OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Sahan Dragr brought this handgun to Corbin Vasher for modifications, personalizing it to better fit a Mandalorian bounty hunter. It sports tighter handling, boosted range and fire rate, and packs a bit more punch as a result. Condensed-matter composite even absorbs some of the kinetic vibration when firing, slightly reducing the recoil. FACTS gel seals the weapon, protecting it from environmental damage, such as sand, dirt, or water. This effectively erases one of the major design flaws of the original. A variety of the materials introduced in the modification provide substantial protection from ion damage and EMPs. It is generally very difficult to obtain specialized ammo for this handgun (perhaps maybe able to find one magazine now and then), though standard slugs work decently enough.

Verpine Shatter Gun: As with most Verpine Shatter Gun platforms, the 'Vora' is capable of delivering extreme amounts of kinetic damage with a minimally weighted round. Even with minimal training, a relatively untrained user of the handgun would be able to fire with excellent accuracy at a great distance given their control of the heavy status of the weapon. This makes it an excellent weapon for personal security, officers, and mainline sidearms for regular infantry. In addition, its nearly soundless design and deadly precision make it an excellent choice for would be assassins and killers across the galaxy. Given only a moment's notice, and the proper aim, a murder could be committed with minimal effort or attention brought to the area of the crime. Truly an excellent handgun for the ages.
-
Smart: Using technology borrowed from an infamous flechette pistol, the Vora incorporates a miniature laser tracking system that tagged the target with an electronic homing signature. This enables the weapon's pellets to track and follow the target's movements, adjusting mid-flight. These electronic homing signals are capable of being linked together through the wearer's HUD (if worn), and shared with allies.
-
Potent Payload: Because of a specialized ammunition produced by Jaeger Solutions and associates, the 'Vora' is capable of firing not only kinetically damaging rounds, but rounds that hold a number of sick deliveries intended to murder or stun. From nerve gas to flashbang rounds, the tactical modularity of even its offensive capabilities make this an excellent choice for mainline troops and special forces alike.
- + EMP/Ion Protection
-
Cumbersome: It's a rather unwieldy firearm for most organic beings and can often result in hand-arm fatigue when operated for long durations. Close quarters combat with the Vora isn't a recommended tactic.
-
Time to Track: When utilizing the tracking functionality of the Vora, a clear line of sight is required. Aiming the barrel at an enemy isn't good enough for the electronic signal to be tagged, it takes a full five seconds of unobscured sight to successfully place a tag. While the weapon can be fired without the electronic homing signal, operators will notice greatly reduced accuracy.
- + Aside from standard slugs, specialized ammo is difficult to find and acquire for this weapon.
