J'apu Armament

Description

The J'apu are a bipedal alien race whose home star is roughly 16 light years away from earth. When their radio transmissions met those of some colonized human planets, the two races immediately allied, and the J'apu came to meet the humans.

The J'apu are slightly more advanced than humans, but more on them later. Their weapons are what will be really important in the war brewing on first contact with the Iriktu and their allied races.

The J'apu focus on using electricity in their weapons, and the projectiles are ale fired by an electric system, much like a railgun, which means no gunpowder or explosions. The weapons are all constructed in two parts- the one piece twisted outer panel, and the carbon-composite black inner piece containing working parts. The logo of the J'apu/ human alliance is branded on each weapon

1. This is the J'apu's main anti-vehicle weapon. It has a clip holding three high velocity negatively charged rounds designed to stick inside their target. The rounds are fired out between the two folds up front. Two seconds after firing, the two folds at the front of the gun have amassed a gigantic positive charge, and a deadly, gigantic bolt of lightning spreads between it and the round. All three rounds can be fired in succession, but the resulting lightning bolts will only carry 1/3 of their potential power. A video scope is hidden up on top of the gin under the fold of the outer section.

2. This is a simpler weapon carried by most J'apu. It is a plasma/projectile rifle carrying 18 rounds. It fires single positively charged rounds encased in negatively charged plasma. On top it carries a video scope.

3. One of the most interesting guns created by the J'apu, this weapon only carries one positively charged round. At one trigger pull, the weapon repels its round, and at the next pull, the weapon attracts it back. The gun is not extremely accurate, but on the upside, the user almost never reloads.

4. A newer weapon, this oddly shaped gun uses anti-gravity to repel whatever is in its cartridge forward. Most cartridges come full of small chunks of razor-sharp metal. At each trigger pull, it expels 1/4 of the contents of the cartridge.

5. A standard backup weapon for the J'apu this fully automatic gun carries 144 tiny rounds. When a round is fired, a small arc of lightning spreads between it and the gun, and the next bullet. he bullets are not very damaging, but the lightning can easily kill an enemy and a full cartridge of ammunition can take out the electrical systems of a large vehicle.
