A friendly reminder regarding spoilers!

Therefore, please be courteous to other users who may not be aware of current developments by using the {{spoiler}}, {{spoilers}} OR {{majorspoiler}} tags when adding new information from sources less than six months old (even if it is minor info). Also, please do not include details in the summary bar when editing pages and do not anticipate making additions relating to sources not yet in release. THANK YOU

A displacer was a weapon invented either by the Romulans or the Ferengi secret police.
Banned in the Federation as a torture device by the year 2368, the whiplike instrument carries painful voltage, concussive air displacement, and an AI capable of directing its attacks if the wielder so desires. It is believed to have originated from a design called the viper used by the Romulans until 2320. (TNG novel: War Drums)
