The Xenarch death-arc is an electrical weapon created by the shadowy Xenarch of the Northern Rim.[1]

Death-arc's are a potent, rifle-sized weapon that unleash a series of arcing bolts of lightning towards the target. If any of these bolts (which are deadly in their own right) strike their target, the death-arc channels a far-more powerful arc of electricity along their path, blasting the victim into pieces. The weapon's charge cells and capacitors utilise technology far beyond anything the Adeptus Mechanicus can manufacture, making the weapons highly prized.[1][2]
