Spend Your Loot on a Hammer


Hammers are more than simple implements—they are the trusted companions of asteroid miners, boundary wardens, and the enigmatic order of Rift-Smiths. Commonly crafted with reinforced alloy heads, magnetic stabilizers, and micro-tracking gyroscopes, Starfall hammers deliver devastating force in both close-quarters combat and industrial-scale operations. The galaxy’s most renowned crafters inscribe their hammers with crystalline circuitry, allowing the weapon to resonate with latent Mana flows or emit a shockwave that can disrupt shielding fields and robotic foes alike.

  • Standard Hammer: Ubiquitous on backwater worlds, these hammers are forged from scavenged ship plating or asteroid iron, sometimes fitted with a tachyon-stabilized core.

  • Battle Hammer: Standard issue to Guild enforcers and station marines; features a telescopic haft, laced with Vibrotronic filaments for cutting through exosuits.

  • Legendary Models: hammers wielded by Rift Knights and Forge-Priests are rare works of art, sporting gravitic repulsors and inertial amplifiers for enhanced striking power, with legends claiming some incorporate fragments of Voidstone or encoded relic data.

Hammers are valued not just for their utility but for their legacy as symbols of creation, protection, and renewal among frontier cultures—universal tools for survival amid the stars.​

  • Upgrades & Customization: Hammers often accept a mix of mundane mods, advanced tech upgrades, and Mana fusions—perfect for creative tinkerers and cosmic blacksmiths alike.

  • Symbolic Value: Owning a named or masterwork hammer may carry unique narrative weight or social influence within certain guilds or planetary cultures.​
