Crowbar
A Crowbar is a quick-response ECM ship designed to be used in case of an emergency to "pry" a more valuable ship out of a sticky situation. It is a specific fitting of the Tech I Caldari frigate, the Griffin. The fit is designed to be newbro-friendly (low skill requirements) and cheap (easy to afford and essentially disposable).

How to get one
A doctrine-fitted Crowbar costs approximately 1.5M ISK. If you can afford to have your own, they are usually available on corporate contract in the various campus home stations. In emergencies, if you need one, they can also be borrowed from the campus hangars. (If you don't have the required title to access a specific hangar, ask someone else in the campus for assistance.) If you lose your Crowbar in a QRF action, it should be eligible for reimbursement through the Ship Replacement Program.

Tactics
Fitting appropriate ECM Modules
If the pilot calling for help does so correctly, he should specify by what race/type of ship he is tackled, so crowbar pilots can refit into the appropriate jammers.
