Midnight Arms Erebus

Erebus is an Power Submachine Gun designed by Midnight Arms in.

Characteristics
The Erebus is a prototype weapon designed by Midnight Arms. It has a magazine size of 50 rounds, and a basic iron sight with red lights. Each of the Erebus's rounds splits off into 6 projectiles.

It also has a very ominous eye to the left of the iron sight that appears to be watching the user. This eye's appearance is very similar to the Project Cynosure core. The eye houses a Rogue AI from the Blackwall that periodically speaks to the user.

The Erebus has an iconic modifier that increases damage by 20%, but also increases weapon spread by 20%.

Erebus has a special ability that has a guaranteed chance to upload the Blackwall Gateway quickhack to enemies below 33% Health, instantly neutralizing them. It also has a 5% chance to upload the Cyberware Malfunction quickhack at any Health percentage (this is reduced to 1% against Bosses).
