The sketch isn't great, I did it quick and only had a pen. All that is shaded would be a green cloth, same as Variks House of Judgement cloak
Judgement of Kells v2 https://imgur.com/gallery/eCTL8eL
This one is slightly better
This is the Hand Cannon Variks gave to Cayde in the Most Loyal lore book.
Judgement of Kell's
Flavor text: "You shall be their Judge, Jury, and Executioner," Variks
Archetype: 120 rpm Hand Cannon
Arc
Intrinsic: Judgement's Hand
Precision final blows and final blows against Fallen enemies grant stacks of "Etheric Empowerment". Each stack grants increased handling and stability. Max of 5
Secondary: Ether Tech Trigger
At three stacks of "Etheric Empowerment" hold square to activate Ether Tech Trigger, consuming the three stacks. When active, the next trigger pull fires high damage two round burst (Kills with Ether Tech Trigger active do not grant stacks of "Etheric Empowerment") [you only get one burst per activation]
Additional perks:
Outlaw
Range Finder
Stats: [Have been edited farther down it post]
Impact: 92
Range: 65
Stability: 45
Handling: 38
Reload Speed: 30
Magazine: 8
Catalyst: Grants 2 stacks of "Etheric Empowerment" per kill, OR, grants either Ambitious Assassin or Subsistence.
I have thought about making the Judgement's Hand perk act similar to the Thorn and Lumina, as in it spawns a buff that you then have to go and pick up, but I feel that would seriously hamper the weapon. I did the stats off the top of my head, so if the are not very balanced, feel free to point that out. Yes, Ether Tech Trigger is a two tap. I might add a sketch later.
Edit: You know what, let's give it some chonky stats so it would be able to better compete with Sturm
Impact: 92
Range: 84
Stability: 45
Handling:40
Reload Speed: 35
Edit 2: I came up with a quest to get it as well.
Judgement of Kells quest
Step one: Speak to Variks
Variks tasks you with finding data pad that he left in the Prison of Elders.
"He seemed very concerned about finding this pad, I wonder what is so important about it," Ghost
Step two: Find the data pad in the Prison of Elders strike
"It is heavily encrypted, it would take me days to crack it. I hope Variks has the right key codes this time," Ghost
Step three: Speak with Variks
Variks spends a few moments working on the data pad, then with a sigh, hands it to you. It plays an audio clip from Cayde-6, "hey Variks, that hand cannon you gave me is a beut, absolutely slays in the Crucible. If one of my friends, mainly the strong silent one, asks about it, deliver rewards asap into Nessus. They will know what to do."
Variks explains that this data pad was his personal link to Cayde, and that he received the message shortly before inciting the prison riot. In the following chaos, he had lost it.
"I know it doesn't make up for what happened [insect like chattering], but it's a start," Variks
Step four: Find Cayde's stash
"Why was he so good at hiding these things," Ghost
(When you find the stash it is empty. Ghost tells you to look up. There is a Vandal, Haviks, the Aspirant, standing far above you holding his fancy new gun)
Step five: Find Haviks
Defeat Fallen across the system to gather Intel on the Aspirant's location
25 Earth
25 Europa
25 Tangled Shore
"Haviks was one of the Queens personal guards, it seems he is following his own orders now," Variks
Step six: Defeat Haviks
Travel to Sjurest and defeat Haviks
"Another who would see the Traveler fall has been dealt with, but be wary, there will always be another [wheezing]," Variks, the Loyal

Not a bad idea, but would the stacks be consumed or removed under a certain condition, or would they persist until death?
-
Great idea. But there are a lot of exotic hand cannons in the game, so maybe it’s a sidearm?
-
I don't get why people are so butt mad about weapon types... I wa t the game in a state where you can use what you want to... A 50+ weapon meta if everything is broken then nothing is.

I want this. Sturm being the only exotic 120 is a crime, especially given that it forces you to forego using special ammo to make the most of it.
