- High Powered Hand-Cannon: Almost every feature that Noah implemented into the pistol was designed to make it as powerful as possible, effectively turning the pistol into what many refer to as a 'hand-cannon'
- Deceptively Light: Like its melee counterpart the pistol Noah designed is deceptively light when taken in comparison to the amount of damage it can output
- Droids in Mind: Like its melee counterpart the pistol that Noah designed was made for a non-organic droid operator in mind and as such it could be awkward for organic users to use and acclimatize to
- Larger Power Draw: As you would expect from a weapon with so many modifications thrown into it the pistol it draws significantly more power from its power cell than most blaster pistols of its size
With the melee weapon of the envisioned droid guard force created Noah began working on a sidearm for the guard force as well. While Noah preferred slugthrowers he realized that for droids that blasters might be a better option and so he began the design of a blaster pistol for aforementioned droids. With the droids vibrosword base off of a old design he decided to do the same with the blaster pistol, basing it off of the venerable Clone Wars era DC-17 Hand Blaster.
With the basic design chosen he began the process of choosing the materials that would be used in the blasters construction. He chose Thoranium for its notability to withstand the forces of particularly power blaster shots. The entirety of the internal mechanisms and barrel were made of Dallorian Alloy to prevent the blaster from overheating. The grips were made of Plasteel to save on weight without sacrificing durability. Finally the entire blaster was coated in CeramiCoat to prevent external damage as much as possible.
Next Noah began sorting through the features that would be beneficial to add to the pistol. First was a fully set of controls consisting of a safety, power cell and gas canister release. An enlarged trigger guard allows the droids to fire the pistol easier. A pure rylith power cell generates much more power for bolts than your typical cell. A more advanced amplifying chamber increases the power behind the bolt. Galven circuitry throughout the blaster also improves power by concentrating energy better.
Only the best quality of Tibanna gas was used in the blaster, producing a stronger yellow bolt. An extra efficient heter valve makes sure no Tibanna gas from the cartridge is wasted. An advanced gas conversion enabler agitates the Tibanna gas more extremely than a typical conversion enabler. An enhanced actuating module with strong electromagnets produced a strong blaster bolt. Finally a flawless, hand cut and hand polished prismatic crystal adds the last bit of power to the blaster.
In essence Noah crafted a blaster pistol that is essentially a miniature cannon.
