Summary

Description
An unconventional shotgun that fires shard fragments by shattering an unstable fuel crystal.
Lore
Crafted on Prospect station using salvage and wood from the planet itself, this scattergun demonstrates The ICA's ingenuity and ability to thrive with limited resources. A molded adrentite crystal, byproduct of its refinement for use as rocket fuel, serves as both projectile and propellant; a small electric charge incites a rearrangement in the crystal's lattice, with the sudden energy release fracturing the crystal into thin shards along its length as they're shot through the barrel.
