## Hexen An averial soars lazily through the sky, wind in their face when the sound of a motor is heard. Bursting through a cloud is a ship with men at the rails leveling rifles. With a quick incantation, dense fog coalesces around the averial removing her from sight and in that moment a loud bang rings out, a flaming projectile splits the fog that shrouded her only moments ago, before the fog moves to fill the hole you can see her sighting down the smoking barrel of a rifle. An Orochi sitting atop a horse drawn card laden with goods crosses a bridge. The horse startles and stops as a group of rough looking dwarves emerge from beneath the bridge. They hold out their hands expecting a toll while a few circle round back to begin taking the Orochis goods. Before they can move more then a few paces the orochi pulls out four pistols and in a blur of movement fires off two quick shots sending the would be bandits scampering away through wind and fire. ### Times Are Changing Hexens are witches born into a world of technology. With new and powerful weapons available to the people , the power of the arcane must adapt or become obsolete. Gun hexens have set aside the traditional manipulation of magic which could take years to master and only some were capable of doing so to begin with, and injected the destructive tools of the modern era into their teachings, the firearm. Creating pact guns a gun hexen is able to channel their arcane powers in new ways never before dreamed of. ### Magic Augmentation Hexen augments their innate magic potential by channeling it through their firearms and crafting charms. While they have forgone traditional methods of magic, they intern lack the ability to create truly destructive displays of raw magic often associated with wizards and witches. However, they have taken and mastered simple magics with the help of charms, their skill in channeling the aether through modern guns makes up for this by taking something already deadly and making it even more so. They are effectivly a new breed of witches. ### Memories of Old While a Hexen does not practice magic in its traditional methods they have not completely washed their hands of it, but rather have made their self less reliant on it, using mostly minor level magic. They are still capable of bringing to bear bolts of lightning and creating thick miasma, but the level on which they can do so has waned. Most often this “old magic” is used to confound enemies so that they are easier targets for a well placed shot.

Dear Brother, I could hardly believe it the first time I saw it! A woman pulled out a firearm, took aim and BAM! Torrents of brimstone just exploded from the barrel! I was not expecting that.

\pagebreakNum ## Marksman The aim of your training has been to deliver death from a distance, as great a distance as you can. But snipers are as diverse as they are dangerous.

I wait in the shadows for you to appear, looking down my barrel I see my target clear. One moment a soldier with heart and head, the next just a corpse on the field of the dead. -A Marksmans Poem

# Firearms ##### Guns & Explosives
The first firearms were crude things, little more then tubes stuffed with smokepowder, shot, and a wick. They were incredibly unaccurate, ineficient, and cumbersome. Despite all their flaws, they were revolutionary, and the framework for the firearms of today. Artificers, clockmakers, smiths, they have all played a part in improving designs over the years to what they are today. With the invention of rifling, wheelocks and so on these weapons are accurate, deadly, and easy to use. These potent weapons can pack a serious punch, but often trade power for speed in more basic versions. Tinkerers have begun to innovate more effecient loading mechanisms, as such, lever action and cylinder based firearms are slowly turning up in markets, often at a high price. Most folk can find themselves in possesion of a firearms, and makes for easier hunting and protecting ones self. Unlike a sword or axe which to use well can take years of practice, a firearm \columnbreak
Along with the invention of firearms has come portable explosives. These bombs as they are called, utilize gunpowder in the most basic form, allowing even the most magic inept to conjure up the power of a fireball. Other bombs have been packed with ball bearings or caltrops to create deadly shrapnel that rips through everything in the blast radius. There is no doubt even deadlier, more ppowperful explosives are being worked on right now and will one day make themselves known. Additionally these explosives have proven valuable in mining expiditions and construction. These bombs have allowed one to dig deeper and faster, as well as move more dirt in a shorter amount of time allowing construction or demolitions to be expidited. Some exploring companies have made names for themselves thanks to explposives clearing the way to a once inaccesible tomb, while others take pride in having a seemingly endless supply of bombs which they gleefully use to blow away beasts. \pagebreakNum

\pagebreakNum ### Pistols The smallest and most compact firearm, the pistol is also one of the rarest firearms, as most people not only prefer firearms with longer range, but the pistol itself requires greater craftsmanship to craft. Despite its short range, a pistol is still a formidable weapon, and is often used as a self-defense weapon. Due to this, pistol grips often have metal butts that allow them to be used as effective clubs. ***Flintlock:*** These simple pistols use flint to strike a spark and ignite the powder to propel the shot. Basic and easily crafted, these are a common sidearm. ***Starwheel:*** These flintlock variants use a wheel mechanism to have multiple powder charges prepared, allowing them too make multiple shots before reloading. Typically these have an over and under barrel allowing for two rapid shots. ***Pepperbox:*** This pistol uses a number of pre-loaded rotating barrels to allow for multiple rapid shots before reloading. The predecessor to the Revolver. ***Revolver:*** These pistols use a rottating cylinder loaded with cartridges to rapidly fire multiple shots. Gunslingers and outlaws prefer this sidearm, and those who can afford it for personal protection. ***Castor:*** These new arcane arms as they are refered to are crafted from crystals and precious gems and ore to channel raw magic. They are prized popssesion among those who employ them, and come in different designs as well as firing different elemental shots, from fire to acid. ### Rifles These long guns are the prefered firearm of hunters and marksman. While more cumbersome then a pistol, its stopping power and range more then make up for its size. ***Musket.*** A marskman's gun, a musket has long barrel three to four feet long and a heavy wooden stock, allowing for greater accuracy than all other firearms. ***Arquebus.*** A scaled down version of the much larger musket, the arquebus is the long gun most adventurers are likely to encounter, as it strikes a good balance between size and power. An arquebus usually has a full stock, but many only have a cut-down stock. ***Caliver.*** Essentially half-way between a musket and an arquebus, a caliver has a higher bore and heavier barrel than the arquebus, but is otherwise identical in design. ***Bolt Action:*** These rifles use a bolt mechanism to reload and firmly secure the cartridge, allowing for more accurecy over a greater distance. These are prized among sharp shooters. ***Lever Action:*** This short rifle fire smaller cartridges then its bolt action cousin and has a shorter range, but can send more round down range before needing to reload. A favored rifle among explorers. ***Aether Rod:*** This arcane arm is crafted of crystals and rare gems and metal to harness the raw power of the arcane and fire elemental shot. These rifles have incredible range and stopping power. These rare weapons are as much a work of art as they are technology. \columnbreak ### Shotgun These rugged firearms are so named for the "shot" they fire, often a wad of pellets or ball bearings that quickly spread over a short distance. While the nature of the gun gives them limited range, the destructive power and fear caused by their roar makes up for this. ***Blunderbuss.*** The shortest of the long guns, a blunderbuss only has a barrel around one foot long, sometimes less, which often ends in a flared muzzle. Most blunderbusses have a full stock, but some are made with only a pistol grip. These shotguns can use almost anything you can jam into the barrel as ammunition. ***Scattergun:*** These double barrled shotguns come in both over and under and side by side designs and offer the wielder a pair of shot before reloading. The preferred weapon of many travelers and busniess owners for quiting down the rabble. ***Rumbler:*** These single barrel shotguns use a lever action feed to rapidly fire multiple shots before a reload is required. The favored weapon of many town guards and scoundrels. ***Thunderer:*** These arcane shotguns, like other arcane arms are often made from crystals and rare ores to harness the unique power that fuels them. The most common element type for these are thunder, hence the name sake. Elite mercenaries, kingsmen and the wealthy are known to posses these rare wonders. ### Explosives ***Grenade.*** A grenade is a ball-sized iron spheres packed with gunpowder and fitted with a slow-burning wick. As an action, a creature can light a grenade and throw it at a point up to 60 feet away. Each creature within 5 feet of that point must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw, taking 3d6 piercing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. ***Foeshredder.*** A foeshredder is a specialized grenade with an attached handle, allowing it to be thrown twice as far. A foeshredder functions identically to a grenade except that it can be thrown up to 120 feet away. ***Smokebomb.*** A smokebomb consists of a wooden tube filled with alchemical compounds and smokepowder. As an action, a creature can light a smokebomb and throw it at a point up to 60 feet away. One round after a smokebomb lands, it emits a cloud of smoke that creates a heavily obscured area in a 20-foot radius. A moderate wind (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses the smoke in 4 rounds; a strong wind (20 or more miles per hour) disperses it in 1 round. ***Sun Maker:*** A sun maker is a wooden tube filled with alchemical compounds. As an action a creature can throw a sun maker up to 60 feet which detonates on impact. Each creature within 15 feet must make a Dexterity saving throw DC 14. On a fail the creature is blinded and deafened for 1 round. \pagebreakNum ### Weapon Properties ***Spread.*** When attacking a target within half this weapon's normal range, roll an additional damage die and add it to the weapon’s damage. When fired at long range, you may apply the attack roll to an additional creature within 5 feet of the target. Roll damage against the secondary target separately. **Explosive:** Each creature within a number of feet indicated next to the explosive property are subject to the weapons effect. **Special Loading:** Arcane Arms have a number of charges that are used as ammunition. In order to refill these charges they must go unused for a total of 8 hours. **Special Damage:** Arcane Arms can do any damage type, though each one will do only one type which would have been selected on its creation. ### Missing with Explosives If you want an element of risk to the use of explosives, treat them as improvised Ranged Weapons with a range of 30/90 ft. and which require an attack roll to throw accurately. If the target is a square with a creature in it, use the creature's AC. If the target is a square with an object in it, such as a table, use the "Object Armor Class" rules on page 246 of the DMG. If the target is an empty square, treat it as having an AC of 10. If a character misses the attack roll, the explosive rolls, bounces, or otherwise ends up in a different square than the target's. First, roll a d8. The result determines the direction in which the explosive misses.

Once the direction is determined, roll 1d4 (or 2d4 if the target was within long range). The result is the number of squares in the determined direction by which the explosive misses its mark.
\columnbreak ### Magic Ammunition ##### Baldrick Bullet _Weapon, uncommon (cursed)_ ___ You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic bullet. ___ **Curse.** When someone makes an attack with this magic bullet, the bullet flies in an arc and attempts to harm the user instead of the target. Compare the attack roll to the user's own AC rather than that of their target. If the attack exceeds their AC, they are hit by the attack instead of the target. If it does not, the bullet still attempts to hit them, but they narrowly avoid being harmed by it. This magic bullet appears to be a normal +1 bullet when examined. This bullet is not rendered non-magical after use, only a _remove curse_ spell can render it non-magical. ##### Illumination Bullet _Weapon, uncommon_ ___ This magic bullet causes the target to glow like a torch for 10 rounds (1 minute). If fired into the air, it slowly falls back down to the ground whilst emitting light like a torch. It descents at a rate of 60 ft. per turn, down from the firearm's maximum range, and stops glowing after 10 rounds (1 minute). Once fired, the bullet is rendered non-magical. ##### Explosive Bullet _Weapon, rare_ ___ This magic bullet explodes in a great ball of fire on impact. Each creature in a 20-foot-radius sphere around the point where it strikes must make a DC 15 Dexterity save. Each affected creature takes 6d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half on a success. The fire spreads around corners and ignites flammable objects that aren't being worn or carried. Once detonated, the bullet is destroyed. ##### Poisonous Bullet _Weapon, rare_ ___ A creature struck by this magic bullet must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or take 2d10 poison damage and become poisoned for 1 minute. After dealing its poison damage, the bullet is rendered non-magical. ##### Named Bullet _Weapon, very rare_ ___ A named bullet is a magic bullet meant to slay a particular person and only that person. A named bullet functions as an _arrow of slaying_ with a very focused target (a single, specific creature). Additionally, a named bullet has advantage on attack rolls made against its intended target. After dealing additional damage to its intended target, the bullet is rendered non-magical. \pagebreakNum
##### Assassin Firearm *Weapon (any Pistol or Rifle), rare* ___ This firearm is made of blued steel and ebony wood, and handling it seems to produce no sound, not even when it brushes against other objects. You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. Additionally, attacks made with this magical firearm produce no visible flash or audible noise. ##### Dragon Pistol _Weapon (pistol), rare (requires attunement)_ ___ This pistol has a flared muzzle decorated to look like a dragon's gaping maw, and the rest of the barrel is covered in small scales. Whenever you make an attack with this magic weapon, all creatures within 5 ft. of where it strikes must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or take 3d6 fire damage. ##### Gunblade *Weapon (any pistol), common* ___ This melee weapon has a pistol mechanism carefully built into it, and is created in such a way that it's perfectly balanced to be used as both a melee weapon and as a pistol. This magic weapon can be used either as normal, or it can be used as a pistol, without the need to switch weapons. The pistol mechanism must still be reloaded as normal. Variants such as axe and halberds exist, often using a rifle or shotgun as the prefered base. ##### Quipper Pistol _Weapon (starwheel pistol), rare (requires attunement)_ ___ This pistol is designed to vaguely resemble a quipper fish. Its barrel is covered in scales and stylized fins, and ends in a fanged maw resembling a quipper's. Whenever you make an attack with this magic weapon, the weapon unleashes repeated volleys of pellets. Instead of making an attack roll against the target's AC, the target must make a Dexterity saving throw against a DC of 8 + your attack bonus. On a failed saving throw the target takes 2d10 points of damage, plus your dexterity modifier, or half as much on a successful one. Targets at long range have advantage on this saving throw. \columnbreak
##### Repeating Arquebus _Weapon (arquebus), rare_ ___ This arquebus has two hollow tubes inside the stock.
One tube can be filled with seven attacks worth of _smokepowder_ and the other with seven loads of
ammunition, in addition to the _smokepowder_ and bullet
that can be loaded down the barrel. If you lower this magic weapon after making an attack with it, the clockwork mechanism inside of it rotates the chamber to align with the powder tube, allowing it to fill with powder, before aligning with the second tube, allowing it load ammunition. When you then raise the firearm, the chamber aligns itself with the barrel, allowing you to fire the loaded ammunition without the need to reload. Each bullet and powder charger can be loaded separately as normal, or all eight can be loaded as an action. If you load the ammunition tube with a mixture of enchanted ammunition, the firearm will load them into the chamber in the same order in which they were loaded into the tube. ##### Spellsniper Musket _Weapon (starwheel musket), rare (requires attunement by an)_ ___ This musket is made of a stark white, smooth material, similar to ivory, and etched with intricate, arcane patterns. As an action, you can use this weapon to perform a spellstrike. A spellstrike is similar to a ranged weapon attack, except that you cast a single offensive cantrip as part of the attack. This cantrip must be one that has a casting time of 1 action, deals damage to one or more targets, and has a range greater than 10 feet. If the attack hits, the target takes both the damage of the musket and the damage of the cantrip, even if the cantrip would normally require a saving throw to harm a target. If the cantrip normally harms multiple targets, then the spellstrike only harms the target of the musket attack. A spellsniper musket counts as an arcane focus, and you can provide somatic components for spellcasting even while holding it with two hands. \pagebreakNum ##### Winter’s Breath *Weapon (scattergun or shotgun), rare (requires attunement)* ___ You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. This shotgun is cold to the touch, and frost gathers on it any time it is not in direct sunlight. Any time an attack from Winter’s Breath hits a target, it takes an additional 1d6 cold damage. ##### Fancy Firearm **Weapon (any firearm), very rare (requires attunement)** ___ You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. This highly decorative gun is a symbol of wealth and status, inlaid with precious metals, mother-of-pearl, and other accents that speak of the wielder’s influential position. While carrying this weapon, you gain a +2 bonus to your Charisma score, and if someone sees the gun for the first time, you have advantage on all Charisma-based ability checks made against them for 1 minute. \pagebreakNum # Change Log ## 1/8/21 - 1/17/21 - Added level pre-reqs on charms - Did first spelling comb through - Added the ability to teleport with attack and spell use with the *Phase Rush* Arcane Slinger feature to bring its power in line with the level. - Replaced the Arcane Slinger feature Aether Shield with Temporal anchor to dial in on the higher mobility concept of the subclass. - ~~Replaced Rail Gun with Unerring Shot to bring features power level in line.~~ Removed Unerring shot to reduce subclass progression from 5 stages to 4. - Replaced Dead Eye with Seeking Shot - Mirror Charms amount of clones reduced from 8 to 5. - Stitching Blast changed to not so closely resemble Briar Blast - Tweaked wording on Flame Gout - Added new Blast Dawn Hammer and Hydra - Added list of firearms - Added enchanted firearms for loot drop ideas - Removed "Blast" from naming convention of blasts for more punchy names. - Changed name to Gun Hexe from Gun Hexen. - \columnbreak ## Ideas - Rework and add blasts.
