Rats in a Barrel Like shooting...
The shotgun almost shudders with anticipation at the thought of spilling rodent blood.
This Artifact can be used as a shotgun. It is roughly the same size as a shotgun and just as difficult to conceal. Unless the enemy you are fighting is a rodent or rodent-associated, to which this weapon deal an additional +1 damage, this Artifact behaves as its mundane counterpart.
Attack by rolling Dexterity + Firearms, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal 5 Weapon Damage. The target's Armor is fully effective against this damage.
You also gain the following effects:
- Infinite Ammo: This weapon never runs out of its standard ammunition.
- Keyhole: Any bullet that kills your target tumbles through their body and may strike a target in a 90 degree angle behind them. Any damage beyond that needed for the kill is applied to the secondary target.
- Excess keyhole damage does not reapply the weapon's damage bonus and is affected by Armor as normal. The secondary target may React to the tumbled bullet if they have a Gift which lets them do so.
- Reminder: additional Weapon Damage granted by this Effect does not stack with any other bonus to Weapon Damage. Instead the largest bonus is used.
- Rifles are +1 Difficulty to use in melee range. Sniper Rifles are +3 Difficulty to use without a tripod or in melee range. Setting up a tripod takes an Action.

Silver Bullet
I've hit it right on the mark, haven't I?
These days, being smart is hardly enough to solve mysteries. Sometimes you have to shoot them in the face. Sometimes you want to shoot them in the face, because forgiveness is a learned weakness.
Upon you, we bestow knowledge accrued from three minds past. Never thought you'd become an ammunitions expert, did you?
Well?
You have everything you need.
What are you waiting for?
On shooting:
Shooting a gun is very much like deductive reasoning. At least, that's how Koriol imagines it'd be - he's barely held a gun his entire life, and suddenly he finds that he needs it more than ever. Ready, aim, shoot - you'd have to be pretty accurate in both cases.
On schematics:
As the 4th Knobbler, Koriol has gained access to schematics that allow him to forge certain weapons. While the Knoblobber is far from a normal gun, all he really needs to do is change up the size and shape of the barrel and cylinder. The mechanics can't be that different. Now, you have a revolver... hey, who else used revolvers, again? No, not that guy, the other one...
This Artifact can be used as a crossbow. It is roughly the same size as a crossbow and just as difficult to conceal.
Attack by rolling Dexterity + Firearms, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +2 Weapon Damage. Attacks do not require a successful called shot to do damage.
Anyone who touches this Artifact will notice it warping their mind and may drop it. If they choose to hold or use it, they immediately receive the following Trauma: Doorknob Compulsion: Anytime that you come across a doorknob or doorknob-shaped object, you must succeed a Self-Control roll to resist the urge to steal it. If you fail, you may Exert your Mind to overcome the urge. If they lose possession of this Artifact, the Trauma heals over the course of the next day.
You also gain the following effects:
- Pin Down: If your attack hits a target near a wall or a floor, the projectile pierces through them, pinning them to the wall or floor. Unpinning oneself quickly will increase the relevant Injury’s Severity by 1.
- Virtuoso's Vessel: When using this Device for its primary purpose, you always roll a minimum of 8 dice. Excludes Effect activation rolls.
- Reminder: additional Weapon Damage granted by this Effect does not stack with any other bonus to Weapon Damage. Instead the largest bonus is used.
Project Hammerspace Expansion R
"The best way to keep your firearms on you is to keep them hidden."
Another use for Project Hammerspace, the abilities of this object have been expanded to allow it to take on the form of a powerful laser rifle, allowing for for the wielder to become far deadlier in combat than ever before.

Oversized and Overpowered
"If that don't work, get more gun."
Less so a firearm and more so a light artillery piece. Its muzzle blast is a dazzlingly bright explosion, lobbing a sizable chunk of metal at modest velocity. This brick of a hand cannon is twice as big as a contemporary handgun, and just as loud. Hearing protection and a suppressor recommended!
This gun is, quite literally, out of this world, whether that means of alien, time-travel, or inter-dimensional means. The bottomless magazine mechanism listed is arcane in nature, and the firearm feeds hulking wildcat .45 caliber cartridges. The gun is sealed (minus the ejection port and barrel) and self-cleaning.
A journal entry about the gun, written by an unknown blacksmith, and scrawled in an unknown language, notes the following improvements to the base design:
"Hellfire" portal technology for self-reloading magazine and self-cleaning mechanism. Ketsteel alloy construction for reduced weight at virtually no cost to durability. Prototype self-guided munitions (mimicking Myrrh Sov's harmonic stone core earthromancy-guiding munitions). An ergonomic grip (to replace the original design's horrid one). Cleaner sight picture. Threaded barrel to accept barrel accessories (the gods know it needs one). Expanded trigger guard to allow use of gloves.

The Last Word
The gun came in a plain box. No ceremony. No key. Just a folded letter, yellowed at the edges, from a man Myles had barely known but never stopped resembling.
“Every man’s got one truth he can’t outrun. This one’s yours now.”
At first touch, it breathed. Just enough to make him freeze. Warm to the grip, heartbeat-soft under his thumb. Something alive. Something waiting. Something judging.
The whispers began soon after. Not voices—more like convictions, raw and righteous. It made the world sharper. Colder. Clearer. Every criminal face lit up in red. Every excuse sounded like a lie.
He knows what it does. He knows what it is. He’s felt it stretch his thoughts like wire pulled taut. He’s watched his hand hover too long over the trigger. He knows it’s warping him.
But he can’t let it die.
He’s never left it behind. Not once. Not for more than a handful of hours. Because if it’s gone too long, it wilts. The warmth fades. The breath slows. And when that happened once—just once—he held it all night in both hands like a man waiting at someone’s deathbed. By morning, it had come back.
And he told himself he wouldn’t let it happen again.
Because letting it die would mean admitting it mattered. That he’s bonded to it. That it’s not just a weapon—it’s a witness. One he keeps alive.
Every time he fires it, the world gets quieter. Cleaner. The bang, if he wants it, is thunder. But when he doesn’t—it’s nothing. And when a shot is fatal, the silence hangs like a velvet curtain over the corpse.
They never scream. Never beg. The gun doesn’t let them.
And Myles? He just holsters it again and keeps walking.
He doesn’t call it a curse anymore. He doesn’t call it anything.
But it always has the last word.
