Crafted from melting down a single bahamut holy symbol, this small cannon of Grongs is carved with markings that tell his story of saving those he called allies, and being there for those who were in need, even when the odds were stacked against him. Now the sigil of Grong Firebleeder on the side of the barrel. However, you also see Gimp the Imp upon Grong's massive shoulders on the opposite side as well.
Sentience. Azril's Hammer Cannon is a sentient Lawful evil weapon with an Intelligence of 18, a Wisdom of 18, and a Charisma of 18. It has hearing and darkvision out to a range of 120 feet. You now gain its own abilities. You have fully unlocked the power that was Gimp the Imp and thus he has spoken to his lord Archdevil Grong Firebleeder, and Lord Archdevil Grong Firebleeder answered, and has chosen you as his champion.
The weapon communicates telepathically with its wielder and can speak, read, and understand Abyssal, Common, and Infernal.
Personality. A covetous imp named Gimp "The Imp" lives within Azril's Hammer Cannon. The weapon values saving comrades and destroying hypocrisy within All Churches. It compliments its wielder whenever they save a comrade in arms and slays any priests of any Church not aligned with the Nine Hells.
You can now also, choose to summon Gimp the Imp who has the same stats as an Imp familiar. He will do anything you ask, however, once he is killed or runs out of souls. He returns to the Nine Hells to report everything to his master. Thus he will not be summonable for 24 hours afterward.
You now learn the truth about Gimp the Imp, the Dungeon Master will give a full accounting of his life prior to being sealed within this imps body. You also now learn that a man by the name of Kyle of the Discount Avengers is the one and true Holy Religious head of Grong Firebleeder's church in which they focus on helping those who are hungry and without. This all done without any need for them to worship or work with the church. But rather to assist those in need. You also learn of any holy order that currently serves Grong Firebleeder.
All this info about the item will immediately be forgotten as well as all memories of the item being with the attuned if ill intent is ever found toward Grong Firebleeder by the attuned.
This Small cannon is imbued with magic. It requires no ammunition and doesn’t need to be loaded. It takes one action to aim the cannon and one action to fire it. After the cannon has fired, it must recharge for 10 minutes before it can be fired again.
The creature firing the cannon chooses the effect from the following options once per day:
Acid Jet. The cannon discharges acid in a line 300 feet long and 5 feet wide. Each creature in that line must make a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw, taking ([roll]6d10[/roll]) acid damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. In addition, a creature that fails its saving throw takes ([roll]4d10[/roll]) acid damage at the start of each of its turns; a creature can end this damage by using its action to wash off the acid with a pint or more of water.
Fire Jet. The cannon discharges fire in a line 300 feet long and 5 feet wide. Each creature in the area must make a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw, taking ([roll]8d10[/roll]) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The fire ignites any flammable objects in the area that aren’t being worn or carried.
Frost Shot. The cannon shoots a ball of frost to a point you can see within 1,200 feet of the cannon. The ball then expands to form a 30-foot-radius sphere centered on that point. Each creature in that area must make a DC 18 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes ([roll]6d10[/roll]) cold damage, and its speed is reduced by 10 feet for 1 minute. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage, and its speed isn’t reduced. A creature whose speed is reduced by this effect can repeat the save at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Lightning Shot. The cannon shoots a ball of lightning to a point you can see within 1,200 feet of the cannon. The lightning then expands to form a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on that point. Each creature in that area must make a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw, taking ([roll]7d10[/roll]) lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Creatures wearing metal armor have disadvantage on the save.
Poison Spray. The cannon expels poison gas in a 60-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 18 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes ([roll]6d10[/roll]) poison damage and is poisoned for 1 minute. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage and isn’t poisoned. A creature poisoned in this way can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Firearms are a new and volatile technology, and as such bring their own unique set of weapon properties. Some properties are followed by a number, and this number signifies an element of that property (outlined below). These properties replace the optional ones presented in the Dungeon Master’s Guide. Firearms are ranged weapons.
Reload. The weapon can be fired a number of times equal to its Reload score before you must spend 1 attack or 1 action to reload. You must have one free hand to reload a firearm.
Misfire. Whenever you make an attack roll with a firearm, and the dice roll is equal to or lower than the weapon’s Misfire score, the weapon misfires. The attack misses, and the weapon cannot be used again until you spend an action to try and repair it. To repair your firearm, you must make a successful Tinker’s Tools check (DC equal to 8 + misfire score). If your check fails, the weapon is broken and must be mended out of combat at a quarter of the cost of the firearm. Creatures who use a firearm without being proficient increase the weapon’s misfire score by 1.
Explosive. Upon a hit, everything within 5 ft of the target must make a Dexterity saving throw (DC equal to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Dexterity modifier) or suffer 1d8 fire damage. If the weapon misses, the ammunition fails to detonate, or bounces away harmlessly before doing so.
Ammunition
All firearms require ammunition to make an attack, and due to their rare nature, ammunition may be near impossible to find or purchase. However, if materials are gathered, you can craft ammunition yourself using your Tinker’s Tools at half the cost. Each firearm uses its own unique ammunition and is generally sold or crafted in batches listed below next to the price.
