After using the device's camera to "scan" yourself, the device will extend a tiny needle from its headphone jack, and instruct you to deposit a DNA sample. Pricking your finger with the needle, will cause it to retract, and after a moment of displaying "Analyzing..." the device prompts you to describe the affliction to be repaired. Once Described, the item dispenses from its charging port an amount of green-grey putty with the instruction "Please apply to affected area, and remain still." Applying the putty will cause it to animate, forming the understructure of whatever missing or damaged tissues are present (for internal battle scars, it seeps into the pores and can be felt moving inside the body.) The putty is a mass of loosely connected nanites, which set to work reconstructing the affected tissues and organs over the course of an hour as the device displays "Nanotic reconstruction in progress. Do not move", until "Repair Complete!" and cheerful smiley face appear on screen. The battery indicator on the screen will then decrease by 33%. This indicator will charge by 33% each day. Any attempt to use the device at below 33% will result in an "Insufficient charge" message.
With his Mind/machine interface in place, Doctor Lazcowicz is now experimenting with new functions. In this case, after extruding a small number of nanites into an existing computer, smartphone, or smartwatch he can use them to reconstruct the internals of the device. Enhancing onboard cameras into medical scanners and using the raw materials of the circuit boards within to construct a nanite factory, the device now acts as a controller and dispenser for specialized nanite piles that will reconstruct scarred and damaged body parts at a cellular level to make them good as new! Sadly the device's original functions are no longer present, but this is a great way to recycle ewaste!

A brass lighter with the Napoli sign flicks open, flame sparking, then snaps shut with a sharp click.
The sound echoes. A garbage truck roars to a halt nearby. Its doors swing open. Out steps Roccos crew in sharp suits, cold eyes, each wearing a crafted token of loyalty.
The signal was lit.
It’s cleanup time.
Those entrusted with the sign of the Napoli family swear more than loyalty they bind themselves to the foundation that holds the family strong. Before the lighter is passed on, the oath is spoken:
"I stand with the Family, in shadow and in fire. I raise no hand, voice, or will against the heart that keeps us whole. I keep what must be kept, cleanse what must be cleansed, and serve what endures.
What is given to me, I hold for us; where I walk, I walk for us; what I claim, I claim in our name.
In doubt, I turn first to kin; in danger, I stand where we stand; and in all things, my steps remain known to the Family, as my hands remain open to them."
Only those who speak these words truly earn the right to carry the lighter. When sparked and sealed, it calls the crew. The truck arrives. Equipped with the finnest weapons (Automatic) .mess is handled. No hesitation.

With effort, and time, Hudson can create a special rifle bullet which tears the flesh much more than is standard. In addition to bypassing armor as a regular round does, it shreds it as well, leaving gaping wounds in the armor of targets....and if a target finds themselves soft and unprotected, they are quickly destroyed.
Cherry Rounds are visually similar to the .950 JDJ, only made by Hudson in a custom press.
