Even among the Descendants, there existed especially gifted snipers. However, there was a lack of research on specialized weapons for these talented snipers. Only recently was a new weapon announced that contained many of the current technologies. The new weapon was the "Afterglow Sword." It was named to commemorate Neil Neldor, the legendary sniper nicknamed the Nightmare Reaper. It boasts high accuracy and lethality, making it the perfect weapon to strike fear into the enemy's heart. This weapon uses the new .377 Afterglow Rounds, a bullet that penetrates enemies with razor-sharp precision and burrows into the body to inflict mortal wounds. It was clearly made to celebrate a Reaper.
