[*]Model: HG-11/32 "Solaris" Gun
[*]Modularity:
__________________________________________________________
- Muzzle
Beam-focusing Emitter Module [BFEM]
Allows for the weapon to be more precise when firing.
[*]Beam-splitter Emitter Module (Shotgun-esque Modification) [ESEM]
- Allows for the weapon to act as a heat-shotgun, shooting off bolts instead of beams of heat in a shotgun-esuqe fashion to maximize overall damage done to enemies.
[*]Assault-rifle Beam Emitter Module [ARBEM]
- Allows for the weapon to fire in short bursts of heat without there needing to be a heat-up process between each beam burst, effectively creating a rapid-fire heat gun to melt through enemies with relative ease in most cases.
__________________________________________________________
- Butt
Energy Capacitor F-11, Increase Capacity Module
Allows for the weapon to be able to fire for longer without being forced to reload, at the cost, however, of the reloading process taking ten more seconds than normal.
[*]Energy Capacitor F-10, Self-cooling Module
- Allows for the weapon to be able to fire for longer without overheating.
[*]Advanced Energy F-09 Capacitor Module
- Allows for the weapon's beam to do more damage than it would be able to do otherwise, however, it is at the cost of how long it can fire for and that it can much more easily overheat when this attacthment is active.

- Heat-based weapons have always been a sought after weapon when the Golden Company had first entered into the Galaxy. Their weapons were formidable adversaries, capable of rendering armor weak and useless in the wake of the power of the sun that the Thrysians could harness. Such types of weapons are foreign and alien in nature, harkening to more arcane arts than anything of tangible and corporeal nature, anything real. These types of weapons have always been sought after by weapon manufacturers to study, to reproduce, and to make of there own. Though such arcane arts limited their expertise and knowledge of such things, overall limiting them for what they could do. Companies and organizations alike sought to create technology to reproduce similar effect and capabilities to those of the Golden Company's sun-based weaponry. The private military organization known simply as it's weapon front of 'Griffin War Solutions' sought to delve into such uncharted territory. To do so, however, would require the assistance of a galactic nation, a smaller one of course, yet one that carried with it all of the knowledge and power to bend the Galaxy to its knee. Such a choice became the recently created Core Imperial Confederation. A join engineer cooperation was reached through clever financial and political talks, linking the private military organization with that of the Imperial faction to better each other's weaponry and overall capability to cause war.
- The weapon makes use of a complex, energy-based capacitor system. This capacitor system draws in the energy from the slotted in energy cartridges and applies a concentrated amount of thermal heat and light thermal radiation to it within the interior capacitor of the weapon to directly modify the energy current that runs through it. This energy current subsequently heats itself up from the constant stimuli, utilizing a galven coil precision and heating system to hone the energy into a more concentrated beam where heat energy is condensed into one singular matter and unit rather than multiple condensed heat bolts as would be typical to a blaster rifle. This creates a constant energy beam which can fire off from the rifle, allowing the melting of durasteel through shields and the heating up of heavier and denser metal than durasteel which, with enough constant heat poured onto it, can melt such things such as Quadanium steel as well.
