Fireball

And now for something a bit more... ancient. I'll give you a hint: it's a firearm! Get it, because it's a Fireball? Never mind...
A relic from before the Great War, this weapon retains the power of Fire. When activated the Fireball sends concentrated bursts of Fire towards its target (hence the name, Fireball) at temperatures between 2000 and 2500 degrees centigrade. First serviced in 210 AA (Age of Armament), the Fireball served with great distinction during the Great War due to its cheap manufacturing cost and great power as well as its large variety of uses. There have been seven versions of this iconic weapon throughout its long life and soldiers are torn between which one was the best. The Fireball finished its production after the Age of Recovery along with many other single Element weapons due to Elemental Changers becoming more widely used.

Iconic users and battles include:
Kristoph Olanson – Battle of the Melt – 386 AA
Riol Rikoth – Siege of Canopien – 498 AA
David Gull – Battle of the Rush – 56 GW (Great War)
Mary Salz – Raid of Retribution – 679 GW
Celene Cyro – Fight for Hangman’s Peak – 156 AI (Age of Isolation)
