 * The Tysis can stretch targets if they are already pinned to the wall by certain weapons (like the Boltor).
 * This is the second Infested weapon that has ever been sold in the Market. The first is the Mire.
 * This is also the first Infested sidearm not to be clan-exclusive.
 * The Tysis may derive its name from the suffix "-ptysis", which typically refers to spitting out a substance (i.e. Hemoptysis would refer to spitting blood).
 * The head of the Tysis vaguely resembles the head of a Goblin shark.
 * The Tysis' overall shape and function bears similarities to the Needler from the Halo franchise, albeit with different mechanics.
