OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
The CY-L1 is a weapon designed for use by the C-Series battle droids modeled after the Patitite of Patitite Pattuna. It utilizes a comparatively large powerpack for its weapon size to create focused beams of light that burn through organic material with ease. The powerpack for this weapon is stored in a fabric backpack attached to the uses back via three straps; two shoulder straps and a waist strap. From the backpack is a braided power cord that connects the handheld emitter (two hands required) to the backpack. It is usable in most liquid environments such as aquatic worlds, but is only half as potent. It is also usable in the vacuum of space at full power.
Abuse is possible if the penetrating power of the CY-L1 is overstated in regards to use against metallic materials. This is very much an anti-biological weapon (fabric, plants, wood, flesh, bone, etc.).
- Intent: To create a standard weapon for the C-Series droids.

- 10 Beam Burst
- Rate of Fire: In a world of semi-automatic blasters this weapon can fire 10 individual beams of energy in the time it takes to shoot 2 blaster bolts.
- Searing: The weapon uses a needle thick beam of photons to burn away flesh and material. Against most biological material the beams are highly effective.
- Recoiless: The weapon utilizes not ionized gas but pure light focused by a series of lenses. This type of weapon would produce no recoil.
- Low Stopping Power: This weapon is not a blaster and works off of photons. There would be no weight behind the beams. Additionally the beams are the thickness of a needle with the penetrating power of just a few millimeters into most mundane metals.
- Reloading Method: The weapon sources power from a powerpack within a fabric backpack attached to the user by two shoulder straps and a waist strap. A cord connects the laser emitter to the backpack's powerpack. The powerpack must be completely removed from the backpack and a new pack place within before the weapon is able to reload.
- Tiny: The weapon was designed for use by Patitite and the C-Series droids made in their image. It is unsuitable to use by most species that are not of comparable size.
