This rifle goes beyond all that engineering itself can manage in a weapon. Combining the arcane powers of a spell caster and the firepower of the most advanced munitions, this rifle that looks like a large cannon with gears and tubes constantly flowing with arcane magic is only able to be fired by an arcane spell caster. When fired this rifle shoots a single arcane bolt that acts as a magic missile including range, and automatically hits dealing 1d4 +Int Modifier force damage. The spell caster can expend one of their spell slots to fire extra bolts as though they cast Magic Missile at the level of the spell slot used. This weapon is magical and is impervious to destruction. Extra parts can be found for this weapon (Scope, Force Magnifier, Double Barrel)
Upon using the Attack Action to fire this weapon, the user can select to cast normally or from the selected options below if the extra parts have been installed.
Scope: Doubles Weapon Range, Increases Critical Damage to x3
Force Magnifier: Allows damage to be dealt in an 10ft Diameter at half range or less
Double Barrel: Fires 15ft cone, all creatures inside cone must make a Strength Saving Throw against the user's Spell Save DC or be pushed back 20ft.
It’s up to you to decide whether a character has proficiency with a firearm. Characters in most D&D worlds wouldn’t have such proficiency. During their downtime, characters can use the training rules in the Player’s Handbook to acquire proficiency, assuming that they have enough ammunition to keep the weapons working while mastering their use.
This weapon has the following mastery property. To use this property, you must have a feature that lets you use it.
