Meso Laser
A simple if powerful laser manufactured by the Shasta No Sekai corporation in YE 41 fur use in drones and mecha.
Discharge Information
- Muzzle Flash: A bright flash of blue light momentarily erupts from the barrel as the laser fires.
- Retort: pew pew
- Beam Appearance: A bright, visible beam of straight blue energy stretches from the weapon to its target visible only for a fraction of a second. If on fully automatic it gives the appearance of a constant beam of blue energy no thicker around than a human finger.
- Effective Range 3,000 meters before energy falloff.
- Rate of Fire: 120 discharges per minute
- Recoil: The meso laser has little more noticeable recoil than a 45. caliber pistol.

Weapon Mechanisms
The Meso laser is a proof of concept weapons weapons platform. It has no one form and is instead the laser system installed in a weapon instead of a singular rifle or pistol.
- Firing Mechanism: The meso laser is often electronically fired through a switch or trigger. Drawing a charge from one or many Meso energy cells and discharges a beam of blue energy through a focusing lens at the end of a barrel.
- Loading: The laser can have a single inserted battery or several linked together in a magazine like battery pack or drum. Often the case of the former in an operator employed rifle or pistol design. And a drone the latter due to an inability to use complex loading skills or having a lack of proper appendage.
- Mode Selector: Often the meso will have a switch to switch between a single, burst, or automatic firing mode when installed in a rifle. But when built into a platform such as a drone or mecha will be linked to fully automatic fire.
- Safety Mechanism: Physical safety switch or built in mechanism in the case of mecha
- Weapon Sight: optics can be mounted via an installed optics rail on most meso laser platforms or a small targeting camera linked to mecha.
- Attachment Hard Points: varies per platform.
