Description: The Aroa'yr Dur'r, or silver thorn in basic, is a high power blaster developed and hand made by Titan Kryze. Built as a lightsaber inside a blaster, Titan figured out how to cut the blade and "eject" it, meaning it catapults a high powered plasma bolt, identical in molecular makeup to lightsaber blades, at high speeds. The bolts go fast enough to reach most normal targets before they can react, though Force Users and mentally quick beings (PCs) can avoid it on some counts. Unfortunately, the large energy discharge makes a very loud sound, unless using a silencer, meaning that it renders stealth nearly impossible. The amount of energy required to make the gun work is enormous, meaning that it uses 15 shots worth of energy from a heavy blaster pistol in 1 shot. The kickback is powerful causing the gun to jerk up a centimeter or so after every shot. The reverse side to this is the fact that the blasts can tear through most metals up to a half meter thick, punching a hole about two centimeters in diameter, the size of the shot, and keep on going, albeit weaker than before. The parts of the gun cause it to weigh nearly three kilograms, even though the gun is only 19 CM long.

Kaiburr Crystal

The Kaiburr Crystal is currently a claimed item according to the claimed canon item list. There are a bunch other crystal options that you can choose from, of course.

"eject" it, meaning it catapults a high powered energy bolt, identical in molecular makeup to lightsaber blades,

There's often some debate about the technical details about Star Wars technology, but as far as we know, lightsaber blades and blaster bolts work on different principles. Blasters appear to be some sort of particle beam weaponry, while lightsabers use contained plasma. There are some plasma-based guns out there, which you might be able to use instead of a blaster if you feel that the lightsaber basis is important to this submission.

Upon review of some of the newer sources out there, some blasters are described as firing pure plasma, so this is now a non-issue.

The reverse side to this is the fact that the blasts can tear through most metals punching a hole about two centimeters in diameter, the size of the shot, and keep on going.

How does target metal/material depth play into this?

I can see this being better than normal at piercing through personal armor, but I'd like to see something that shows people that this won't be shooting through lines of tanks, etc (Admittedly that's a slight exaggeration, but you get my point).

[member="Gir Quee"], half a meter good? If so, added that as the maximum depth.

This is pretty powerful, but there are a handful of disruptor weapons that have similar effects.

and keep on going.

If you'll just add here that the bolt will be much weaker after it penetrates objects, we'll be good.
