Developed on the frozen tundra world of Arkania, weapons and armor of Arkanian Manufacture are engineered to function in extremely cold environments.
Weapons: Arkanian Manufacture Weapons deal Energy and Fire damage; however, if an Arkanian Weapon is used with an ability that consumes more than one shot in a round (such as Rapid Shot or Double Attack), the weapon overheats and cannot be fired for one round as it cools down.
Armors: Arkanian Manufacture Armor doubles its Equipment bonus to Fortitude Defense against Extreme Cold, but has no Equipment bonus to Fortitude Defense against Extreme Heat.
