I’m suggesting Particle Beam Emission. Particle acceleration can be used to launch a stream of particles like atoms and electrons at speeds close to that of light. The Beam Rifle in Halo is what I have in mind, though it’s not actually a “particle beam”. On the Halo wiki it says that the weapon technically fires a shot or burst of particles rather than a beam; the distinction is that a beam has to be able to cut through material if you strafe to the side while firing. In that case firing a constant stream of particles would make it a beam. It just so happens that the Beam Rifle is limited to shots. A user with the particle acceleration ability wouldn’t necessarily have that limitation. What do you think?
