Thumper debuts in Red Rising as the signature non-lethal weapon of the Gray enforcers who police the Red mining clans beneath the surface of Mars.

As the rebellion ignites, the device becomes a stark symbol of caste oppression, its crackling presence underscoring the daily terror faced by Darrow and his people before the uprising spreads beyond the mines.
