Note: Arvyuptros has a set of mechanical wings and a simple ordinary handgun (never used in anger). He also has a very special handgun, described below.

Now safe on Mugama with his Oytrip, Arvyuptros has determined that one of the ‘non-operational Ancient souvenirs’ is actually an exceedingly powerful handheld weapon. It needs about 20,000 MW to power it up properly, the kind of power that a 20,000-dton or so civilian starship can provide. Powered up, it can fire up to five shots, each shot powerful enough to destroy a major warship. The weapon is keyed so that only a Droyne can fire it: trying to reverse engineer it or modify it will cause it to disintegrate into simple atoms with a burst of radiation powerful enough to kill everything in a 20 km radius.

The Broprayts Oytrip wants this weapon powered up, and then entrusted to the Oytrip leadership, without the Imperium knowing a single thing about it. For one thing, it would be entirely too useful in the current Rim War, and the Oytrip will never get it back after the war is over. For another, the Imperium might, just might, be able to reverse-engineer and replicate it. This would be Bad.
