I'm working with my dear friend Kira to make some basic self-defense weapons for the members. We're starting with powerful tasers, as those are easy and quick to make with the materials at hand.
I'm hoping we can soon enough have some variety of laser-based sidearm available to those who have appropriate training. Our society was quite advanced technologically, so I'm certain it won't be long until a prototype is available.
Another consideration is making our own communication system, separate from the network which is manned by the Wardens. I haven't quite had time to sketch out the details as yet.
