Overview

The Cindershot was manufactured and developed by Ferrarius Assembler Vats.[2] The Cindershot fires ionized particle grenades, which explode seconds after launching, damaging anything caught in its explosion.

When reloading, the front of the Cindershot is pulled back, allowing more hard-light grenades to move to the front of the ibarrel, before it snaps back to its original position.
