From the three pulsating diodes in Jackie's head, a beam is formed. Unbending, and certainly unyielding the red pulsating beam melts flesh and bursts clothes into flames with mere contact. Although the effect is searing red hot pain, the beam looks like a regular almost laser pointer beam. Charred flesh and cooking meat fills the senses of anybody unfortunate enough to witness such a thing.
As customary for every field agent of X, Jackie has a form of self defense. His facial cybernetics mark him as a field agent, but also has a dual purpose.

From here, the lance is unleashed upon any fool who needs a reminder of the weakness of their flesh. (uses same stats as rifle.) rolls off tech/dex
