Created through a joint effort by the Vitae Security Forces and Ember’s Ordinances Droids and Design, the VSF Alsatian was created to become the primary weapon of non-specialized troops within the VSF. In keeping with the spirit of adaptability, each rifle has been given a shield generator setting which when deployed, uses power from the powercell to extend a shield disk one meter in diameter from the end of the barrel. While the weapon is incapable of firing in this mode, it can allow for moderate cover when troops are moving through open terrain The time of usage will drop in proportion to how many shots have been used before activation, and additional energy is expended upon defending against impact from enemy attacks. When moved into shield mode, the Alsatian’s muzzle break will spread apart in a cross formation. From this point, should the trigger be pulled, the shield will deploy for as long as the trigger is depressed, much like an automatic firing mode.
The VSF Alsatian has also been given an internal faraday cage like most other Vitae Weapons, due to Vulpesen's wariness of losing weapon usage due to an EMP.
