- Seismic - Dealing damage in much the same fashion of a traditional seismic charge, albeit significantly downscaled, the seismic shell utilizes a mixture of baradium and collapsium gas that generates an explosive shockwave upon impact in a four meter radius. In this, it creates an implosive effect, followed immediately by an explosive charge that has the potential to rip targets inside and out to gruesome effect.
- CryoBan - Loaded with a payload of CryoBan, the CryoBan shell is designed to unleash its payload of heat-absorbing gas upon impact, dealing damage not only through raw kinetic force, but also via deep, gruesome cold injuries which may inflict lethal levels of frostbite, nerve damage, and other cold exposure effects.
- Rip and Tear - The massive 10-gauge slugs or shells fired by the Shatterpoint have the potential to deal terrible damage through a variety of means. This is a weapon optimized for putting down big, mean targets, up to and including lightly-armored vehicles.
- Rapid Fire - A fast-firing, automatic weapon, if the wielder encounters a target that won’t go down on the first shot, the Shatterpoint discharges shells and slugs fast enough to allow second, third, fourth, fifth, and yet more shots in short order, making it ideal for battering down shielded targets or ablating armor via persistent brute force.
- Stealth - The Skuggalegt polymer coating makes the Shatterpoint extremely discreet, making it difficult, if not impossible to pick up on sensors or scanners.
- Modularity - The Shatterpoint is highly modular, capable of fitting underbarrel gadgets and weaponry, in addition to a myriad of other customizations.
- Accuracy - Past a little over half of their corresponding effective range increments, both slugs and shells begin to lose their accuracy. Unfortunately, like any shotgun, the Shatterpoint is not a long range weapon and may struggle even at medium range.
- Ammunition Weight - Pound for pound, energy weapons are generally more efficient than slugthrowers. Unfortunately, the Shatterpoint is no exception to this. Magazines, especially drum magazines, are larger and heavier than power cells, limiting how many can be carried.
- Recoil - Firing a massive 10-gauge slug or shell, the Shatterpoint has high recoil that demands either a very strong shooter or powered, strength-enhancing armor to control.
- Double Blade - If the shooter is carrying CryoBan, Seismic, Incendiary, or Explosive shells, a penetrating shot on the magazine could very well have catastrophic effects, with the most grievous resulting the user being utterly annihilated, ripped asunder, or frozen like a popsicle.
A shotgun of violent, brutal character, where the lightsaber is a weapon of civilization, the blaster a weapon of the unwashed masses, and the slugthrower a weapon of brutes, the FAE/sW-01 “Shatterpoint” Machine Shotgun is a weapon of pure, unrestrained savagery, existing for the sole purpose of ripping and tearing its foes apart. Inelegant and blunt, the Shatterpoint embodies the ideal of “waking up and choosing violence”. As such, it can deal out violence through a variety of means, including through storms of buckshot pellets, a solid, uncompromising slug, explosive shells, and yet more.
All in all, the Shatterpoint represents the zenith of brutality, an instrument of death and destruction that leaves little room for negotiation or misinterpretation. Its wielders will find no greater asset in their undoubtedly gruesome work, leaving naught but a trail of broken, mangled bodies and rivers of blood in their wake.
