  • Canister is a form of shot fired by a cannon. A thin-walled metal cylinder filled with lead balls packed in sawdust, on firing the cylinder disintegrates, and the balls spread out as a very effective anti-personnel weapon. The balls are larger than the musket ball size of grapeshot.
  • The Canister can be found in both the Tediz, and SHC Base. However, players can only grab the enemy's canister in their base. If the player brings it down to the Sewer Area, it will trigger an alarm. After a five second countdown, the doors to the sewer area will close, anyone outside of it will be killed, unless they grabed a Gas Mask in either base.

  • On March 3, 1986, Marty McFly found a canister in Doc's secret lab and used it to send a letter to Doc Brown. The letter let Doc know that Doc's wife Clara had sent Marty a letter from 1893, via several generations of Western Union, letting him know that Doc had disappeared into the future. When Doc discovered the letter in his secret lab in 2035, he was confused since he wasn't in trouble. However, shortly afterward he lost his memory by an electric jolt shot by Officer Griff Tannen. Amnesiac and confused, Doc found Marty's letter, and went to the location and time specified therein.

  • A Canister is a small container created out of glass and puresteel. Inside, it is filled with magically perturbed essence. A canister can be broken, in which the essence climbs out and modifies the breaker, physically and psychologically. Usually, the effect of the canister is beneficial to the user due to the essence being modified for a certain change. They can be thought of as a mini-Geneforge; however they're less powerful than it but more specific. Presumably, the canisters were invented by the Shaper Danette or her colleagues in Sucia Island, around the same time that the Geneforge was also invented. The mechanics of the canisters (the process in which the genetic code of the user is modified) seems to be similar. There are benefits to be earned from these. The first canister used in the series upgraded the user's Firebolt spell. Other canisters increase other magic spells, while some increase the shaping skills of a user. Rarely, one would find a canister that upgrades a certain skill, such as Mechanics or Melee Weapons. The four basic skills even have corresponding canisters. In Geneforge 5, probably due to the advances of canister creation by the Rebels, canisters can upgrade an ability twice. An overlying theme of the use of the canisters was the side-effects of them. This comes in the form of psychological changes, such as arrogance, uncontrollable anger and megalomania. Glowing skin has also been described. These traits are analogous to those in the intelligent, shaping creations. By Shaper law, canisters are illegal; the reason being is that knowledge and power must be gained through deeds, not shaped purposely. In almost every Geneforge game, players that excessively use the canisters are given exception by Shapers not to be killed, unless it is a game ending. With the exception of Geneforge 1, the ending changes depending upon whether the player uses only a few canisters or uses many of them. In Geneforge 1, the game assumes that the character will use canisters and the ending refers to their excessive use even if the player finishes the game without using any of them.

The letter let Doc know that Doc's wife Clara had sent Marty a letter from 1893, via several generations of Western Union, letting him know that Doc had disappeared into the future. When Doc discovered the letter in his secret lab in 2035, he was confused since he wasn't in trouble. However, shortly afterward he lost his memory by an electric jolt shot by Officer Griff Tannen. Amnesiac and confused, Doc found Marty's letter, and went to the location and time specified therein. Once he regained his memory, Doc gave Marty a bag of canisters, telling him to leave a note in a canister in his secret lab if he is ever in trouble. On April 14, 1986, Marcus Irving broke into Doc's secret lab and left a note in a canister. Marty found the note, and came face to face with Irving. He revealed that, after his time travel project was terminated by the United States military, he used an inexpensive Yugo GX to create a partially working time machine. On April 15, 1986, Marty used the canister system to send Doc another letter. Irving had unnerved Marty, by telling him that the other versions of himself from different timelines still exist in alternate dimensions. Marty wrote the letter to Doc to get his help, but when Doc arrived, Marcus used this to his advantage. While Doc and Marty were talking, Marcus secretly removed the tires from the DeLorean time machine, and used Doc's flux capacitor to solve his problem with flux energy, which was the final step needed to allow his Yugo time machine to travel through time.
