Anti-Coagulant Box Cutter 
Caliber-XX weapon (knife) 

Designed for assassination missions, this weapon is an easy infiltration knife. Looking like a standard box cutter, it does not raise suspicion when entering a facility by goods entrances or if the agent is dressed as a delivery person. The box cutter itself is a knife, but when retracted in a certain way the anti-coagulant in the handle is spread on the blade, making even small cuts potentially fatal. The wound fails to stop bleeding, leading to exsanguination without treatment. 

The DC to stabilize an agent that has suffered damage from an anti-coagulant box cutter is increased by 10 if the total damage inflicted from it is under half their hit points, or raised by 20 if the total damage inflicted by the knife is more than half their hit points. Trick cards – Fingerprint Stealer, Keycard Imprint, Lockpick, Glow Light 

Trick cards can be excellent tools for infiltration and espionage, especially in covert situations. Some options include fingerprint stealers, keycards imprints, lockpick, and glow lights. 

- Fingerprint stealers scan the finger or thumb prints of the holder, allowing the dealer or magician to covertly copy the fingerprints of the player without arousing suspicion. 

- Keycard imprint cards will copy and become a clone of the magnetic strip information of any keycard or credit card they are pressed against, but are one use only due to the size of the cards themselves. 

- Lockpick cards break in two when pushed, folding out into two types of lockpick. These can then be folded back together when needed to seem like innocuous cards again. 

- Glow light cards snap in the middle, and when shaken emit a chemical glow for low-light situations, but can only be used once. Explosive Rats 

Explosive rats and mice were an idea used in the Second World War for sabotaging facilities and factories. Small, innocuous and often found in areas with heavy machinery, they draw little attention meaning they are perfect for time delayed bombs. They can be sewn out of scraps of material, if basic, or even made from taxidermized animals themselves.

Who wants to play a spy in their next game?! Black Cats Gaming has your six

A few years ago, we ran the Ultimate Spy Sweepstakes to find out who is categorically the best spy out there. Have there been any new contenders for number one? Was there an injustice that needs righting? Should we run it back?

[Excerpt from Agent notes]

...No such thing as Difficult Terrain for FREERUNNER, Climbing seems faster and to cost nothing extra too. Covers a large distance with jumping, must be Dexterous, no apparent disadvantage to Acrobatic skills...

Redact all the information you can. We will find your agents, no matter how far into the past we search.

A BACK ROOM DOCTOR? Let's hope your agents WALK IT OFF after being butchered by IMPROVISED TOOLS. Curious if she could FACE OFF against one of our medics, but NOT ON MY TABLE.
