With all the cool technology that exists in this setting, I think a cool weapon for those in the Sanctuary Watch would be a Stun Stick: A club with on hit Daze that does minimal damage or something similar.  Sorta like a tazer. Seems to fit the setting well imo.

I wouldn't enjoy the steampunk aspect of the server getting out of hand. I think these gimmicky things of technology should be reserved for the Spellguard and their auxiliaries, not a commodity amongst the more mundane people of Sanctuary.

Agreed. Would be a neat thing for the Spellguard to have, perhaps, that the Watchers might petition to gain access to.

I've been using a rolling pin as my truncheon since I joined The Watchers. If anything, I would rather have access to a proper truncheon than a tazer. I like your thinking, however.

Pretty sure an item like this already exists as some kind of quest / DM loot. At least, I used to own one in the old Chapter 1 UD setting that I, ahem, "inherited" from one of core's Watch PCs.

I agree that they should not be just handed out to Watchers willy-nilly, as the Watch already has some pretty sweet advantages while in Sanctuary. They don't really need anything to make them more powerful than they are. It is, however, a nice thing to use as a reward for good Watch PCs.
