Deepshot
Weapon (any firearm), uncommon
Accompanied by a musty aroma, this magical, dark
iron firearm produces a multitude of dusky mushrooms each day. Releasing a toxic torrent from each
crop of toadstools, the spore-filled salvo produces
effects reminiscent of the debilitating deep dragons of
The Low.
Toxic Shot. As an action while holding this firearm,
you can release a burst of toxic spores in a 30-foot
cone. Each creature in the area must make a DC 13
Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 5d6 poison damage and is poisoned for 1
minute. On a successful save, a creature takes half as
much damage and isn’t poisoned. A poisoned creature
can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its
turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. Once
this property of the firearm has been used, it can’t be
used again until the next dawn.
Rare variant. Increase the save DC to 15 and the
damage to 7d6. The item has the Sludge Shot property:
Sludge Shot. As an action while holding this
firearm, you can release thick, sticky sludge in
a 30-foot cone. Each creature in the area must
succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be
restrained by the sludge. A creature can use its
action to make a DC 15 Strength check, freeing
itself or another creature within 5 f eet of it on a
success. Once this property of the firearm has been
used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.
Very Rare variant. Increase the save and check
DCs of the item’s properties to 16, and the damage of
Toxic Shot to 8d6. The item has the Sludge Shot and
Torpor Shot properties:
Torpor Shot. As an action while holding this firearm, you can release a cloud of addling spores in a
30-foot cone. Each creature in the area must succeed on a DC 16 Wisdom saving throw or come
under the effect of the slow spell for 1 minute
(no concentration required). An affected creature
can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of
its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Once this property of the firearm has been used, it
can’t be used again until the next dawn.
