Aural Blaster

Systech Aural Blaster

The Systech aural blaster is a sonic blaster pistol designed by the Systech Corporation. Designed by Systech Corporation weapons manufacturing company, it was an awkward weapon, which was difficult to wield without special training. Shaped like a pistol with auxiliary sonic emitters attached to either side of the barrel, the aural blaster could deafen a target with a successful hit. Though inferior in damage potential to traditional blasters, the blaster's design made it a viable weapon, with its deafening and disorientating capabilities. This weapon dealt a type of damage called sonic damage which meant it could not be deflected by a lightsaber as a normal blaster bolt could.
