Iella Renz
Sharpshooter

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
- Intent: To create a unique weapon for Iella to fight with
- Image Source: https://mathildaw.deviantart.com/
- Canon Link: Based on Nightsister Energy Bows
- Manufacturer: Personal/Iella Renz
- Model: N/A
- Affiliation: Iella Renz
- Modularity: No
- Production: Unique
- Material: Transisteel, plasma conductors
- Classification: Energy Bow
- Size: Large, handheld
- Length: 1.52 meters/5 feet
- Weight: 6.8kg/15lbs
- Ammunition Type: Plasma Power cell
- Ammunition Capacity: 20 shots
- Effective Range: Blaster sniper with extra range
- Rate of Fire: Single shot (time it takes for an experienced archer to draw a new arrow)
- Handle in the middle can be removed so that the bow's plasma string disappears (essentially "turning the bow off") this requires a button to be simultaneously pressed a few inches from the grip for safety
- The edge end of the bow's physical structure has points where excess plasma is discharged upon impact with anything, to a creature it would cause pain and minor distracting lacerations
- This energy bow, designed with extreme care, can shoot at ranges further than a sniper
- Super-concentrated plasma allows the bolts shot to deflect off of hard enough surfaces one time
- Can be double drawn (two arrows) but uses twice the amount of the plasma cell as a normal shot (ie, 1 shot = one charge, double shot = 4 charges)
- In order for the bow to reach its full power, it must be drawn and charged for a few seconds. Bolts will not deflect off of some surfaces if not fully charged.
- Slow fire rate makes close combat difficult
Iella's bow was crafted on Mygeeto using blue transisteel for most of the physical housing. Iella being a sharpshooter, bput her time and care into crafting a bow that does not break under extreme stress but handles freely to make precision shots. It has a very long range but takes a keen eye and steady shot to hit targets and extreme distance.
Side note: the main reason for this submission is to make it linkable, but I did want it to have a bit of extra "oomph"
