poltergeist-in-the-jar-o
If somebody first produced a pistol, and then produced a rapier, you wouldn't be scared at all if you had this thing. It's an ordinary glass jar, containing a powerful, angry poltergeist. Open up this jar-o, and it's a whack for that daddy-o!

When Used
 Poltergeist-in-the-jar-o
|
| You screw open the lid of the jar, and are thrown to the ground with the force of the poltergeist's emergence. You can't see it, but you can certainly see its effects -- random crap starts rising from the ground and viciously pounding on your opponent, dealing 200-250 damage. After a few minutes of this, Craig T. Nelson breathes a sigh of relief as the poltergeist calms down and vanishes.
