The '''"Medusa" Whip''' is a [[Clan]] [[neural whip]], also known as an electrowhip or "Seeker" whip.  The "Medusa" can deliver pain both as a normal whip or as a neural shocker thanks to a variable setting, ranging from producing a minor sting to a severe shock capable of causing nerve damage or stopping the heart.  The whip is also capable of "homing in" on its target through the use of a sophisticated sensor in the handle.  This sensor detects and interprets subtle gestures in the user's hand and sends that information along the length of the whip through a series of embedded [[myomer]] strands.<ref name="CEp8">''Combat Equipment'', p. 8, "Medusa Whip"</ref>
