Weapon Description
The Wayward Son is a deadly pistol designed to pack a hard punch in a small container. Made to be a side arm for [member="Gir Quee"] to carry on his person the classic looking pistol is all about practicality despite its more elegant look.
Strengths. A plasma encased slug carries the best of both worlds when it comes to projectiles. It causes massive burns along with the heavy kinetic and internal trauma that are known for Slugthrowers when it hits a target. Having about the strength of your standard heavy blaster pistol The Wayward Son is all about its simple and easy to use design. Just plug and fire, and while the weapon can still be deflected by sabers it does have the ability to pierce various armor systems.
Weaknesses. But it does have its downsides. A .45 is a pretty heavy round, and while it can put someone on their butt if they get hit, it has a lot of recoil. So when shooting be sure not to panic fire or you might lose control of the weapon. Furthermore the plasma and electronic feature in the gun means that if an EMP goes off then the blaster portion of this weapon is lost. You can fire slugs all day but without the plasma they aren't as effective.
Summary. A pretty sick weapon for a pretty sick fleeting captain. The Wayward Son is a good weapon and you can always carry on when you have it.
