Force Carriers

Force Carriers (known also by their ancient basic name Bosons) were subatomic particles with an integer spin that were responsible for transmitting various forces, including the four great forces and the living force, among others. Force Carriers could be manipulated through particle reactors to create artificial forces, although this was notoriously difficult and often dangerous.

Properties
Force Carriers had integer spin, which prevented them from existing in constant relationships with other particles, such as Leptons and Quarks. Force Carriers carried force by travelling in a straight line between other particles. The mass of the Force Carrier determined the range of the force and its speed of propagation, with more massive Force Carriers travelling slower and dissipating more quickly. Massless force carriers like the Photon and Graviton were able to travel at the speed of light, and had an infinite range. Force Carriers could occasionally travel through hyperspace of even create their own quantum tunnels.
