OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
The FAE/M-05 Kinetite Shockwave Strike Weapon is a melee weapon intended to augment the force behind its user’s hand-to-hand attacks, giving them a punch that has the potential to crack open armor. Facilitating this, the FAE/M-05 can be integrated into boots, gloves, knucklers, and sometimes other areas, primarily augmenting kicks and punches, though elbow strikes, headbutts, and other types of striking attacks can be enhanced as well should the kinetite charges be integrated into the respective regions. This effect is achieved by the kinetite generator, which utilizes its stored kinetic energy to discharge a powerful wave of overpressure, which is capable of breaking heavy durasteel plates.
While the FAE/M-05 is a loud, unsubtle weapon, its volume is exceeded by the brute force it is capable of inflicting upon a target. In this regard, the FAE/M-05 is hoped to represent a marked advancement in hand-to-hand combat technologies, significantly augmenting the lethality of the humble boot, fist, elbow, or any other striking surface.

- Data and Information Security
- Diagnostic System - Diagnostic system runs automatic maintenance checks on the weapon and is able to identify parts, systems, and components in need of repair or replacement.
- Electronics and Communications Suite - Integrated suite that links to virtually any system, allowing the user to obtain hard data from the weapon’s systems, such as running temperatures, stability, diagnostic information, Etc.
- Kinetite Motivator - Motivator converts energy from the rylith power cell into kinetic energy, which is then stored as a kinetite charge. This charge is typically released via a strike attack (under typical conditions), or as called for by the user.
- Direct Interface - The weapon depends on a direct interface to its user in order to function, so that the weapon does not discharge under inappropriate circumstances. This interface may be a neural link, a droid brain link, or a technopathic link.
- Inertial Dampening System - Inertial dampening system protects the user from the kickback force of the shockwaves discharged by the weapon.
- Power Connection System - The weapon has a capacitor which can be charged by the rylith power cell and the host unit’s own power plant, the host in question is a droid or a personal armor with a dedicated power source.
- Power Setting Modulation System - The power setting modulation system allows the user to modulate the strength of the discharged shockwave(s), ranging from high-powered, lethal settings to non-lethal, stun settings.
- Shockwave Strike - The FAE/M-05 unleashes a powerful, point blank shockwave whenever the user delivers a strike attack. This wave of kinetic overpressure carries enough force to buckle heavy titanium plates or fracture durasteel with a single, full-powered discharge. When set against an organic target, it has the potential to shatter bones, cave in chest cavities, and rupture organs.
- Form Factor - Intended for integration into gloves, knuckles, boots, and sometimes other areas the FAE/M-05 is sleek and unobtrusive.
- Technological Corruption - As with any piece of technology, if left unprotected the FAE/M-05 will be vulnerable to the predations of Mechu-deru and other means of techno-sorcery.
- Vacuum - The FAE/M-05 can not project its shockwave without a medium to propagate through. As such, the weapon does not work in a vacuum.
- Sonic Boom - Unfortunately, the FAE/M-05 is an unsubtle weapon that is not meant for stealth takedowns. When discharged, the shockwave emits a thunderous boom owing to the hypersonic disruption of the air. In all likelihood, a high-powered discharge will alert everyone in the vicinity.
