DESCRIPTION​

The Nightstinger is a weapon designed for military, infiltration, and intelligence operatives. It has two modes that can be cycled between with the flip of a switch. On its "loud" mode it is a standard medium blaster pistol with nothing particularly special about it and fires red bolts. The thing that makes the weapon unique is its "quiet" mode. With the flip of a switch, the blaster cycles to a specialized tibanna gas canister that is designed to be more subtle particularly in night operations. In "quiet" mode the Nightstinger fires a light blaster bolts that is dark in color and not luminous so that it blends into the night. Although it can still be heard, it is far less noisy than conventional blaster and may be unheard in a particularly noisy or crowded environment.

LEGALITY​

Generally illegal for civilian ownership. The Nightstinger is a weapon often used by assassins and intelligence agents.

RESTRICTIONS​

Due to the sensitive internal workings of the Nightstinger it is not compatible with internal after market modifications (for example magnetic accelerators and other similar mods). Interference with the internal workings of the pistol is notorious for completely breaking the pistol's unique functionality. Nightstingers are expensive and therefore relatively uncommon weapons, and few individuals outside of government agencies or dedicated assassins are known to carry them.

INTENT​

I wanted to make a weapon that was geared more toward stealth and infiltration characters but that wouldn't be completely broken for the purposes of PvP. While not silent by any means, this is just a quieter and more subtle option than blatant, open blasterfire. It is inspired to be a more balanced pistol-version of the rifle of the same name in legends and canon. Realistically, this is primarily for flavor and for practical purposes shouldn't give much of an advantage in PvP.

Could you add some restrictions to this? Availability perhaps?

Added some notes about their rarity and also added some restrictions on after-market mods as well!
