STRENGTHS

• Reloading? What's That?: The Keyboard can fire an incredibly large amount of shots before the disk-shaped plasma gas cartridge needs to be replaced.
• Ease of Use: The Keyboard is not a very complicated weapon to use, and maintenance is very easy.

WEAKNESSES

• Accuracy: The high rate of fire also means that the Keyboard can be difficult to control. The lack of sight mounts also makes precision aiming difficult.
• Blood Runs Hot: When fired for extended periods of time, the Keyboard may overheat and potentially burn the wielder.
• Range: The Keyboard is most effective at close range, where the bolts can hit their target the most. Beyond that, the bolts are more likely to spread or go wide.

DESCRIPTION
The Cantonica Keyboard is a repeating blaster rifle designed by Aurelius Baldor and produced by Shadowhand Skunkworks to arm The Family with a simple but effective blaster. The black rifle can fire for days (metaphorically speaking, of course) without needing to reload or maintain, but two major obstacles prevent full-on mayhem. First and foremost, the Keyboard's high rate of fire gives the blaster a tendency to overheat when fired for extended periods of time, potentially burning or maiming the wielder if they don't give it time to cool off.

Secondly, the high rate of fire means users without a strong grip on the blaster's built-in foregrip may find themselves losing control of the weapon as it kicks wildly.
