Acid Sprayer
Acid Sprayer
Created by Slappy
One of the Resistance’s most effective weapons is a powerful acid that is devastating to metal but relatively harmless to organic tissue. Unfortunately, this weapon is also the inspiration for one of Kali’s most sadistic ideas. She decided to create a similar acid firing weapon that would be harmless for her forces yet highly destructive against living tissue. She had Hecate search through the vast databanks of N.E.X.U.S. for the perfect chemical compound that would serve Kali’s needs. She finally settled on a powerful acidic compound that was harmless to metal and other inorganic substances, strong enough to eat through the thick hides of Bio-Tech constructions, but not so powerful that it instantly killed unarmored humans. She could have used a more corrosive acid, but Kali thought this one was absolutely perfect. She loves the fact that it slowly devours mortal flesh rather than granting them a painless death. Design wise, this gruesome weapon is basically a Plasma Napalm Launcher modified to fire a different type of chemical. The large back mounted fuel tank holds a substantial amount of acid, but each blast sprays so much of this corrosive liquid that the weapon actually has a very limited payload.
