Dragon Emperor Launcher "3...2...1... Let it Rip!"

2
An extraordinary crossbow.
Used by Sora Tatsuya, Created by Atroniac.
On Legendary Artifact Chimera Drago.

Sora loads LDrago into its launcher before firing it at a target. Sora can also charge the launch causing LDrago to be cloaked in flame when fired.
(Flavor note: As LDrago serves as the ammunition for this power Sora must take at least a quick action to recall LDrago before using this gift again. Effectively a reload)
