Editing Ishuzan Stormborn (section)

=== Wargear ===
With their planet being constantly covered in intense lightning storms, the Ishuzans are masters at manipulating energy. Each Stormborn is expected to bring his own weaponry, their iconic power shields and storm pikes. These are typically mass-produced, but are individualized by each recruit during his time as a hunter. The planetary government provides the rest of the equipment, including the high-collared flak jackets and portable power plant used to power their armaments.  

'''Tempest Shield'''

Perhaps the most iconic part of the Stormborn armory, the "Il-Fen" pattern power shield, or more commonly known as Tempest Shields are an important part of Ishuzan culture as well. Each hunter is given one on his first hunt, and is expected to stand at the critical point of the shield wall that will be required to ensure the surface and bring down their prey. Made from the shells of massive worms native to the surface of Ishuze, they are very durable and can absorb tremendous amounts of energy. The Stormborn like to boast that their shields to be nigh-indestructible. Given the brutal nature of the universe, this is not true, but outlive their owners. 

'''Storm Pike'''

Traditionally known as an "Shanban" or more simply as an Zap Stick among outsiders, it is perhaps the most prominently used weapon on Ishuze - one reason is practicality. It was first used as a tool by hunters and builders alike, but those who watch Stormborn burn through their foes can attest to their effectiveness in combat. While they are operate similarly to plasma weaponry, they do so on a much smaller scale. A storm pike is thus safer to use, but is only slightly more destructive than a bolter. However, if a sufficient charge is built, the iridescent beam released can burn through power armor.
