Thorn

The  is an artifact found only in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Lost Alpha and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.:Shadow of Chernobyl.

"The result of the interaction between the anomaly Burnt Fuzz and the body of a careless stalker. The Spiker artifact pokes the body of its owner, no matter what. But it also helps clean the body of radionuliodes. Quite widespread and cheap."

- Inventory description

"Born in the 'Rusty Hair' and 'Ameba' anomalies. Quite common and cheap, but nevertheless, a very interesting artifact for both scientists and ordinary stalkers. Its main feature is to create a field with a radius of up to a meter, which hinders the movement of alpha and gamma particles. For a person this is not dangerous, but the need for food is reduced. Has no negative properties."
