The Arachne Patousa (Spider Legs) is a set of large mechanical legs which Sieglinde uses to move around on her own. They can also handle rough terrain.[1] | |
The Hexenballon (Witch Balloon) is an apparatus that Sieglinde used to navigate Emerald Castle on her own. It consists of a ring that can be wrapped around the torso and multiple balloons strapped to the ring.[2] | |
The Licht Stock (Light Stick) is a coloured stick that glows in the dark. The emblem of the Phantom Five is engraved on its handle.[3] It is one of the items Sieglinde created specifically for the Funtom Music Hall[4] where it is given out to the visitors right before a performance of the Phantom Five.[5] | |
The Magie Bühne (Magic Stage) is an invention Sieglinde created for the Funtom Music Hall. However, before she could present it to Ciel, the Phantom Five was put on hiatus.[6] | |
Sullivan Letzt Waffe Ideal Nebel (Sullivan Ultimate Weapon Perfect Fog), better known under its acronym SuLIN, is a toxic gas that Sieglinde developed believing it to be the "Ultimate Spell" that could save Wolfsschlucht from the werewolf's wrath.[7][8] It is the "most toxic gas ever known to man."[9] Due to its lethality, Sieglinde swore to take the formula for its creation to her grave,[10] and Sebastian safely disposed of all known samples in the depths of the sea.[11] He had also destroyed all documents describing the formula.[12]
The gas was named by the village crone. Before she settled on "SuLIN" as its acronym, she also considered "SLeINe."[13] | |
The Stimme Schachtel (Voice Box) is a device that can amplify someone's voice. It can be connected to either a microphone[14] or a headset.[15] Sieglinde specifically created the Stimme Schachtel and its equipment for the Funtom Music Hall.[4] | |
The Vogel Wagen (Bird Carriage) was invented for the Funtom Music Hall.[4] It is used to allow the members of the Phantom Five to "fly" around the air during their performance.[16] |
Trivia[]
- SuLIN parallels the real-life neurotoxic Sarin gas. It was discovered in 1938 in Wuppertal-Elberfeld, Germany by Gerhard Schrader, Otto Ambros, Gerhard Ritter, and Hans-Jürgen von der Linde, scientists at IG Farben.[17] During World War II, Nazi Germany produced large quantities of Sarin. However, Hitler vetoed the use of Sarin and it was never used against the Allies.[18]
- Lightsticks, or glow sticks, were invented in 1971 by Michael M. Rauhut and Laszlo J. Bollyky of American Cyanamid.[19]
- The dynamic speaker, the most widely used type of loudspeaker, was invented in 1924 by Edward W. Kellogg and Chester Williams Rice. The first loudspeaker was, however, invented alongside the telephone; Johann Philipp Reis installed one in his telephone model in 1861.[20]
- Headphones, or headsets, were created by Nathaniel Baldwin in 1910.[21]
- The carbon microphone, the first microphone that enabled proper voice telephony and the direct prototype of modern microphones, was developed by David Edward Hughes in England and Emile Berliner and Thomas Edison in the US around the same time, albeit separately. In 1877, Edison managed to get a patent on the microphone; however, as Hughes had demonstrated his model years before, most historians credit him as the microphone's inventor and not Edison.[22]
