A Stunner is a general term for a science fiction weapon that is designed to temporarily impair the motor and/or cognitive functions of a living being, usually by rendering it unconscious, but otherwise unharmed. The most famous examples of this kind of weapon include: *Phasers in the ''Star Trek'' franchise which can be set to stun an opponent with variable severity. *Stunners in the Vorkosigan Saga by Lois McMaster Bujold which causes a temporary reduction in nerve activity within a radius of the impact site. *Stunners in the ''Solar Queen'' series by Andre Norton which disrupt the motor function, although leaving the shot person conscious. *The Wraith of ''Stargate Atlantis'' use stunners to capture humans alive, in order to feed on their life energy. *Also in ''Stargate Atlantis'', Ronon Dex's personal energy pistol can be set to two settings: stun and kill. *''Stargate SG-1'' *In ''Battlefield Earth'', Psychlo weapons are basically two-in-one, with one barrel firing destructive shots and the other emitting green pulse that stuns and knocks the target back. *In the novel Dune stunners are projectile weapons whose pellets knock out their targets. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stunner (weapon)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
