Gunfighter (Gunslinger Variant)

A gunfighter is an inventor, innovator and deadeye all rolled into one. Long nights are spent tinkering with powerful firearms in the pursuit of creating a more perfect weapon. But a gunfighter isn't happy just to wile away the hours in a workshop – they need to test their inventions in the field, leading them to seek adventure and danger anywhere they might find it, using their deadly creations and quick wits to great effect wherever they roam!
