongest of
structures can
withstand even a single
blast from the
Omni-Beam Goggles, and the average
human is even more
fragile. Unfortunately, any
flaw in your
artificial vision can lead to an
inconvenient reduction in
accuracy, allowing
innocent bystanders,
incompetent henchmen, and
stalwart heroes to escape your
fury. Even more frustrating are those
disgusting do-gooders who can stand up to your attacks, either through
powerful armor or through
freakish
metahuman powers -- luckily, they can usually be
worn down through repeated
exposure to the
Omni-Beams.
