OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
An inevitable miniaturization of an already well known weapon, the so called Nightsister Energy Bow Pistol is only called such due to its Technology having a ninety five percent commonality with the much larger example. Despite having their name attached to the weapon, Individual Nightsisters have only barely begun to adopt it's use, though it is quickly finding a niche with various other wizarding types who need a low maintenance but powerful Emergency weapon that isn't too hard to figure out, as well as with various Assassins seeking a quiet, untraceable weapon due to often being made from spare parts. Not an invention of actual Nightsisters, the weapon was developed (and proliferated by) Maple Harte in secret, and often made high quality examples to support herself at times. An original example by Maple Harte is incredibly rare and are often difficult to identify as hers.
- Intent: To create a pistol version of the Nightsister Energy Bow

- Canon Link: N/A
- Permissions: N/A
- Primary Source: Nightsister Energy Bow
- Manufacturer: Maple Harte (Various. Can be made by anyone in a Garage with the right tools)
- Affiliation:
Maple Harte
, Open - Market Status: Open-Market
- Model: N/A
- Modularity: Yes (Can accept various after market parts but will require new subs beyond Scopes, Gunstocks)
- Production: Mass-Produced
- Material: Durasteel, miniaturized Energy Bow Components
- Classification: Energy Crossbow Pistol
- Size: Small
- Weight: Light
- Ammunition Type: Power cell (Recharging)
- Ammunition Capacity: Very Low | 9 shots ( Recharging power cell)
- Effective Range: Average (300 meters)
- Rate of Fire: Very Low
- Damage Output: High
- Recoil: Low
- Recharging Energy Cell means pistol never truly runs out of ammo
- Damage can Switch from Standard, to Ion, to Incendiary, to Cryonic
- Highly customizable--can be fitted with scopes and gunstocks
- Technology from Bowcasters causes bolt to ricochet off surfaces, allowing user to potentially fire around corners.
- Much quieter firing sound than normal, making only a quarter of the noise level an ordinary blaster pistol makes
- Quiet Riot: Much quieter firing sound than normal, about only a quarter the level of sound an ordinary blaster pistol makes it a desirable weapon for assassins
- Range: An astounding range for a weapon this size at 300 meters
- Yondu: Super accuracy
- Modular: The finest made examples at their absolute limit are at default capable of firing not only the standard pink bolt, but a light blue ion bolt, a fiery orange incendiary bolt, to a white colored Cryonic bolt, and can be fitted with various scopes and stocks, with more powerful upgrades requiring new subs. While the multi damage type features and standard accessories are more commonly found in professional grade models, a talented amatuer with the right tools can recreate these effects. Can also be decorated, made with luxury materials
- Rechargeable: The recharging power cell, taken from a DC-15s Sidearm Blaster Pistol ensures it never runs out of ammo
- In a CAVE, with a box of SCRAPS!: Can be made in virtually any garage with common welding tools due to its simplistic construction and material requirements
- Fire Rate: Needs five seconds after every firing to properly cool down and avoid damaging the internals
- Shot Capacity: Only nine shots
- Recharge time: takes 14 seconds to fully recharge A lot can happen in that time. Also, the recharge process doesn't start until initial ammo is fully expended
- Quality may vary: While so simple to build the fact remains individual examples may very much reflect their status as garage built weapons: While talented amateurs and professionals can produce all special features listed in the sub, amateurs may only be able to produce the basic firing effect and no special damage types, number of shots may be lower than listed, recharge time may be longer or in fact may run on disposable power cells, have very slow firing rates and poorer range, and may not even be any more quiet than a regular blaster pistol
- Switch time: It takes three seconds for internal circuits on high quality examples at default to switch between their multiple damage types
