5e Gunslinger Full Class

<!--

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~COOL IDEAS~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At 3rd level, you can use a bonus action to channel the power of your deity to cause a firearm you are holding to burn with holy radiance for 1 minute or until your concentration ends (as if concentrating on a spell). While your firearm burns, once on your turn when you hit with an attack from your firearm, you can deal an additional 1d8 radiant damage. This additional damage becomes 2d8 if the target is a fiend or undead.

### Grimace
When you take up this Gunslinger Code at 3rd level, you become a walking manifestation of defiance. As an action on your turn, you can make a Charisma (intimidation) check directed at a creature within 45 feet of you who makes a contesting Wisdom (insight) check. If you win, you gain a Bravado point and the creature cannot willingly move closer to you. Additionally, you can attack the creature with your firearm as a bonus action.

### Lone Ranger
You fight best when alone. When you make an attack while no allies are within 30 feet of you, you roll an additional damage die if the attack hits.

### Cheat Death
At 5th level, you can expend 3 Bravado when you are reduced to 0 hit points to drop to 1 hit point instead.

grenadier subclass

rodeo-esque performer - gun spinning (concentration ability that buffs something)

"Horror from the pale" - cthulu horror subclass (mutated gunslinger)

Daredevil

Trophy Hunter/Bounty Hunter - tracking shot

Inventor - tripod/put gun in autoturret/mobile turret A "heavy" subclass with a suppressive fire feature that requires concentration

Time slowdown/matrix gunslinger/bullet time

##### Devastating Shot
When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend a number of Bravado up to your proficiency bonus to cause the round to deal increased damage. If the attack hits, the target takes a number of d6s of damage equal to the number of Bravado spent.

wrist gun/hidden gun

exploding gun gauntlet

dualing rules

The Smoke - witch gunner that curses people

# Gunslinger

###

"I'm telling you Kor, the Violet Gambler came to town yestermornin'. Was talking something fierce of vengeance or some such for his dead wife," The half-elf man claims to the human tavern keeper, "we'll be dead before sunrise if you don't close down shop."

The tavern keeper cocks an eyebrow in what could be perceived as curiosity, but is assuredly a poor attempt at faking interest, "The Violet Gambler ain't nothin' but an old wives tale. I wouldn't worry about nothin, Obbi."

Almost out of spite, the front door to the saloon swings open with a creak followed by the deliberately heavy, announcing footfalls of a man wearing protective hides and a bandolier. The pub silents as the stranger struts forward, his spurs thudding against the wood floor and a purple mask of porcelain across his face. The Violet Gambler sits at the bar and raps a knuckle twice on the wooden surface, "two shots, four copper for the trouble."

###
 
A half-orc man throws his cards down in rage, leveling a pistol at the dealer as the other three-dragon ante players recoil in fear.

Two human men stand back to back as a crowd of onlookers watch in apprehension. A gun is fired into the air as each of the two combatants take their steps apart, "One... two... three... Draw!" and they squeeze the trigger and send their rounds and wills across the duel site.

A torch is lit and thrown down a dried up well in an abandoned town. *If there's treasure to be found, you'd be damn sure I'm the one to find it,* the old halfling thought to himself as he placed a hand on his rifle and descended into the dusty aquifer.

The Gunslinger is one who takes matters into their own hands by using weapons few have heard of and even fewer can wield as they can. To be a Gunslinger is to take up a moral code and to inscribe into each and every bullet fired a purpose for the round being flung down range. Nothing is to be wasted, all is to be gained by these rough-and-tumble desperados.

### Masters of an Obscure Craft
Firearms are a rarity in most 5th edition settings and as a master of such obscure weaponry, most Gunslinger's are hesitant to reveal their hand too quickly. In some ways they are tactically minded, in others their raw charisma and skill for manipulation keep them out of trouble. Gunslingers come in all shapes and creeds, some preferring to keep at range and fire round after round from the saftey of a piece of cover while others rush into danger, guns akimbo.

### Lone Wolves
While plenty of Gunslingers do gang together, many others are alone in their tasks as they roam from town to town causing trouble and escaping by the skin of their teeth. When a Gunslinger does join a group, however, the bond between party members is normally the reason they choose to stick around. Good people are rare to find, good family is rarer still.

\columnbreak

### Creating a Gunslinger
As a Gunslinger, consider where you acquired and learned to wield such an obscure weapon type. Did you train with a master Gunslinger or did you steal the blueprints to create such a weapon and craft it yourself? Were you a part of the local military that began to adopt firearms as a legitimate combat option or were you part of the roving bands of vagabonds such a task force would be tasked to stop?

### Quick Build
You can build a Gunslinger quickly by following these suggestions. First, make Strength or Dexterity your highest ability score, depending on whether you want to use larger, closer ranged weaponry or whether you would like to keep an eagle's eye on the target from a distance. Your next highest score should be Intelligence or Charisma as either you cunning or your guile are key to keeping you alive.

- *(a)* leather armor or *(b)* scale mail
- *(a)* a dungeoneer’s pack or *(b)* an explorer’s pack

> ##### Multiclassing and the Gunslinger
> If your group uses the optional rule of multiclassing in the *Player's Handbook*, here's what you need to know if you choose Gunslinger as one of your classes. <br>
>***Ability Score Minimum.*** As a multiclass character, you must have at least a 13 in either Strength or Dexterity and a 13 in either Intelligence or Charisma to take a level in this class, or to take a level in another class if you are already a Gunslinger. <br>
>***Proficiencies Gained.*** If gunslinger isn't your initial class, here are the proficiencies you gain when you take your first Gunslinger level: light armor, firearms, tinker's tools, and smith's tools.

<!--

## Optional Class Features

### Kit Gun
Once you reach 6th level, you have finished crafting your first personalized firearm: a Kit Gun. The Kit Gun has an appearance heavily resembling a type of traditional firearm, but you decide what sort of visual quirks or accessories it has. Rules for creating a Kit Gun can be found at the end of the class description.

You can only have one Kit Gun created at any given time. You can completely change your Kit Gun when you gain a level in this class.

You can create one additional Kit Gun, to a total of two, when you reach 17th level in this class. -->

\pagebreakNum

## Optional Class Features

### Kit Guns
At 6th level, you have created your magnum opus: a customized fire arm. The rules for creating such a weapon are in the Kit Guns section at the end of the class description. Should you break your Kit Gun or be otherwise unable to retrieve it, you can recreate it over a workweek and spending a number of gold pieces equal to 100 x the gold piece cost listed for the weapon's ammunition. You may only have one Kit Gun created at any time. When you first create a Kit Gun and whenever you gain an Ability Score Increase in this class, you can also create one Attachment that takes up no more than one Attachment Slot. The list of attachments can be found at the end of the class description.

> ##### Experimental Feature: Kit Guns
> The idea of a modularly customizable weapon is appealing to many, but its execution means the difference between creating a dinky peashooter whose efficacy is highly questionable to a minigun who rips through high level foes with too much ease. This feature is heavily experimental and should not be put into your games unless that is understood. I would appreciate any and all critique playtesting may bring.

## Class Features

### Gunsmithing
Also at 1st level, you can create and maintain your firearms. When you use your tinker's tools or smith's tools to create a firearm, an attachment, or firearm ammunition, the time required to make such items is halved.

### Helpful Gunplay
Also at 1st level, you have grown more accustomed to using your firearms in more creative ways. You can use your firearms to do one of the following as an action by firing a round, so long as the target is within 5 feet of you:

* **Blast Lock.** Automatically blast open a lock, harmlessly opening chests and doors.
* **Cauterize Wound.** Fire a bullet into the ground and press the red hot barrel of the firearm against an unconscious creature's most grievous wound, stabilizing them.

<!--
### Fighting Style 
At 1st level, you adopt a particular style of gunplay as your specialty. Choose one of the following options. You can't take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.

**Dart and Needle.** When you take the attack action to make a ranged attack with a firearm, you can make an attack with a simple melee weapon against a target within 5 feet of you as a part of that action.

**Duck and Dive.** While you are not wearing armor, your AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Charisma or Intelligence modifier.

**Love and Hate.** When you are engaging in two-weapon fighting and at least one weapon is a firearm or if you are wielding a firearm and a shield, you can reload a firearm you are currently wielding as a bonus action without having to have a hand free.

**Swerve and Shoot.** When a ranged attack misses you, you can use your reaction to make a ranged attack with a firearm against the attacking creature.

**Poke and Prod.** When you take half cover, you gain the benefits of being in three-quarters cover.

-->

### Fighting Style
At 1st level, you adopt a particular style of gunfighting as your specialty. Choose one of the following options. You can't take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.

**Breaking and Entering.** When you hit a creature with a ranged attack from a firearm with the scatter property, the target is pushed 5 feet away from you in a straight line.

**Duck and Dive.** When an attack misses you, you can use your reaction to expend a hit die, roll it, and regain a number of hit points equal to the number rolled + your Constitution modifier.

**Fire and Brimstone.** When you spend Bravado points to perform a Trick Shot or to use a feature that deals damage to a creature, the trick shot deal an additional amount of damage equal to twice the number of Bravado points expended.

**Love and Hate.** While engaging in two-weapon fighting with at least one firearm, or when wielding a firearm and a shield, you can reload any firearms you are holding as a bonus action without having a free hand.

### Trick Shots
At 2nd level, you can employ powerful techniques called trick shots to deceive and disable your foes.

**Trick Shots.** You learn two trick shots which are detailed under “Trick Shots” below. Each use of a tick shot requires you to make an attack with a firearm and must be declared before you roll to hit, unless otherwise stated. You may only use one trick shot per attack, unless otherwise stated.

You learn an additional trick shot of your choice at 7th, 10th, 15th, and 18th level. Each time you gain a level in this class, you can also replace one trick shot you know with a different one.

**Bravado.** You have a maximum number of Bravado points equal to your Charisma or Intelligence modifier (your choice; minimum 1). You regain 1 Bravado when you:

* Reduce a creature to 0 hit points with a firearm
* Score a critical hit on a creature with a firearm

You regain all expended Bravado points when you finish a long rest.

**Saving Throws.** Some trick shots require your target to make a saving throw. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

<div style='margin-top:20px'></div>
 
 <font face='scalysans' size='2'>
 
 <center> 
 
 **Trick Shot Save DC** </font> = <font face='scalysans' size='2'> 8 + your proficiency bonus + 
 
 </center>
 
 <div style='margin-top:-8px'></div>
 
 <center> your Charisma or Intelligence modifier (your choice) </center>
 
 <div style='margin-top:12px'></div>
 
 
 </font>

### Gunslinger Code
At 3rd level, you have taken on a Gunslinging Code; a series of guidelines that teach you how to better use your firearms and to whom you should point them at. Choose Constable, Desperado, Gambler, Gun Mage, Pirate, Ruin Seeker, or Spirit Medium.

### Ability Score Increase
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Using the optional feats rule, you can forgo taking this feature to take a feat of your choice instead.

\columnbreak

### Expertise
Also at 4th level, choose any two of your skill or tool proficiencies. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses either of the chosen proficiencies.

### Fan or Focus
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Alternatively, you can forgo this extra attack and spend one Bravado point to make one attack with advantage. If you have disadvantage, this advantage overwrites that disadvantage rather than canceling out.

### Quickdraw
At 6th level, your agility allows you to switch between firearms with ease. You can stow a firearm, then draw another firearm as a single object interaction on your turn. Additionally, you add your Charisma or Intelligence modifier (your choice) to your initiative.

### Brutal Knowhow
At 10th level, the weak points of enemies seem all the more obvious. You score a critical hit on a d20 roll of 19-20 on attack rolls using your firearms.

### Double-Tap
At 11th level, your lethality with your firearm has reached new heights. Once per round, when you reduce a creature to 0 hit points with a firearm, you can make an additional attack with a firearm.

### Additional Fighting Style
At 13th level, versatility has become a core component of your combat game plan. You learn one additional Fighting Style from either the Fighting Style feature from this class or from the Fighter class.

### Ace up the Sleeve
At 17th level, you are always prepared for a fight, no matter what. Choose one trick shot that you know which costs no more than 1 Bravado point and is not given to you by your Gunslinger Code. You can use that trick shot without expending Bravado.

### Hemorrhaging Critical
Upon reaching 18th level, whenever you score a critical hit on an attack with a firearm, the target additionally takes half of the damage from the attack at the start of its next turn.

### Rock and Rolling Thunder
Upon reaching 20th level, legends of your deeds have been cast far and wide; few know not the sound of your thunderous gunfire. When you roll initiative, you regain 2 Bravado.

<!--

\pagebreakNum

## Psyslinger

### Psionic Power

When you take up this Gunslinger Code at 3rd level, you harbor a wellspring of psionic energy within yourself. This energy is represented by your Psionic Energy dice, which are each a d6. You have a number of these dice equal to twice your proficiency bonus, and they fuel various psionic powers you have, which are detailed below.

Some of your powers expend the Psionic Energy die they use, as specified in a power’s description, and you can’t use a power if it requires you to use a die when your dice are all expended. You regain all your expended Psionic Energy dice when you finish a long rest. In addition, as a bonus action, you can regain one expended Psionic Energy die, but you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

When you reach certain levels in this class, the size of your Psionic Energy dice increases: at 5th level (d8), 11th level (d10), and 17th level (d12). The powers below use your Psionic Energy dice.

***Psychic Redirection.*** When you make an attack roll with a firearm, you can expend one Psionic Energy die, roll the die, and add the number rolled to the attack roll.

***Psy-Shift.*** When you are targeted by an attack, you can use your reaction to immediately move 10 feet and expend one Psionic Energy die, roll the die, and gain a bonus to your AC against that attack equal to the number rolled. If this bonus to your AC would cause the attack to miss, you gain a Bravado.

***Mind Trick.*** When you make a Charisma ability check, you can expend a Psionic Energy die, roll the die, and gain a bonus to the check equal to the number rolled.

### Psycho Shot
At 5th level, your psychic prowess can enhance your trick shots. When you use a trick shot that deals damage, you can expend a Psionic Energy die, roll the die, and deal an additional amount of psychic damage equal to the roll.

### 9th

### 14th

## Constable

Those who take up the Code of the Constable are generally mounted gunslingers who have forged a pact with a deity that grants them divine abilities.

##### Constable Features

| Gunslinger Level  | Features |
|:---:|:-----------:|
|  3rd  | Strong with Steed, Channel Divinity: Hallowed Barrel |
|  5th  | Defensive Duo, Voice of Authority |
|  9th  | Violent Absolution |
|  14th  | Heavenly Steed |
|  20th  | Divine Avatar |

### Strong with Steed
When you take up this Gunslinger Code at 3rd level, you have become in expert at taking care of mounts and other animals. You gain proficiency in Animal Handling.

Additionally, mounting a willing beast only takes 5 feet of your movement and your patron deity has granted you the power to conjure a steed. You learn the *find steed* spell and can cast it once without expending a spell slot before you must take a short or long rest. The steed's creature type is always celestial when you cast *find steed* using this feature. When you cast the *find steed* spell, you gain 1 Bravado point.

Finally, you gain proficiency with heavy armor.

### Channel Divinity: God Hammer
At 3rd level, you can call forth the wrath of your god. As an action, you create a 15-foot-diameter, 40-foot-high cylinder of radiant light centered on a point you can see within 60 feet of you. Each creature in the area must make a Wisdom saving throw or take 2d10 radiant and 2d10 thunder damage and be deafened until the end of their next turn. On a success, they take half as much damage and are not deafened. Additionally, the area at the bottom of the cylinder where the beam makes contact with the ground is covered in a 15-foot-diameter sphere of dust. The sphere spreads around corners, and its area is heavily obscured. It lasts for 1 minute or until a wind of moderate or greater speed (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses it.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

### Defensive Duo
At 5th level, you can defend your mount in combat. When you or your mount are targeted by an attack, you can choose to switch who is targeted between you and your mount. Additionally, when you and your mount are in an instantaneous hostile area of effect, you can choose to have either you or your mount be affected by the effect, leaving the other unaffected. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus and can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

\columnbreak

### Voice of Authority
Also at 5th level, you can use an action and expend a Bravado point to invoke the authority of your patron deity to do one of the following:

* **Obey.** You cast the *command* spell, the DC for which is your Trick Shot save DC.
* **Formation.** Up to a number of allies equal to your Intelligence or Charisma modifier can use their reaction to move up to their movement speed.

### Violent Absolution
At 9th level, you carry out the will of your god with fanatic zeal. When you use your Channel Divinity while mounted, the damage increases to 4d12 radiant and 4d12 thunder. Additionally, you can call forth two beams of light so long as their areas don't overlap.

### Heavenly Steed
At 14th level, your god of choice has bolstered the power of your conjured mount. You learn the *find greater steed* spell and can cast it once without expending a spell slot before you must take a long rest. The steed's creature type is always celestial when you cast *find greater steed* using this feature.

### Divine Avatar
At 20th level, your patron deity has granted you an aspect of themselves. As an action, you can transform into an avatar of your god and for 1 minute you gain the following properties:

* Angelic wings sprout from your back and you gain a flying speed 30 feet faster than your walking speed. If you are mounted, your steed instead grows these wings and gains a flying speed 30 feet faster than its walking speed for the duration of your transformation. If the steed already has a flying speed, its flying speed instead increases by 20 feet.
* Attacks with your firearms deal an additional 2d8 radiant damage.
* Your creature type becomes celestial and you have resistance to radiant and necrotic damage. If you are mounted, your steed also gains these resistances for the duration of your transformation.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

## Deadeye

##### Deadeye Features

| Gunslinger Level  | Features |
|:---:|:-----------:|
|  3rd  | Dangerous Duel (1d4) |
|  5th  | Dangerous Duel (1d6), Vandal's Shot, Quick Call-Out |
|  9th  | Dangerous Duel (1d8), Dust Pouch |
|  14th  | Dangerous Duel (1d10), Fan the Hammer |
|  20th  | Dangerous Duel (1d12), High Noon |

### Spot Vulnerabilities
When you take up this Gunslinger Code at 3rd level, you can take in the broader details of your enemy. As a bonus action, you can mark an enemy within 90 feet of you. While marked, you have a bonus to attack rolls with firearms against the market creature equal to your Intelligence or Charisma modifier and once on your turn when you hit the target, you can deal an additional 1d8 of your firearm's damage. The target remains marked for 1 minute or until you lose concentration (as if concentrating on a spell).

When you mark a creature, at the start of each subsequent turn you identify two of the following statistics about the creature of your choice:

* Armor Class
* All senses
* One damage resistance, if any
* One damage vulnerability, if any
* One damage immunity, if any
* One condition immunity, if any

You gain 1 Bravado point if you identify every available statistic about the creature.

You can only mark one creature at a time. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus and can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

### Overwatch
At 5th level, you can use a bonus action to go into overwatch as you scan the battlefield for opportunities against your enemies. While in overwatch, you can use your reaction to make a ranged weapon attack with your firearm against a creature that moves anywhere within your weapon's first range increment. If this attack hits, you can mark the creature with your Spot Vulnerabilities. If the target was already marked, you deal an additional 1d8 of your weapon's damage. In addition, you can expend 1 Bravado point to force the target to make a Strength saving throw against your Trick Shot Save DC. On a failure, the creature's speed drops to 0 and it stops moving.

### Exploit Vulnerabilities
At 9th level, you can exploit the weaknesses of your enemy to devastating effect. The additional damage you deal to a creature affected by your Spot Vulnerabilities feature becomes 2d8. Additionally, the target remains marked for up to 1 hour and has disadvantage on saving throws made against your Trick Shot Save DC.

### Quick Trigger
At 14th level, you're able to keep your eye on every combatant on the battlefield. You have two reactions that you can use each round. Additionally, you can expend a Bravado point to take an additional reaction if a triggering condition has been met.

### Deadeye's Glare
At 20th level, as an action you cause a creature marked by your Spot Vulnerabilities feature to tremble before your presence. When you do so, while the target is marked you have advantage on attacks made against them with your firearms, your additional damage dealt becomes 6d8, and the target must make a Wisdom saving throw against your Trick Shot Save DC or become frightened of you.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

## Marksman

##### Marksman Features

### Deadeye
When you take up this Gunslinger Code at 3rd level, you have learned to shoot with uncanny accuracy despite immense distances. When you hit a target with a ranged weapon attack with a firearm, future ranged weapon attacks you make on that target with a firearm score a critical hit on a d20 roll of 19-20. Once each turn when you hit the same target with a ranged weapon attack from a firearm before missing or hitting a different target, your critical hit range increases by 1 per successful shot. When you land a successful critical hit, this counter resets back to scoring a critical hit on a d20 roll of 19-20. If you have a different feature that increases your critical strike threshold, simply add that bonus to the bonuses supplied by this feature.

\pagebreakNum

## Desperado

Those who follow the Code of the Desperado generally fall into two camps: duelists and dangerous villains. They are excellent combatants whose skill with quick, agile gunmanship force foes onto their back foot through use of dirty tricks and decleration of duel.

##### Desperado Features

### Dangerous Duel
When you take up this Gunslinger Code at 3rd level, you've become an accomplished duelist who excels in single combat. You can use an action to challenge a creature you can see within 60 feet of you to a duel. They must make a Wisdom saving throw against your Trick Shot Save DC, or have disadvantage on attack rolls made against creatures other than you as you taunt them into a duel. When you hit the dueling creature with a weapon attack, you deal an additional 1d4 of your weapon's damage and you gain an additional Bravado point if you reduce the affected creature to 0 hit points (2 points total). The creature is compelled to duel you in this way for 1 minute and attempting to duel another creature while already dueling someone causes the ongoing duel to end. The affected creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success.

The additional damage increases as you gain levels in this class. The damage becomes 1d6 at 5th level, 1d8 at 9th, 1d10 at 14th and 1d12 at 20th.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. You regain all uses of this feature when you finish a long rest.

### Vandal's Shot
At 5th level, you learn a new trick shot. This trick shot does not count against your number of trick shots known. When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend 1 Bravado point to cause the attack to deal double damage to objects and structures. The shot has enough power to punch down a door, create a small crack in a stone wall, or destroy a small piece of cover. Alternatively, you can target an object that a creature is holding. On a hit, the target takes damage as normal and must make a Strength saving throw. On a failure, 1 nonmagical object they are carrying of your choice is destroyed. Such objects can include weapons or shields.

### Quick Call-Out
Also at 5th level, you can use your Dangerous Duel feature as a bonus action instead of an action.

### Draw!
At 9th level, you can draw and fire your firearms with extreme speed. When you roll initiative, you can immediately move up to your speed and make an attack with your firearm.

### Fan the Hammer
At 14th level, when you take the attack action on your turn to make an attack with your firearm against a creature affected by your Dangerous Duel feature, you can make an additional attack with your firearm against that creature as a part of the action.

### High Noon
At 20th level, you have become a paragon of the archetypal gunslinger. You score a critical hit against creatures affected by your Dangerous Duel feature on a d20 roll of 18-20 with attack rolls using your firearm.

## Gambler

Those who take up the Code of the Gambler have a seemingly supernatural luck that follows them. They can tug and nudge fate in themselves and others to grant personal advantage in combat or social situations.

##### Gambler Features

| Gunslinger Level  | Features |
|:---:|:-----------:|
|  3rd  | Wicked Bet, Gambler's Guile |

|  9th  | Roll them Stones |
|  14th  | Shield of Fate |
|  20th  | Royal Flush |

### Wicked Bet
When you take up this Gunslinger Code at 3rd level, you can store your luck for later. When you make an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, you can give yourself disadvantage and gain a Bravado point. If you would have advantage, this disadvantage overwrites that advantage rather than canceling out. If you use this feature for an attack, you can't gain advantage from Fan or Focus when you reach 5th level. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all uses after a long rest.

### Gambler's Guile
Also at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in two gaming sets of your choice. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make using either of these gaming sets.

### Exchange Luck
At 5th level, you can tug at fate. You can expend one Bravado point to give yourself advantage on an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw. You can't use this feature again until you have used your Wicked Bet feature at least once.

### Roll them Stones
At 9th level, you can siphon luck from other creatures. When a creature you can see within 30 feet of you makes an attack roll or ability check, you can use your reaction to give them disadvantage on the roll. When you do so, it counts as a use of Wicked Bet for the purpose of recharging Exchange Luck.

When you reach 14th level in this class, you can use this feature to impose disadvantage on another creature's saving throw.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

### Shield of Fate
At 14th level, your luck and the misfortune of others can grant you protection. When you give yourself advantage on an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw using Exchange Luck, you gain a number of temporary hit points equal to your gunslinger level.

\columnbreak

### Royal Flush
At 20th level, your unexplainable luck has surpassed mortal limitation. When you miss an attack or fail a saving throw, you can choose to critically hit or automatically succeed instead. If succeeding the saving throw allows you to take only half damage, you instead take no damage. Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

##### Spellcasting Ability
When you take this Gunslinger Code, you choose whether your spellcasting ability is Intelligence or Charisma for your wizard spells. You use your chosen ability score whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your chosen ability's modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a wizard spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

### Animated Firearm
Also at 3rd level, you can animate your firearms. As a bonus action, you can expend a spell slot to cause a firearm you are holding to hover within your control. Your firearm can travel up to a number of feet away from you equal to 10 * the level of the spell slot expended and floats for 1 minute, if you are ever more than its maximum distance apart, or until concentration ends (as if concentrating on a spell). You can see through the barrel of the animated gun, acting as an additional eye. If a creature tries to grab the gun, they must make a Strength check against a check made with your spellcasting ability. When the effect ends, the firearm falls if it is not held and you lose control over it. While the firearm is floating, you can fire it as normal with the attack originating from the firearm. As a part of an attack action or as a bonus action, you can move the firearm up to 60 feet within your area of control.

When you reach 14th level, you can animate two firearms simultaneously in this way, still only expending one spell slot.

### Mana Reserve
Finally at 3rd level, you can use a bonus action to expend up to 4 Bravado points to regain an expended spell slot of that level, assuming you have such a spell slot. Additionally, you can use a bonus action to expend a spell slot and regain a number of Bravado points equal to the spell slot's level. You can gain Bravado points in this way once and can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

### Spell Shot
At 5th level, you learn a new trick shot. This trick shot does not count against your number of trick shots known. When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend any number of Bravado points to cause arcane energy to spark upon your bullets. On a hit, you can choose to change the damage type to be one of the following: acid, cold, fire, lightning, or poison. The attack deals an additional number of d6s of that damage type equal to the number of Bravado points expended.

### Bullet Gate
At 9th level, you can infuse not just the elements but your physical essence into your rounds. When you hit a target with a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend 2 Bravado points to create two portals on the ground, one within 30 feet of the target and the other within 10 feet of your firearm, that are linked and behave like the *arcane gate* spell. These portals disappear at the beginning of your next turn.

### War Magic
At 14th level, when you use your action to cast a spell, you can make an attack with a firearm as a bonus action.

### Mythic Gunmetal
At 20th level, your mastery of magic has been perfectly combined with your gunplay. When you gain Bravado points, you can also regain all your expended spell slots. Once you use this feature, you can't do so again for 1d4+1 long rests.

<!--

### Arcane Aim
Also at 3rd level, you can use your magic to assist your aim. You learn the *true strike* cantrip, which doesn't count against the number of gun mage cantrips you know. For you, it has a range of 60 feet and you can cast it as a bonus action. Additionally, when you cast this spell you learn one vulnerability the target has (DM's choice), if any.

### Supernatural Panache
Finally at 3rd level, your affinity with the arcane bolsters your bravado. When you reduce a creature to 0 hit points with a spell or if you score a critical hit with a spell attack, you gain a Bravado point.

### Spell Shot
Also at 5th level, your bullets can transfer raw magical energy. When you hit a creature with an attack with your firearm, you can expend a spell slot and deal an additional number of d8s of force damage equal to the level of the spell expended.

### Inscribed Bullet
At 9th level When you cast a spell with a range of touch or that requires a spell attack roll, you can instead expend two Bravado points and make a ranged weapon attack with a firearm. On a hit, the firearm deals normal damage and you cast the spell on the target but the attack is treated as an attack with a firearm. If the spell would require an attack roll, use the result of the firearm attack.

You continue to sing the sea shanty for 1 minute, until you decide to stop singing on your turn (no action required), or if you lose concentration (as if concentrating on a spell). While singing, each friendly creature within 20 feet of you (including yourself) gains the sea shanty's benefits so long as they remain within range and can hear you. When you begin a sea shanty, you choose one of the following shanties to sing:
<br>

**Run the Galley, Boys!** A song about oaring water away together. Once per round, when a creature affected by this sea shanty sees an ally make an attack or cast a damaging spell they can use their reaction and make an attack against the same target if it is within range. <br>
**Warmer Tides Yonder** A song sung in hope of better water. Creatures affected by this sea shanty gain 1d8 temporary hit points at the start of each of their turns. <br>
**Scourge o' Flying Buckland** A song about defending a ship from the dread pirate Buckland. Creatures affected by this sea shanty can use a reaction when they are targeted by an attack to gain a bonus to their AC equal to your Intelligence or Charisma modifier until the start of their next turn.

### Come Join in Rhyme
At 5th level, you can call your allies to join your lead. As a bonus action, a friendly creature affected by your sea shanty can begin singing in kind. They sing for as long as you sing, until they are unaffected by the sea shanty, or until they decide to stop singing (no action required). You can have a number of allies equal to half your proficiency bonus (rounded up) singing with you at once. You can increase this maximum by expending 1 Bravado point per additional singer per round (no action required).

While an ally is singing with you, they gain a bonus to ability checks and damage rolls equal to your Intelligence or Charisma modifier, and friendly creatures within 20 feet of them gain the benefits of the sea shanty.

**Projected Voice.** The range for you sea shanties increases to 30 feet. Additionally, you can project your voice to be heard and understood up to 1 mile away.

### Bones in the Ocean

### Call of the Tides

**Flare.** You can fire a glowing round that sticks into a point on a solid surface within your firearm's range. Light emanates from the point for 1 minute and produces bright light for 60 feet and dim light for an additional 60 feet. When you reach 9th level, this light becomes daylight.

**Bolas.** You can make a ranged attack with your firearm against a creature within range. On a hit, the creature takes the normal damage and is grappled. A creature can use an action to remove the bolas, ending the grappled condition. Dealing 5 slashing damage to the Bolas (AC 10) also frees the creature and destroys the bolas.

**Grappling Hook.** You fire a rope dart from your gun that anchors into a solid surface within 60 feet of you. When you do, you can immediately fly to a point within 60 feet of the anchor, falling to 60 feet directly below the anchor at the end of your turn.

When you conduct your Occult Séance, you can extend the ritual to 1 hour, forgo gaining a Bravado point, and expend 3 Bravado points to place the soul into a weapon, armor piece, or trinket that you hold for the duration of the ritual.

### Sneaking Shadow
At 14th level, you can transform into a ghostly shadow, moving with supernatural speed and stealth.

### Greater Soul Binding
At 14th level, your Rite of Soul Binding has grown more powerful. The benefits a soul-infused item confers has changed to be that of the corresponding item below. Additionally, you can choose to target a willing creature's body with the Rite of Soul Binding which grants the corresponding property.

* **Ranged Weapon or Firearm.** Ranged attacks made with the weapon ignore cover.

* **Trinket.** As a bonus action, the wearer can consume the spiritual energies within the trinket, gaining a number of d10 temporary hit points and regaining a number of d10 hit points equal to 1/3 your gunslinger level (rounded up). When this property is used, the trinket becomes mundane and loses its soul-infused property.
* **Body.** A creature with a soul-infused body can use an action to meld with the spiritual energies kept within them and take on a ghostly form for 1 minute. For the duration, the creature has resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage from nonmagical attacks and can move through other creatures and objects as if they were difficult terrain as per your Step Within Shadows feature. At the end of this transformation, the creature gains a point of exhaustion and is no longer soul-infused.

### Deathwalker
At 20th level, the howls of the pale surround you. When you are reduced to 0 hit points, you can choose to have your soul emerge from your body and continue fighting. Your soul has your statistics and equipment and is under your control. Your soul has a number of hit points equal to half your hit point maximum. If your soul is reduced to 0 hit points or if you die, your soul is dispersed and disappears. Your soul has resistance to acid, fire, lightning, thunder; bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage and is immune to cold, necrotic, and poison damage. Your soul has the benefits of your Spirit Sight feature (no concentration required) and your Step Within Shadows feature even if you are in bright light.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you take a long rest.

### Deathwalker
At 20th level, the howls of the pale surround you.

The items then lose their soul-infused property. You gain 20 * the number of soul-infused items chosen temporary hit points, and for the duration you gain the benefits of your Spirit Sight feature (no concentration required), you gain the benefits of your Step Within Shadows feature even if you are in bright light, and attacks you make with a firearm or simple melee weapon deal an additional 2d12 necrotic damage, ignore cover, and can attack through full cover.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

# Scrapper

{maybe merge with ruin seeker}

### Scrapper Kit
At 3rd level, you have created a small kit of tools and materials that you can use to create various tools and weapons. The Scrapper Kit weighs 5 pounds and is easy to hide on your person. You decide its appearance and it contains screwdrivers, hammers, nails, among other tools and a variety of pieces of scrap you have collected over your travels.

At the end of a long rest, you can create two items using your Scrapper Kit. You can create two of the same item or they can be different. The items you can create are as follows:

**Bursting Ammunition.**

**Flash Flask.** You can use an action to throw this explosive at a point you can see within range where it bursts with blinding light and a deafening crack. Each creature within 20 feet of the flash flask must make a Wisdom saving throw against your Trick Shot save DC or be blinded and deafened until the end of your next turn.

**Hookline.** This spring-loaded grappling hook can be held wtih one hand. As an action, you can fire the hookline, anchoring it into a solid surface you can see within 60 feet of you. While holding onto the anchored hookline, you can use your movement to fly to a space within 60 feet of the anchor. At the end of your turn, the rope detaches and you fall if you are not on solid ground. Once the hookline has been fired, it is broken and can't be used again.

**Mist Shell.**

**Shatter Star.** You can use an action to throw this explosive at a point you can see within range where it explodes and is destroyed. Each creature within 15 feet of the shatter star must make a Dexterity saving throw against your Trick Shot save DC or take a number of d8s of fire damage equal to half your gunslinger level (rounded up).

### Refuse Reimagined
At 5th level, you have created a creation that offs great utility. You can choose one of the following creations:

**Scrap Steed.** A steed under your control that has the statistics of a beast with a CR of 2 or lower. You determine the steed's appearance. The steed's creature type is construct and you can ride the steed if it is your size or larger. The steed has a number of hit points equal to 5 * your level + your intelligence modifier. In combat, the steed shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn directly after yours. It obeys verbal commands you give it as a bonus action on your turn. If no command is given, it takes the Dodge action.

**Scrap Suit.** An exo-suit that enhances your physical ability and shields you. The suit is plate armor that you can wear without penalty even if you are not proficient in heavy armor. While wearing the suit, your Strength score increases by 2 as does the maximum for that score. Additionally, your movement speed increases by 5 feet while wearing the suit. The suit has a number of hit points equal to your gunslinger level + your Intelligence score. When you take damage from an attack, you can use a reaction and cause your suit to take the damage instead. If the suit drops to 0 hit points, it becomes normal plate armor that does not impose a penalty on you and all extra damage carries over to you.

Any creations with hit points regain 2d6 hit points if the *mending* spell is cast on it. Additionally, you can spend an hour repairing a creation, restoring all its hit points.

-->

<!--

The Scrapper Kit has 2 charges. At the end of a long rest, you can use your Scrapper Kit to create any number of items listed in the Scrapper Creations table, expending a number of charges equal to the combined Scrap value of the items created. You can recharge the Scrapper Kit by spending an hour actively search for replacement tools or scrap, so long as the location is suitable for such an endeavor (DM's discretion).

Descriptions for all the items can be found at the end of the class description.

The maximum number of charges the Scrapper Kit has increases as you gain levels in this class. It has 3 charges at 5th level, 4 charges at 9th level, 6 charges at 14th level, and 9 charges at 20th level.

## Trick Shots

##### Acute Shot
When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend one Bravado point to score a critical hit on a d20 roll of 19-20 for that attack. If your critical strike threshold has already been increased, you instead increase it by 1 more. For example, if you already score a critical hit on a 19-20, the range becomes 18-20 when you use this trick shot.

##### Blinding Shot

##### Deflecting Shot
As a reaction to seeing a creature within 15 feet of you (including possibly yourself) being targeted by an attack, you can expend two Bravado points and use your reaction to make an attack with your firearm against the attacking creature if they are within range. On a hit, they take the normal damage and must make a Dexterity saving throw against your Trick Shot Save DC or automatically miss the attack.

##### Disabling Shot
When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend a Bravado point and target a specific point on a creature's body, debilitating them. On a hit, the target takes the normal damage and must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, they have a penalty to attack rolls equal to your Intelligence or Charisma modifier (your choice) until the end of the target's next turn.

##### Disarming Shot
When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend a Bravado point and attempt to disarm your target. On a hit, you can choose whether the target takes the normal damage or no damage at all and the target must make a Strength saving throw. On a failure, the target drops 1 held object of your choice and that object is flung to a space within 20 feet of the target.

##### Piercing Shot
When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend a Bravado point to attempt to shoot through several targets. On a hit, the target takes the normal damage and you make an attack roll with disadvantage against every creature in a line directly behind the target within your first range increment.

\columnbreak

##### Ricocheting Shot
You can expend one Bravado point when you miss a ranged attack with a firearm. When you do so, you can make an additional attack with the same weapon against either your target or a creature within 15 feet of your target. This additional attack does not consume ammunition. You can use another trick shot with this additional attack, expending Bravado as normal.

##### Startling Shot
When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend one Bravado point to startle the target. Attacks against that creature have a bonus to hit equal to your Intelligence or Charisma modifier (your choice) until the end of the target's next turn.

##### Stumbling Shot

##### Sundering Shot
When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend one Bravado point to force the bullet through layers of your foes armor. You gain a bonus to hit equal to your Intelligence or Charisma modifier.

##### Warning Shot
When you make a ranged attack with your firearm, you can expend one Bravado point to attempt to scare the target. That creature must make a Wisdom saving throw or be frightened of you for 1 minute. An affected creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success.

##### Bayonet
A blade affixed to the barrel of a firearm. You can make a melee weapon attack with this simple weapon. It has the finesse property and deals 1d6 piercing damage.

\columnbreak

##### Muffle Sleeve
A sleek, fire resistant fabric sleeve that extends from the barrel of a firearm. Ranged attacks with this firearm are only audible for 100 feet.

A stone shield affixed to the body of a firearm. While you are not holding a shield, you gain a +1 bonus to your AC while you are holding a firearm affixed with this attachment.

##### Ringing Barrel
A metal barrel that amplifies the noise of a firearm it is affixed to. Ranged attacks with this firearm are audible for up to 5 miles. Additionally, when you make a ranged attack, each creature within 10 feet of you (including yourself) must make a Wisdom saving throw against your Trick Shot save DC or become deafened until the end of their next turn. Wearing earmuffs or other sound-muffling devices makes a creature immune to this effect.

##### Scoped Lens
Attacking at long range doesn't impose disadvantage on your ranged weapon attack rolls made with this firearm.

## Kit Guns <div style='font-size: 10px;'> Ver 0.1 </div>

Kit Guns are custom-made firearms. Creating a Kit Gun is an intensive process that pushes one's gunsmithing skills to the limit, but also grants the most creativity. Kit Guns commonly hold magic properties, have enhanced range and/or damage, and normally have an array of utility attachments such as scopes or small lights.

### Creating a Kit Gun
Once you reach 6th level as a Gunslinger, you will gain the Kit Gun feature. It is assumed that you have been collecting resources and drafting prototypes throughout your time as a gunslinger.

##### Anatomy of a Kit Gun
Kit Guns have 4 main parts that are required for it to function - the body, the loading mechanism, the barrel, and the grip - and all Kit Guns can be equipped with attachments.

#### Kit Gun Assembly
When creating a Kit Gun, it is imperative that you follow the following steps in the correct order:

##### Step 1: The Fantasy
A good blueprint is everything for Kit Gun creation, knowing whether you want to end up with a high-powered explosive sniper or a battleaxe-shotgun hybrid is a good first step. In this example, a human gunslinger named Avery who wants to make a two-handed rifle that shoots frost explosives. Avery has everything they need to move on to the next step.

##### Step 2: Body 
Now that you know what kind of firearm you want to make, now we actually begin making it. Begin by selecting the body of your kit gun. The body is arguably the most important part of this process as it determines the number of attachments your firearm can be equipped with, the damage dice you deal when you make a Ranged Weapon attack with your Kit Gun, and the different weapon properties it will have. Note the Range Modifier column on the Kit Gun Bodies table; this number determines the starting minimum and maximum range your Kit Gun will be able to comfortably fire in. Different stages of the Kit Gun assembly process will add or subtract from this value.

Avery knows they want a two-handed rifle, meaning that their options are either the Long or Cannon body. They decide that they want to be able to shoot more than one projectile per turn so they choose the Long body.

##### Step 3: Loading Mechanism
The loading mechanism modifies almost as much as the body, adding to the Kit Gun's range, determining the number of damage dice rolled per hit, and adding properties related to reloading. It is important to mention at this step that any multiplicative bonuses accrued along the assembly line are applied the moment the step is reached, not at the end after any later, additive bonuses are applied

Avery enjoys the range the Repeating loading mechanism offers them and selects that. Now they have a Kit Gun with the Long Body and the Repeating Loading mechanism.

\columnbreak

##### Step 4: Barrel
Now is where we find out what, exactly, it is that you are shooting. The barrel of the Kit Gun continues to modify the weapon's range and also determines the price of the weapon's ammunition and whether it has the Scatter property or not.

Avery chooses the Artillery barrel and chooses cold damage. They now have what is effectively a grenade launcher, good for pelting targets with deadly snowballs from a little under 300 feet away. Excellent.

##### Step 5: The Grip
This stage is extremely simple; does your character have high Strength? If not, it is likely best for you to choose the Agile grip. If you want to strong-arm enemies into submission, however, then perhaps your Strength can support the Sturdy grip.

Avery is a bit waifish and would likely not fair well with the Sturdy grip, so they choose Agile. And it is complete! Able to be fit with 2 attachments, dealing 2d10 cold damage to their targets and an additional 2d10 to surrounding enemies from hundreds of feet away, Avery has successfully created their first Kit Gun! Now all there is to do is give it a terrifying name and raise hell upon their enemies.

### Body
The body of a Kit Gun forms the main structure of the firearm and determines what kind of and how many attachments can be put onto the firearm.

##### Kit Gun Bodies

| Body Type | Weight Modifier | Range Modifier | Number of Attachments | Damage Die | Properties |
|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|
| Light | 1 lb. | (+10/+30) | 1 | d8 | light, loud |
| Medium | 3 lb. | (+30/+90) | 2 | d10 | loud |
| Heavy | 6 lb.  | (+30/+120) | 2 | d12 | heavy, loud |
| Long | 4 lb. | (+60/+240) | 2 | d10 | two-handed, loud |
| Cannon | 9 lb. | (+100/+300) | 3 | d12 | two-handed, heavy, loud, special |
| Melee Weapon | - | (+10/+20) | 1 | d10 | special, loud |

</div>

#### Melee Weapon Body
Choose a melee weapon that does not have the light or special properties. Your Kit Gun functions as both your chosen melee weapon and a firearm. When you make an attack with your Kit Gun, you can choose whether you are shooting it, using its firearm statistics, or using it as a melee weapon. The Kit Gun takes on any properties your chosen melee weapon has.

#### Cannon Body
A Kit Gun with the Cannon body has a maximum reload score of 1.

# Magic Items

##### Barrel of Sorcery
*Firearm (any), very rare (requires attunement)*

You have a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.

The firearm has 20 charges and recharges 3d6 charges daily at dawn. If you expend the last charge, the firearm maintains its +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls, but loses all other magical properties.

The beam is a 10 ft. wide 60 ft. long line that deals an amount of force damage equal to 8 * the number of charges expended. A creature reduced to 0 hit points from this damage is obliterated, not even ash remains. When you use this feature, roll 1d20. On a 1 to 10, you are teleported to a random plain of existence. On an 11 to 20, you are instead pushed 20 feet away from the line. Regardless, the Barrel of Sorcery explodes and is destroyed and if you are holding the firearm you take an amount of force damage equal to 16 * the number of charges expended.

##### The Ruiner's Rifle
*Firearm (sharp rifle), rare (requires attunement)*

You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. This weapon has 4 charges which recharge daily at dawn. By expending charges, you can do the following:

**Rotting Round.** When you hit a creature with a ranged attack with this firearm, you can expend a charge to deal an additional 3d8 necrotic damage.

**Raising Round.** When you reduce a humanoid to 0 hit points with a ranged attack with this firearm, you can expend a charge to raise the creature as an undead thrall as if the *animate dead* spell had been cast on them. You can expend a charge as an action to maintain their animation.

##### Ol' Betsy
*Firearm (blunderbuss), legendary (requires attunement)*

Once wielded by Cast Coalsmoke, this blunderbuss is ornately made, featuring a golden dragon's head at the end of its barrel through which superheated rounds are sent down range. Additionally, a long, serrated blade has been affixed to the edge of this weapon.

You gain a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.

**Dragon's Maw.** This blunderbuss deals 3d8 fire damage instead of its normal piercing damage. Additionally, it lacks the reload property as magical flame is automatically conjured and loaded into its chamber instead of bullets. Magical bullets can still be manually loaded in as if it were a normal blunderbuss, however.

**Executioner's Blade.** You can make a melee attack with this weapon, dealing 1d10 slashing damage and 2d8 fire damage on a hit. If you score a critical hit with this attack, you deal an additional 6d10 slashing damage.

**Draconic Insight.** You can speak, read, and write Draconic. Additionally, you have advantage on Intelligence checks to recall information about dragons and Charisma checks when interacting with dragons.

**Ol' Betsy's Promise.** While attuned to Ol' Betsy, you can use an action to cause gold draconic wings to sprout from your back, giving you a flying speed equal to your walking speed.

**Breath Weapon.** As an action, you can cause Ol' Betsy to emit one of two 90-foot cone effects:

* **Fire Breath.** Each creature in the cone must make a DC 19 saving throw or take 12d8 fire damage, half as much on a success.
* **Weakening Breath.** Each creature caught in the cone must make a DC 19 Strength saving throw or have disadvantage on Strength-based attack rolls, Strength checks, and Strength saving throws for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

**Sentience.** Ol' Betsy, known as Betsithaax, the Golden Shepherd, is a lawful good ancient gold dragon that has been permanently polymorphed into this firearm. Ol' Betsy has an Intelligence of 18, a Wisdom of 17, and a Charisma of 28. It has hearing and darkvision out to a range of 120 feet.

The weapon communicates telepathically with its wielder and can speak, read, and understand Common, Draconic, Dwarvish, Elvish, and Infernal.

**Personality.** Betsithaax was once a guardian of an ancient kingdom. Legends tell of her having assisted the monarchs of old rise to their elevated status, granting her the moniker the Golden Shepherd. However, a rival regent to one of her client kingdoms saw fit to rid their kingdom of the golden scourge and magically turned her into a harmless ingot of gold. This ingot, centuries later, was found by accomplished blacksmith and gunslinger, Cast Coalsmoke who forged it into his magnum opus: Ol' Betsy.

Now that Betsithaax is but a tool of man, she wishes to rid herself of such a condition and bring draconic hellfire upon the progeny of the regent that made her such.

Despite such violent ambition, Betsithaax generally has the highest hopes for humanoid kind, being a patron of their endeavors for so long has caused her to grow somewhat fond of certain mortals.

## Gun Spinner

### Gun Spinning
When you take up this Gunslinger Code at 3rd level, you learn the performative art of gun spinning. While wielding a firearm that lacks the heavy property, as a bonus action you can begin gun spinning and can continue to do so for 1 minute or until concentration ends (as if concentrating on a spell). While you are gun spinning, when you take the attack action you can make an additional attack with your firearm as a part of that action. Additionally, when you begin gun spinning you gain a Bravado point.

You can use this feature twice and can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

Additionally, you gain proficiency in the Performance skill and your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make using Performance.

### Gun Spinning Style
At 5th level, you can enhance your gun spinning by employing a specific gun spinning style. When you begin gun spinning, you can choose one of the following styles, gaining certain benefits for the duration of the performance:

* **Dancing Style.** While gun spinning, your jump height and distance are doubled and your movement speed increase by 10 feet. Additionally, you can use a bonus action to take the Disengage action.
* **Dervish Style.** While gun spinning, you can make an additional attack with your firearm as a bonus action.
* **Dodging Style.** While gun spinning, your gain a +2 bonus to your AC and you have advantage on Dexterity saving throws.

You can expend a Bravado point as a bonus action while gun spinning to switch the which style you are employing.

### Spectacular Display
At 9th level, your gun spinning instills a mix of awe, fear, and confusion into your opponents. While gun spinning, you can end the performance early in a flurry of bullets as an action. When you do so, you can make a number of ranged attacks with a firearm equal to the sum of the reload scores of firearms you are holding. Once when you use this feature, each creature hit by an attack must make a Wisdom saving throw against your Trick Shot save DC. On a failure, the target has disadvantage on attack rolls until the end of its next turn.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

### 14th

### Master's Style
At 20th level, your gun spinning becomes less of a graceful dance and more of a series of blurred movements that draw death in the air. When you start gun spinning, you can choose to gain the benefits of all the gun spinning styles simultaneously.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

Was 5th edition D&D ever really meant for a proper gunslinger? Probably not, but God damn if there isn't something so fascinating and fantastically appealing about being a rough-and-tumble desperado equipped with nothing but his wit and pistol. This niche is one that has been filled in places by some classes, like artificer or rogue, but has been tackled so head-on only in homebrewed content. I figured that I'd try to give it a spin.

This document is the culmination of dozens of hours of work which consisted of conceptualizing, play-testing, balancing, and seeking assistance from outside sources like friends on discord. I hope that this is something you can enjoy at your own table. Thank you for playing!
