The Royal Standard (RS-29) is the Royal Naboo Defense Force's reimagined update to the classic S-5 blaster pistol, designed and manufactured by Priddy General Engineering and Manufacturing. Recognizing the need for a standardized sidearm that could offer both reliable firepower and enhanced tactical options, the RNDF commissioned this updated design. While maintaining the S-5's familiar profile and ease of use, the RS-29 incorporates more modern blaster technology ensuring consistent power output and range in a compact package.

The most significant addition to the RS-29 is the integrated ascension cable launcher. This innovative feature allows RNDF personnel to quickly ascend walls, structures, or other vertical obstacles, providing a significant advantage in urban environments or uneven terrain. The ascension cable is deployed via a single-use cartridge loaded into the weapon's chassis, offering a quick and reliable means of reaching elevated positions. The weapon is designed to ensure the safety of the user when using the blaster so that excess overclocking is not allowed.

While the RS-29 provides increased mobility, it requires training to use the ascension cable effectively and maintain situational awareness. The blaster's average damage output means that RNDF personnel must rely on accuracy and tactical positioning to overcome more heavily armored adversaries. Furthermore, the ascension cable mechanism is sensitive to extreme environmental conditions and requires regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance.
