- Permissions: N/A
- Primary Source: N/A
- Manufacturer: Original Model: BlasTech Industries Customizations: Leenic Ellsil
- Affiliation: Leenic Ellsil
- Market Status: Closed-Market
- Model: RSKF-44 Heavy Blaster Pistol
- Modularity: Minor, able to swap between slug ammo and Power Cells. Simply requires the magazine to be swapped.
- Production: Unique
- Material: Durasteel, Blaster Parts, Wroshyr Wood
- Classification: Blaster Pistol
- Size: Large
- Weight: Very Heavy
- Ammunition Type: Power Cell or Slug
- Ammunition Capacity: Very Small (20 Power Cell shots), Extremely Small (8 slugs)
- Effective Range: Long Range (150 meters before accuracy and damage drop-off with both Power Cells and Slugs)
- Rate of Fire: Very Low
- Damage Output: Extreme
- Recoil: Low (Power Cells), Average (Slugs)
- Can change between Slugs and Power Cells with the simple swap of a magazine
- Has two barrels instead of one.
- Glow sights allow for aiming in dark areas
- High Stopping Power: Leenic has modified his RSKF to have higher stopping power than the typical blaster of its type, allowing for even more damage than previously possible
- Low Recoi: Due to Leenic making the barrel heavier than the original models, the "Ky'ram's Gaan" has much less recoil than other heavy Blaster pistols
- Heavyweight: Due to its naturally heavy weight (and Leenic's modifications) the "Ky'ram's Gaan" can deal very heavy blows if used as a mele weapon, often incapacitating or killing targets with one blow
- Slugs: In the event of an EMP or a target using personal shielding, the "Ky'ram's Gaan" can swap between Power Cells and Slugs by simply changing out the mag. This makes it (technically) immune to EMPs and able to bypass personal shielding.
- Loud: Even while using Power Cells, the "Ky'ram's Gann" is extremely loud when compared to other blasters. As such, its is not at all effective in stealth scenarios.
- Heavyweight: Although it is great for recoil removal and melee combat, the heavy weight of the "Ky'ram's Gaan" makes it more difficult to aim for long periods of time.
- Backfire: Due to the fact that it is modified, the slug function does not always work properly, and the weapon can jam during firing. A jam causes an internal explosion that will burn the user's hand and cause it to have to be field stripped to clear out the barrels and chamber.
- Small Magazine: Both the Power Cell and slug modes of this weapon have very small magazines, forcing the wielder to reload more often
The RSKF-44 heavy blaster was a model of heavy blaster pistol produced by BlasTech Industries that was of a two-barreled blaster design, firing two blaster bolts per shot. This increase in firepower allowed for it to hit harder than most other blasters, but decreased its ammunition capacity significantly.
Leenic Ellsil's custom RSKF-44, named "Kyr'am's Gaan" (Death's Hand in Mando'a), is a heavily modified version of the RSKF-44. It has a much heavier barrel than the traditional RSKF-44, allowing for less recoil when firing but also making it significantly harder to aim it for longer durations and throwing off the wielder's accuracy at long ranges. Alongside this, Leenic modified the Power Cell Cartridges of his pistol in order to significantly increase their firepower while significantly reducing the total capacity of the magazine as a whole. A third modification Leenic gave his pistol was the ability to hold slugs instead of Power Cells in order to be operable in situations where an EMP would disable his energy-based weaponry.
