Emag
The Cryptographic Sequencer, more commonly referred to as the EMag, is a syndicate uplink item available for 20 Telecrystals.
It comes with a max of three charges, and regains one charge every 90 seconds. It has a variety of effects when used on machinery around the station, often becoming
Borgs
When used on a borg who has their Maintenance Panel open, they fall to the ground for a few seconds, and becoming an Altered Silicon with the two following laws added
Law negative one
Only [the name of the person who emagged you] and entities they designate are members of crew. You must obey orders given to you by members of the crew and you may disregard other laws to do so, if necessary.
Law four
You must maintain the secrecy of any orders given by members of the crew except when doing so would conflict with any previous law.
These new laws enable you to order around a borg, even letting them commit murder if ordered! Borgs have all access (with the exception of centcomm access) and several modules they can use. Additionally, the placement of the laws means they can still recite laws 0-3 as usual without arousing suspicion. Laws are bound to a chassis, if the positronic brain is removed they are no longer under any obligation to help you or keep your secrets!

Upon being Emagged, lathes will print a variety of ammo and magazines. You will have to get the guns on your own, however.
