Ultratech Sleep/Paralysis Agents

Sindri · 05-11-2014, 02:15 AM

A common thing in fiction is the use of injection of liquids or exposure to gases that cause sleep and/or paralysis safely. Even with nods to realism one sometimes encounters such as incapacitation being delayed some seconds or in some cases more when in combat and variable resistance making some people require larger doses and some react badly to it this is... challenging, to say the least, to realistically produce with modern technology.

So let's see how close we can get with ultratech. Ultratech has a few examples under Weaponry with sleep gas, paralysis gas and sleep poison and a couple more under Medical and Biotech with morphazine and possibly torpine. Biotech adds another version of torpine. What do people think of their realism?

Sleep gas is probably the winner here even though it isn't the highest TL option. What's a reasonable improvement for TL 9 things at TL 10? Or TL 9 or TL 10 things at TL 11 for that matter?
