The Voidweaver is a mobile gun platform armed with 2 [[shuriken cannon]]s, one is under-slung beneath the front of the vehicle and the second is rear-facing and mounted on the platform on the top of the Voidweaver. They may also be armed with either a pintle-mounted [[Haywire Cannon]] or a prismatic cannon as well as 3 banks of [[Mirage Launcher]]s.{{Fn|1}}
Even the location of the Voidweaver's aft weapon possesses a ritual significance for the Harlequins. The vehicle itself is named after the second of the [[Cosmic Serpent]]'s brood. Legend tells that in his older brother [[Starweaver]]'s shadow, Voidweaver became ill-tempered and brooding. It would fight at the slightest provocation and reveled in proving its superiority. Its caution became such that it spouted a second head, looking always behind so that he would never be surprised. In the old stories, this serpent never allowed [[Cegorach]] top ride upon its back, but after the Laughing God bested it in a trial of cunning the Voidweaver lent its strength to the Harlequins, acting as a sentry and accomplice.{{Fn|2}}
