Time Manipulation Device (Singularity)
The Time Manipulation Device, also known as the TMD, is a device that featured in the video game Singularity.
Overview
The development of the TMD came in the 1950's during the reign of the Soviet Union who commissioned a top secret government research program following the discovery of Element 99 and learning of its unique properties. One of the head scientists on the project was Doctor Victor Barisov who was involved with Project 6176 at the Katargo-12 island facility. After harnessing the power of E99, he was involved in test trial 143 of the Time Manipulation Device at the time. Through its power over time itself, the TMD was able to reverse the time flow allowing destroyed items to be reformed in a matter of moments or reverse the process and extensively age it into nothing but dust. It was later sealed inside his personal laboratory vault following Barisov's death and remained undiscovered for over fifty years.
In 2010, MIR-12 agent Kathryn directed Nathaniel Renko to Barisov's hidden vault in order to retrieve the device. During his journey, he uncovered a video recording by Barisov about his research that determined E99 was capable of changing the time state of atoms. After finding the chamber it was located, Captain Renko placed his hand in the glass sphere containing the floating pieces of the device. Once he did this, the machines inside activated and assembled the TMD on Renko's left hand allowing him to use its power. Kathryn later briefed Nathaniel Renko that he needed to use the TMD to travel back to 1950 in order to save Doctor Barisov since he was the only person capable of stopping the Singularity event. During the course of events, Captain Renko encountered numerous devices developed by Barisov that augmented as wel as modified the power of the TMD.
Its abilities included:
- Impulse : fires a burst of energy capable of sending individuals flying backwards.
- Gravity : manipulate the gravity of an object allowing the user to levitate it.
- Temporal State : manipulation of the time state of an object either regressing it to an earlier point or aging it till it withers to dust.
- Deadlock : creatures a sphere of chronal energy that slows down time in a set location.
- Reversion : this fires a burst of energy that turns a living being into a Revert; a twisting mutant version of itself.
Through the use of Amplification Platforms, the power of the TMD could be magnified to greater levels allowing it to manipulate time rifts and control the temporal process of massive objects like freighter ships.
