Sparkler

Carl's low-power distraction charge — a hob-lobber's wick and fuse that showers stinging sparks with little noise.

Story so far

Sparklers are the minimal explosives Carl invents while trying to make lower-powered charges — just a Hob-Lobber's wick and fuse, dealing almost no damage and little sound but spraying stinging sparks for about five seconds. He tosses one through Donut's Hole to startle the catacomb guards before Louis's knockout spell lands.
