Changes: Null Void Projector

Latest revision as of 10:17, 17 April 2024

This article belongs to the Classic Continuity

The Null Void Projector^[1]^[2], also known as Null Void Gun^[3]^[4] and as Dimensional Disrupter in the Generator Rex Universe is a device used to create a portal to the Null Void.

Models

The Null Void Projector has been gradually refined through the ages. The Mark I model was a large machine similar in appearance to the handgun, however it required time to recharge between intervals and could only be carried around in a Isuzu Forward due to its aforementioned size.^[5]^[6]

The most modern Null Void Projector is similar to the Mark I, except it takes less time to charge, allowing easy access to the Null Void.

The Null Void Projector can come in various sizes:

Most Null Void Projectors are small enough for a human to use.
The Mark I variant is big enough for Swampfire to get in and out of.
In Perfect Day, there was a Null Void Projector big enough for Four Arms and Vilgax to use (even though that was in a dream).

Along with different sizes, there are also different styles that the Null Void Projector can come in: in the Original Series, the projector was shaped and designed like a semi-automatic pistol with a trigger for the pointer finger to activate it. In Alien Force, the projector was designed like a hand-cannon with an icepick grip-type handle that required an individual to press a button with their thumb to activate it.

Uses

Null Void Projectors can be used to either open a portal to the Null Void^[7] or to teleport beings to the Null Void by hitting them with a beam cast from the Projector.^[8]

Null Void Projectors can be overloaded when their focusing lens is removed, allowing them to be used as impromptu bombs.^[8]

Trivia

Several Null Void Projectors lie in the interior chamber of Mt. Rushmore.^{[citation needed]}
Manny and Helen thought their Null Void Projector was a disintegrator ray until Kevin corrected them.^[6]
The Null Void Projector created by Caesar Salazar is named the "Dimensional Disruptor".^[9]
A much bigger version of the Null Void projector than the Mark I appeared in the game Vilgax Attacks, attached to the underside of the Chimeran Hammer.
The idea of the Null Void Projector sending criminals to the Null Void parallels that of the Phantom Zone Projector in the world of Superman and DC comics, which appropriately sends criminals to the Phantom Zone.

-The '''Null Void Projector''' is a powerful weapon that is used to transfer aliens to the [[Null Void]], a never-ending intergalactic jail (the Null Void isn't really an intergalactic prison, as seen in the episode ''[[Voided]]''). Several of the Null Void projectors lie in the interior chamber of [[Mt. Rushmore]]. It has been gradually refined through the ages; according to [[Kevin Levin|Kevin]], the Mk. 1 model was a large machine similar in appearance to the handgun, however it required time to recharge between intervals and could only be carried around in the trailer of an [[Wikipedia:Isuzu Forward|Isuzu Forward]] due to its aforementioned size. The most modern version is similar to the handgun one except it takes less time to charge, allowing easy access to the Null Void. It can also be overloaded when its focusing lens is removed, allowing it to be used as an impromptu bomb. It's a weapon commonly used by the [[Plumbers]].

However in ''[[Perfect Day]]'', it was big enough for [[Four Arms]] and Vilgax to use (even though that was a dream). Later, in ''[[Plumbers' Helpers]]'', the Mk I variant appeared and the only method of transport for it was an Isuzu Forward, and [[Swampfire]] could get in and out. Finally, in ''Vilgax Attacks'', it was almost as big as a section of Vilgax's ship.
-**And along with different sizes, there are also different styles that the Projector went through: in the original series, the projector was shaped and designed like a semi-automatic pistol with a trigger for the pointer finger to activate the projector. In ''Alien Force'', the projector was designed like a hand-cannon with an [[wikipedia:Icepick grip|icepick grip]]-type handle that required an individual to press a button on the top with their thumb to activate it. Due to the existence of both variations at the same time, one can assume that the S-AP variant was used exclusively for human Plumbers due to the familiarity of the handle configuration.
