Ripper (Weapon)

A Heated Projectile Launcher, more commonly known as a Ripper, is the Primary weapon of The Human Consortium's military forces, and has been noted to be "Increasingly effective against The Charred".

Functions
A Ripper, also known as a Heated Projectile Launcher, functions by launching thin sawblade-like projectiles that have been heated to just over 200 °F. This temperature is not enough to cauterize the wound left by the projectile, but it is designed in a way that would create an infection in the wound over time.
