OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
SPECIAL FEATURES
Officially, Helix Solutions was a neutral entity, an independent invasion force for hire. Unofficially, it was not long after his return to the galaxy that Helix threw his lot in wholly with House Marr. Behind closed doors, the rogue droid commander set to creating a vast array of weapons, arms, and war machines in service to the ambitious noble house. The building block of these was Chemical X17.
While a widely-feared tool of war, Helix's X16 was deemed too unstable for use in arming an organic military, and as such the full weight of the company's military scientists set about creating a new weapon for House Marr. X17 was the result.
Even more incendiary than its predecessor, but far more reliable, X17 trades in the radiotoxic properties of its forbear for less explosive volatility. As such, it is somewhat less lethal but far less harmful to the user, and weapons bearing it are more reliable.
Burning at nearly 20% greater temperatures than X16, the substance creates a similar sizzling whine when ignited, and eats ravenously at flesh, bone, and armor. Unlike the brilliant white-blue of X16, X17 burns with a vibrant purple hue. This has lead to the common parlance "Royal Fire" when used to describe it.
Capable of burning with equal exuberance in water or hard vacuum, it is nonetheless at its worst when in-atmosphere, and can burn for extended periods (nearly fifteen standard minutes without a greater fuel source) under these conditions.

SPECIAL FEATURES
- Highly incendiary.
- Stable Concoction: Royal Fire is far more stable than X16, and can be produced and stored in far greater quantities.
- Incendiary: Royal Fire blazes with profoundly high temperatures, refusing to be extinguished by most traditional means.
- Watered-Down: Royal fire trades the horrific toxic effects of X16 for greater stability and reliability, and while still quite deadly, will not irradiate a battlefield (or victim).
