I'm currently playing a futuristic campaign where we are basically just short of space travel. Technology to create pocket dimensions (it's bigger on the inside), Lasers, Shields, Robots, Artificial intelligence, Cyber-Implants, and all of that fun stuff (minus teleportation devices) exist!
While the majority of people use bullet-based guns, I have a friend who wants to play a melee Bounty Hunter-esk character. Aside from the obvious laser-sword (basically a lightsaber) and taser baton, anyone have good ideas for a melee future weapon for this character or her trusty companion (either a bear or a wolf, haven't decided yet)? This would be a dexterity based character.
So far I've considered things like energy blades that attach to the wrist and Gloves or a hammer that releases a concussive force to throw a person when it makes contact, but my creative juice seem to be running dry at the moment.
Alternatively, if you can think of any cool cybernetic implants that could be cool that would work as well.
