STRENGTHS
- Go Long! - Making use of a honed phrik barrel, the Ingmal can fire exceedingly accurate shots, capable of reaching between 1000 and 1200 meters.
- That's Gotta Hurt - Making use of a double gas compressor, alongside high-quality Tabinna Gas, Ingmal can fire high-damage bolts, able to rip through most low-grade armor. It's quite impressive, especially given the rifle's smaller size.
- That's A Knockout! Wait, No, It Was Lethal - Has two fire modes, both lethal and a stun option. The stun blast is less accurate, however, making it more of a close-quarters option.
- Knock Your Jaw Off - The rifle has quite a high recoil, making successive shots much harder for the user to hit, and because of its size, the user must maintain a tight grip to use it properly.
- 1, 2, 3, Fire! - Ingmal has a low fire rate, while not too bad on its own, combined with the weapon's high recoil, it makes a user think twice before firing, and potentially wasting a shot.
- Roar Of A Rancor - Ingmal is anything but silent. When fired, it produces a loud roar of a shot, ripping through the air.
DESCRIPTION
When it comes to makeshift blasters, Ingmal is as well put together as they come. Well, put together over a period of many years. The rifle is the personal weapon of Kel Qyr Savuk, something he holds quite dear to himself, but it wasn't always his. Before it fell into the hands of Kel, it belonged to his father, Jickela Anti Savuk. With a fine-tuned and honed phrik barrel, the rifle is able to fire highly accurate shots. Ideal for hunting animals of any kind, even some more... dubious prey. With the use of a custom double gas compressor, it can release high-damage blasts. Paired with a higher-quality gas, it can be even deadlier, turning its average red bolt color to a deep blue one. Of course, it isn't just a deadly weapon, it has an incorporated stun feature for prey better left alive. Lastly, there's its notable sound, a product of the custom compressor used by the weapon. Ironic, given how small the rifle is.
As said before, the blaster rifle was previously owned by Jickela Savuk, Kel's father. It wasn't always such a distinct weapon, it used to belong to one of the many blaster brands in the galaxy, but it has since had so many parts and pieces replaced over the years, that it bears no resemblance to the original model. It isn't a model anything now, it is simply Ingmal. The trusted weapon of a Kaleesh hunter, and in turn, his son. In his prime, Jickela took the weapon on many a hunt, going to have a certain fondness for the thing. He constructed a custom gas compressor for it, in hopes it would improve the firepower. It did, but the first shot taken with the new system completely destroyed the barrel of the weapon, screaming along as it did. Around his 30th year, only two before his son would be born, Jickela found a crashed transport in the jungle of Kalee. After scavenging and looting the thing, he found something quite particular, a crate of phrik metal. He didn't know what it was at first but soon found out. The ship was obviously a smuggler's, still, it offered a bit of wealth. With the metal found, he had it fashioned into a barrel for the rifle. Not only did it allow him to fire the blaster more than once, but it also improved his accuracy. Soon after discovering this, he went to tune it better, honing the barrel in such a way it would improve his shots even further.
Thus he gave it a name, completing his attachment to the weapon. Ingmal, a Kaleeshi word, a battle cry. It fit, given how loud the thing was. Growing older, he eventually passed it down to his Son, so it may serve him just as well as it did his father.
As his father would, "From the jungle to Coruscant, let your prey fall swiftly."
