Flare AxeA flare axe pushes a magnetically contained wave of plasma in a semicircular arc parallel to the haft that resembles a miniature solar flare. The color of plasma indicates the relative temperature (and therefore damage output) of each weapon: red star flare axes are the standard model, yellow star and white star flare axes are more dangerous, and blue star flare axes inflict the most destruction.Plasma WeaponsSuperheated or electromagnetically charged gas becomes ionized plasma, which plasma weapons emit in a controlled blast. Ionized plasma deals both electricity and fire damage, tearing through organic flesh and metal alike. Plasma beams can be projected, as from a gun, or maintained in a steady beam with a powerful magnetic field, as the blade of a melee weapon.
Followers of Sarenrae popularized terms for the different intensities of plasma swords based on the heat they emit. The hottest, deadliest plasma weapon is a blue star, followed in descending order by white star, yellow star, red star, and finally tactical plasma weapons.
