Chiss Charric Scattergun
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
A standard charric scattergun created for use within the Chiss Ascendancy, which utilizes advanced maser-particle firing systems that fires blue beams, and includes cooling materials to avoid overheating. Unlike standard blaster weapons, the charric bolts offer increased thermal and kinetic damage, as well as electrical shock to non-insinuated metallic armors, and are unable to be reflected by lightsabers. Additionally, the enormous impact per bolt allows for opponents defending with deflection capable weapons to be physically worn down with repeated attack, with some Jedi and Sith even outright losing their grasp on lightsabers.
Due to the improved nature of the bolts, the weapons accuracy is very high. Due to the higher particle and kinetic energy of each bolt, the effective range has been improved, but the ammunition capacity has been decreased - compared to standard blaster rifles of a similar type. Also, the maximum range for a charric weapon is shorter than other standard blaster rifles, and this loss over distance can be dangerous if unaccounted for during combat, and should be kept in mind at all times by Chiss soldiers.
All in all, the CSG-03 Chiss Charric Scattergun is a reliable weapon capable of providing a short range shotgun-like weapon for the soldiers of the Chiss Ascendancy.
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
- Intent: To create a generic charric scattergun for the growing Chiss Ascendancy Armory.

- Restricted Missions: N/A
- Primary Source: Light Repeating Blaster
- Manufacturer: Chiss Ascendancy
- Model: CSG-03
- Affiliation: Chiss Ascendancy
- Modularity: Yes; optional bipod and/or power generator pack and other modular attachments made for Charric weaponry.
- Production: Mass-Produced
- Material: Durasteel, ostrine barrel and chamber, heat sinks, maser-particle firing components
- Classification: Chiss Charric Scattergun
- Size: Average
- Weight: Average
- Ammunition Type: Power pack
- Ammunition Capacity: 25 (power pack), 10 (EM-Charge)
- Reload Speed: Low
- Effective Range: Low
- Rate of Fire: Low (Semi-Automatic)
- Stopping Power: Very High
- Recoil: High
- Charric blaster bolts utilizing maser-tech
- Ostrine & heat sink components allow for effective suppressive fire
- Very accurate
- Electric shock to metallic armors
- Unable to be reflected by lightsabers
- Charric blaster bolts offer both thermal and kinetic damage, and carry enormous impact per bolt - especially against lightsabers or deflecting weapons.
- Very accurate weapon, due to the improved firing systems of Charric weaponry compared to standard scatterguns.
- Metallic armors receive an electric shock with each hit, capable of disrupting the wearer briefly if not protected against such damage.
- Fires several shots grouped close together to overwhelm shields by raw damage.
- Charric bolts are unable to be reflected by lightsabers, resulting in increased difficulty defending when under fire from this type of weapon.
- Shot pattern makes the weapon unpredictable at a longer range. Firing at a far range risks hitting unintended targets.
- Insulated metallic armors will not be affected by electric shock per bolt, making that bolt attribute redundant.
- Recoil is higher than standard scatterguns, due to kinetic discharge per bolt.
