Carrion Defense Works Miasma Projector MP-5 'Plague Bearer'

A pressurized chemical dispersal weapon that launches canisters of Carrion's proprietary incapacitant compound — a viscous aerosol that adheres to surfaces and continues to off-gas for up to six hours. The compound causes severe mucous membrane irritation, temporary blindness, and uncontrollable retching in unprotected targets. It is technically classified as non-lethal, though confined-space deployment has resulted in documented fatalities from asphyxiation. The persistent nature of the compound makes it particularly effective for area denial.

story hooks

Someone deployed Miasma canisters in a sealed residential ventilation system in Tier 2 — forty people hospitalized, three dead, and the canisters had their serial numbers chemically erased.
A Carrion chemist has developed a variant that selectively affects people based on their blood chemistry — it only incapacitates targets with specific pharmaceutical markers.

physical description

visual profile	A brutalist, industrial dispersal weapon with a pronounced barrel assembly and bulbous pressure chamber. Resembles a hybrid between a riot launcher and a pressurized pesticide applicator — all hard angles and utilitarian bulk. The silhouette reads as deliberately ominous: wide stance, asymmetrical weight distribution, mechanical. No grace; pure function.
dimensions	Overall length: 68 cm \| Barrel assembly: 32 cm \| Pressure chamber diameter: 11 cm \| Magazine depth: 14 cm \| Width at grip: 8.5 cm
weight description	Hefty and front-heavy when unloaded (4.1 kg fully loaded). The weight shifts forward toward the barrel, demanding two-handed control. Balanced on the magazine well, it feels purposeful and grounded — no quick-draw weapon, but stable and authoritative in sustained aim.
primary material	Reinforced injection-molded polymer frame with steel pressure chamber lining. Aluminum alloy mounting rail system. Stainless steel nozzle array and canister indexing mechanism.
finish	Matte industrial grey-black polymer body with visible stress-relief ribbing. Steel pressure chamber shows brushed finish with micro-oxidation scarring from repeated pressurization cycles. Nozzle tips feature burnt bronze patina from off-gassing residue exposure.
color scheme	Gunmetal grey primary body \| Charcoal black ribbed grip zones \| Burnt copper/bronze nozzle accents \| Red pressure-release valve cap (safety indicator)
grip texture	Deeply ribbed textured polymer with aggressive ergonomic molding. Two-point grip area: side-mounted assist handle wrapped in degraded rubberized coating. Main grip is almost sandpaper-rough for wet/gloved use in riot conditions.
distinctive features	Dual pressure gauges mounted on chamber flank (red/amber/green threat-level indicators) Spring-loaded canister indexing carousel with numeric load-state engraving (1-6) Vented exhaust ports along barrel with visible carbonized residue buildup Prominent safety interlocks with manual mechanical override (corroded brass housing) Manufacturer serial plate stamped directly into polymer body — faded but legible Custom wear marks and chemical etching on nozzle tip from persistent compound exposure Integrated mounting rail (Picatinny) scarred and salt-corroded from field deployment
manufacturer markings	CARRION DEFENSE WORKS logo embossed on left side of pressure chamber \| Model designation 'MP-5' stamped above grip \| 'PLAGUE BEARER' variant tag laser-etched on barrel shroud \| Serial number and certification code on chamber flank \| Hazmat/corrosive material warning symbols on both sides of grip
condition typical	Field-worn and chemically stained. Polymer body shows stress crazing in high-impact areas. Nozzle assembly exhibits patina from repeated off-gassing events. Pressure gauges often smudged or fogged. Magazine carousel mechanism loose from wear. This is not a pristine asset — it's a working tool showing honest battle scars.

Product photography: Carrion Defense Works Miasma Projector MP-5 'Plague Bearer' lying on dark tactical mat, angled 45 degrees. Close-up of barrel assembly and nozzle array showing burnt patina and carbonized residue. Gloved hand (industrial grey tactical glove) gripping polymer body, fingers on dual pressure gauges. Dramatic side-lighting casting sharp shadows across ribbed grip zones and vented exhaust ports. Emphasis on industrial brutalism and chemical weathering — burnt copper nozzle tips glinting, pressure chamber aluminum showing micro-oxidation scars. Dark neo-noir urban aesthetic, matte surfaces, no reflective shine except on metal components. GLMZ-era field weathering visible throughout. --ar 3:2 --v 6
