Notes

• Useful to detect radiation of yourself and radiation around you.
• If you detect radiation, you can take Potassium iodide tablets before exposure to reduce the amount of radiation you are irradiated by.
• Or you could wear a Hazmat suit or other piece of clothing that increases your rad resistance.
• Useful if you have Prussian blue tablets on-hand to cure radiation.
• Those already mutated by radiation will need purifier or royal jelly.
