Dark Legion Templar Void Cannon Specialist figure:
The Templars, despite their appearance are not human,
having been brought across great gulfs of time and space
by Ilian to fight and kill in her name. An extremely warlike
race and utterly fearless on the battlefield, they revel
in the task appointed by their Mistress.
One noteworthy weapon used by Ilian's Temple Guards would
be the Void Cannon, also known as the "Metacannon".
This massive, warped-looking weapon is distinctive for having,
suspended under the barrel, a glass sphere containing a
fetus-like creature (a "homunculus") suspended
in foul fluids, connected to the machinery of the gun by
an umbilical cord. While this creature bears a disturbing
resemblance to a human fetus, it possesses a pair of stubby
horns, and its eyes, when open, glow with an inner and unholy
light. This creature actually serves to channel the forces
of the Void to provide "ammunition" for the weapon,
which fires blasts of dark energy at its hapless targets,
and it also serves to subtly assist the firer in aiming
the weapon properly. This creature also presents a weak
point for the weapon, for if the sphere is shattered and
the homunculus slain, the weapon is robbed of its source
of power, and is therefore useless.
