V-world stealing device

Tad Thorean uses a device to steals Chiron's avatar code ^{(CAP: "There is Another Sky")}.

A V-world stealing device appears as a hand-held vacuum cleaner of a kind, capable of copying a user's avatar code and overlaying it atop another user's avatar, in addition to sucking-up a user's accumulated wealth.

Tad Thorean uses one such device as part of Vesta's plan to usurp Chiron's place in New Cap City ^{(CAP: "There is Another Sky")}.
