The Rohakadu-pattern Pistol, also known as the plasma pistol, is a plasma-based directed-energy firearm manufactured by Iruiru Armory under a shadow contract with the Banished for use in armed combat.[1]
Overview
Design details
- Main article: Plasma pistol
Manufactured by Iruiru Armory, the Rohakadu-pattern plasma pistol is a directed-energy weapon employed by the Banished. The Rohakadu-pattern was designed and commissioned per Let 'Volir's requests under a shadow contract with the manufacturer. The pattern bares heavy similarities to the Zo'klada-pattern plasma pistol utilized by many Covenant splinter factions, and respects the former's design in functionality too, although with slight improvements to durability and native-link compatibility.[1]
Usage
This Rohakadu-pattern pistol was fielded by Banished forces during the Battle for Zeta Halo in 2560. It was commonly used by Unggoy and Kig-Yar.[2][3]
Variants
- Unbound Plasma Pistol: A modified variant of the plasma pistol with a white chassis that fires faster, stronger bolts. In addition, its scaled burst fires six bolts instead of a single overcharge bolt; the bolts detonate in a "supercombine" explosion if they hit the same target.[4]
