Interference
About
Interference is an entity that is triggered by the use, activation or in some circumstances existence of an object that will disrupt the measurable and observable properties of its surroundings. An example of the effects of interference is the aftereffect of an EMP... something used to knock out Earth based electronics during warfare.
Specifications
Interference is measured by the following:
Strength: 0.0% to 100.0%
Type: Electromagnetic, Optical, Subspace, Gravitational
