Thanks for those pointers on the time traveller, guys! Fortunately for me, hands and eyes and stuff is no longer a concern because he has morphed into some sort of amoeblob jelly thing - I decided (a) blobs are much cooler than people and (b) people are much harder to draw, so there was only one possible conclusion 
He's also been joined by brown-furred four-armed snake kobold Yoda.
I'd call it nearly done, but if anyone's got any more recommendations, those would still be awesome!

My time travelling man continues! Lips are really weird and I don't like them, but other than that, it's going pretty alright, I think!

It turns out that electricity does not, in fact, work the way I thought it did! Also, it turns out science is hard because real life has friction and stuff. I've decided to switch the test from how amperage affects things to how the number of coils does the same.
I now have a new problem related to the project: I want to be able to leave the gun in the "on" position for several seconds at a time, for force measuring purposes. This is problematic because an electromagnet is essentially just a short circuit. This is okay if I were to only leave it on for less than a second, but for continual operation, I think it's probably bad. Especially because it's plugged into a wall outlet.
Edit: apparently I'm wrong, and electromagnets aren't actually just dead shorts, apparently they produce significant impedance as well. Who knew? Anyway, the question's still relevant because there's still lots of current.
With that in mind, my new question for all you fine folks is, if I reduce the amperage of the circuit, will that make it safe for operating longer? And along with that, what's the best way to do so?
Edit: to clarify, what I'm really asking is, is amperage the bad thing? As in, if I have low amperage but high voltage, will it still fry the wires?

But in turn, we must give him one as well. Don't die Sir Spicious. Ask him to be safe. Then...
Run. Run quickly. Run swiftly as if your life depends upon it because it does.

Hmmm... if Primordia is now Soul, and Soul must oppose Heart, and Heart supports Order, and Order opposes Chaos, then is Primordia on the Chaos side now?
And does this mean Primordia must oppose its new friends?
