Solipsistic Staff

The Solipsistic Staff is the personal badge of office of Lio Convoy, marking his status as the Guardian of Order. The staff generates a field that prevents any who hold it from being seen by any recording device, and can disable any Cybertronian nearby if the owner wishes it. Ownership of the staff grants Lio immunity from Builder-related security checks. Or at least, it's meant to.

Fiction

Beast Wars: Uprising

Lio Convoy carried the staff with him during the cycles in which he attended a meeting with Eject, met Blackarachnia, joined the Resistance. During the 1924th Games at Dodecahex Arena, Lio used it to hide his presence until he assassinated Sonar, then used it to freeze everyone around as he instigated the Grand Uprising.

During the Uprising, the Staff was reforged into a sword, though it still retained its previous abilities. Lio carried it with him when he confronted the Builder Assembly, and then used it to infiltrate the Grand Mal, its abilities protecting him from the sights of the Vehicon hordes. Derailment

Notes

• Solipsism, from Latin solus, meaning 'alone', and ipse, meaning 'self', is the philosophical idea that only one's mind is sure to exist and that anything outside one's own mind is unsure; the external world and other minds cannot be known and might not exist outside one's mind.
