Description[edit]
Radioactive Tracker Rounds are used for the covert tracking of individuals or objects. Fired from any slug-thrower weapon, these rounds hold an easily-broken capsule which contains a small suspension of harmless radioactive isotopes. On impact the quick-drying liquid splashes the target and marks them with the isotopes, iridium 191 being the most popular, which will give off traces of gamma radiation for a month unless properly cleaned. Detecting the trace requires special scanning devices, such as a Bug Scanner modified to detect gamma radiation, and a maximum range of 35 meters.[1]
