Re: How do you build Wonder Woman's lasso?
Hum, I think mind control would be a big part. You are foced to tell the truth and no one can break out of it once caught. It has to be magic becuase even superman can not resisit it.
*Edit*
From wikipedia:
The Lasso of Truth is a fictional weapon wielded by DC Comics superheroine Wonder Woman, Princess Diana of Themyscira.
The Lasso was forged by the god, Hephaestus from the Golden Girdle of Gaea that was once worn by Antiope, sister of the future Queen Hippolyta. The Lasso itself is unbreakable, and is capable of confining even beings as physically powerful as Superman and Captain Marvel. Empowered by the Fires of Hestia, the Lasso forces anyone held by it to tell the absolute truth. The fires are said to even be able to cure insanity, as they did in the case of Ares, God of War, when he attempted to incite World War III, but renounced his plan when the Lasso showed him that such a war would destroy all life on Earth, including any potential worshippers he sought to gain from it.
According to some recent stories, the power of truth is innate to Wonder Woman, and the Lasso is merely a focus. This is a retcon. Originally, the lasso would force whoever was held to it to obey any command, not just telling the truth
