[QUOTE="Verec, post: 3209433, member: 39164"] Nice Eva characters, too bad the kids probably have so much variation as to make them almost impossible to pin down.

Most weapons designers think Cortana designed the monster just to settle the score once and for all, and inform the Salusians that Yes, she does have the bigger gun. Others see this weapon as the logical answer to the many heavily armored threats facing the Pan-African state, including Genom's Boomers Few intact Spartan Lasers exist outside the control of their creator, and those that do use a nearly irreplaceable power source. Washu is believed to be in possession of at least one but this may be a gift, as some sources indicate that she is on friendly terms with the AI.
