      • Hyper-Ionized Particle Bolt Spread
        • Considered to be the standard energy module, this module manifests a spread of eight hyper-ionized particle bolts that deal damage via a veritable hammer blow of concussive shock (kinetic energy), the searing release of thermal energy as the superheated plasma particles destabilize matter to produce searing heat, and finally ionization energy which can disrupt electronics and overload energy shields in the manner of an electromagnetic pulse. Of particular significance, each bolt in the spread has an explosive effect upon connecting with a shield or solid object, including the blade of a lightsaber.
      • Incendiary Plasma Bolt Spread
        • This module manifests a spread of eight incendiary plasma bolts, with each separate bolt encased inside its own magnetic field. Each bolt is designed to “splash” in a one-meter radius on impact with any solid object (including energy fields) as the searing plasma adheres itself to objects within its radius. Stuck to the target, the semi-solid plasma “gel” can potentially inflict significant and continuous superheating damage on shields, armor, and flesh, typically burning at temperatures in excess of five thousand degrees centigrade for several seconds. This module also has secondary kinetic effects, though not nearly to the degree of the default hyper-ionized particle beam module.
      • Stun Bolt Spread
        • Projects a spread of eight stun bolts that are designed to leave a target unconscious by overloading their nervous system via charged electrical impulses.
    • Firing Settings
      • Adjustable Cone and Spread of Discharge
        • In general, a wider spread or cone of fire gives a lower range in exchange for increased AoE capability, while a narrower spread allows for a longer range and a more concentrated damage output.
      • Salvo Fire Module
        • When active, allows the weapon to fire both barrels with a single trigger pull.

  • Versatility: A hybrid weapon, the KCS-7 can be switched on the fly from one firing module to the other, allowing the user to choose the optimal energy module for the conditions.
  • Terror Weapon: Firing a spray of eight bolts with a single shot, the KCS-7 has significant damage potential. A single, direct blast on the hyper-ionized particle bolt spread mode within the weapon's effective range is roughly equivalent to being struck by eight pistol-grade particle beam bolts at once, complete with explosive, kinetic, thermal, and ionic damage effects. Similar applies to the incendiary plasma bolt spread and stun bolt spread energy modes. Given the volume of fire, the weapon is capable of melting through most any infantry-grade armor (and some light vehicle armors), including heavy armored powersuits.
  • Unrelenting Chaos: With its blistering rate of fire, the KCS-7 is quite ideal for smashing down defenses and unleashing devastation at close range. As an additional option, both barrels can be fired at once. In no uncertain terms, the KCS-7 is an aggressive, shocking weapon capable of inflicting terrifying amounts of havoc and destruction.

  • Fortune Teller: If the weapon is fired with a misaligned prismatic crystal, the risk of an explosive outcome is somewhat high, likely ending with the weapon going off in the wielder’s hand to potentially catastrophic effect in the event that they attempt to fire it in spite of the damage.
  • Mechanical Corruption: Like any piece of technology, the KCS-7 is susceptible to Mechu-deru and other technology-corrupting powers. If left unprotected, a practitioner of such esoteric sorceries could induce a jam or some other failure that might compromise the weapon entirely or demand precious time to fix, leaving the user vulnerable.
  • Cut Through the Middle: The KCS-7 breaks open while reloading, creating a structural weakness which an opponent could exploit to destroy the weapon.

Representing a refinement on scatterblaster-type weapons, the KCS-7 is a double barrel hybrid scatterblaster designed by First United Astral Engineering and manufactured solely by the Kainate. Naturally, the KCS-7 incorporates the company’s standard suite of utility features. However, technologically refined, elegant design belies its purpose as an aggressive close-quarters weapon capable of unleashing shocking amounts of destruction.

Distinguishing the KCS-7 from its peers, the weapon's emphasis on utility and versatility in the form of the energy modules, security functions, and advanced electronics are hoped to make up the difference that potentially sets the weapon above the competition.

Notably, the KCS-7 is formally manufactured exclusively by the Kainate. However, the weapon was also made available to other, non-Kainate groups in the Sith Order. These groups however are often made to pay a tithe to Malsheem in exchange for the weapon.

All in all, the KCS-7 is a weapon of unquestionable purpose, with its sleek, yet brutal aesthetic hinting that the destruction it is capable of inflicting. It is hoped to become a feared, potent weapon in the arsenal of the Kainate and the wider Sith Order.
