Stimtouch hosiery

Source book: Stolen Souls

Now, standard Stimtouch Hosiery is not designed or intended to deliver a tremendous shock to another person. They are designed to provide gentle sensations through the skin as well as alter the tint of the stockings as the wearer walks, creating a visually pleasing effect. Runners have modified this device to be able to deliver a debilitating shock to an unwitting subject. The only thing the wearer has to do is make sure they are wearing some form of protective augmentation underneath the hosiery (such as smartskin or altskin modifications) that can provide insulation against the electrical shock.
