OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
The Tetrarch Assault Cannon is the first weapon designed by a joint Vaydralen and Ungulloi scientific team. The idea came to the Vaydralen scientists after watching a stone heat up in the midday sun, and wondering if such a simple action could perhaps be weaponized. Harnessing simple stones from Caerdar, and Draelvasier technology carefully crafted for this specific purpose, the scientific team was able to design and create the Tetrarch Assault Cannon. At first glance, the weapon appears to be nothing but a triangular stone, roughly ten meters in height and twelve in diameter. Inside, however, are dozens of conduits of Draelvasier technology, working together to create a weapon of devastating ability.

- Illumination: The Tetrarch Assault Cannon is powered entirely by solar radiation, allowing the weapon to be charged constantly without being force to wait for resupply. Even in battle, the weapon is slowly recharging itself, allowing it to engage in attritional conflicts without issue.
- Scythe: The beam fired by the Tetrarch Assault Cannon is able to be directed and changed, funneling it into a direction or shape desired by the user. In this way, the Tetrarch Assault Cannon can be used against large enemy capital ships, swarms of small starfighters, or even ground based bombardment.
- Range: As a beam of pure solar energy, the combat effective range for the Tetrarch Assault Cannon is in the extremes. It is capable of engaging enemy vessels at ranges that long range missiles normally would be required for with a high degree of accuracy.
- Output: As a sustained energy beam type weapon, the Tetrarch Assault Cannon is able to target and overwhelm enemy ships shielding, and bore its way through non shielded targets.
- Cool Down: The extreme heat create each time the Tetrarch Assault Cannon releases the stored energy within poses the risk of melting the Caerdar stones that comprise the weapon. The weapon has to be cooled down for nearly ten minutes between each firing, greatly limiting its overall tactical effectiveness and forcing careful thought for its use.
- Delicate: Each Tetrarch Assault Cannon is the culmination of scores of hours in careful design and construction, with the intricate balance between simple stone and Draelvasier technology creating such a unique weapon. Once completed, the Tetrarch Assault Cannon can not be repaired, and when damaged, it has to either be used at half capacity, or discarded entirely.
