Eckersley's Panic-Fired Sawn-Off Shotgun

A brutish double-barreled shotgun wielded by Eckersley in his final moments, its stubby barrels spitting buckshot wildly at the revived Aggedor. The weapon’s oiled wood stock bears scratches from hurried possession, while its shortened barrels amplify recoil with every panicked shot. The cold metal bites into Eckersley’s grip as his desperation outpaces his aim, striking Aggedor only once before misfires and exhaustion render it inert.
