 * Weapon Derivation: The sniper rifle my Imperial Agent uses in SWTOR: http://tor-fashion.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/DS-9-Starforged-Sniper-Rifle-Right.png, though I'd probably make the stock significantly larger.
 * Holstered/Inactive Form: Static sniper rifle slung on the back.
 * Form 1: Same as Inactive.
 * Form 2: (if applicable)
 * Form 3: (if applicable)
 * Dust Capacity: Uses a chamber in the stock to hold individual dust canisters to apply dust effects to the plasma bolts.
 * Ammunition: I'm not really sure how to apply ammo to a plasma rifle to be honest.
 * Usage: Long-range kills, usually headshots.
 * Planned/Possible Upgrades: Alternate firing modes for greater range, force, or armor penetration.
 * Notes: I went to this from using a real-world sniper rifle in the world of Remmnant mainly because I wanted something a little less boring, and because I assumed a plasma rifle would shoot further than a regular one.

Plasma has a lower velocity and range than ballistic materials but is more damaging. I suggest rail or gauss tech if you want a more advanced version of a standard sniper.
