The Gunslinger

The Gunslinger, as the name would imply, primarily employs firearms as their weapon of choice. While a gun may be just as powerful in the hands of a novice as it is in the hands of a specialist, this only allows Gunslingers to further develop their speed, precision, and technique.

Flavor text, flavor text.

The gunslinger, unlike other fighters, fights at a long range. A lot of the power and individuality of a gunslinger comes from their subclass. In addition, you get access to a good variety of effects through deeds, and are most likely to be the one out of the group who spots when something is amiss. And, of course, you'll be stronger than most at long ranges.

Specialty

Beginning at 1st level, you choose your specialization in firearms. You can choose from Duelist, Soldier, Sniper, Crackshot, Spellslinger, Arsenal, or Loudmouth.

Firing Style

Also at 1st level, you gain one of the following fighting styles of your choice. (These fighting styles are also available to the Fighter class, and can be gained using the Fighting Initiate feature.)

Akimbo. You gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls with weapons that have both the light and tactless properties. Additionally, when engaging in two-weapon fighting with tactless weapons, you do not make your offhand attack with disadvantage. Alternatively, you can make use your bonus action to make two attacks with disadvantage using your offhand weapon, if the attack would not normally have disadvantage.

Precision. You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls with firearms which have the Tactless property.

Skullcracker. When exceeding a target's AC by 5 or more or landing a critical hit with a firearm attack, you can add a d6 to the damage roll of the attack.

Defense. You gain a +1 bonus to AC and saving throws.

Close-quarters shooter. Your ranged attacks ignore half cover and three-quarters cover and have a +1 bonus to attack rolls against targets within 30 feet of you. Additionally, when making a ranged attack while you are within 5 feet of a hostile creature, you do not have disadvantage on the attack roll, and gain a +1 bonus to the damage roll. This works with weapons which have the tactless property.

Quick Draw

Starting at 2nd level, you remain high-strung, always envisioning your hand on your gun. You add your proficiency bonus to initiative rolls, and may draw and stow up to two firearms as part of rolling initiative. Starting at 7th level, you can also make a single attack with a firearm as part of rolling initiative.

Deeds

Also at 2nd level, you become bold enough to engage in risky maneuvers which seem to pan out for you. You learn two Deeds of your choice, and gain a number of Risk dice with which to use them. Additionally, you must choose Charisma, Wisdom, or Intelligence as your Risk modifier. This ability determines the saving throw and attack bonus of certain deeds and features in this class. You learn more deeds as you gain levels in this class, as shown in the deeds known column on the Gunslinger table. Each time you level up, you can replace one deed you know with another deed which you qualify for.

Shots

You can only apply one of these deeds per attack you make with a firearm.

Bullet-Catch

Starting at 9th level, you can use your reaction to deflect or catch a projectile when you are hit by a ranged weapon attack. When you do so, the damage you take from the attack is reduced by 1d10 + your Strength or Dexterity modifier + your Proficiency bonus.

Deadeye

Starting at 9th level, when making an attack roll with advantage from your Lineup feature, you can reroll one of the d20s once.

Starting at 3rd level, when you exceed a target's AC by 10 or more with an attack roll using a ranged weapon with the tactless property, the attack is treated at a critical hit.

Starting at 17th level, you can attack 3 times, instead of 2, when you take the attack action on your turn.

Magic Bullet

When you adopt this specialty at 1st level, when dealing damage with a firearm, you can choose to deal force damage, instead of the weapon's normal damage type. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency bonus, regaining all uses at the end of a long rest.

Spellcasting

Starting at 3rd level, you gain the ability to conjure minor effects. Your Risk modifier is your spellcasting modifier for these spells, as it comes from your unique ability.

Spell Slots

The Spellslinger Spellcasting table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your conduit spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

For example, if you know the 1st-level spell Shield and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast Shield using either slot.

Empower

Starting at 6th level, when using your Magic Bullet feature, the attack deals an additional 1d4 force damage. Additionally, your Firing Style applies to spells which require attack rolls.

Additionally at 6th level, when you use your action to cast a spell or cantrip, you can make a single weapon attack as a bonus action.

Energy Burst

Starting at 9th level, you can always cast cantrips with a casting time of one action as a bonus action. You cannot add any modifiers to the damage of cantrips cast in this way, or make a weapon attack as part of a cantrip cast in this way.

Additionally, you can always make a single ranged weapon attack as a bonus action.

Improved War Magic

Starting at 11th level, once per turn, you can replace one of your attacks with the casting of a spell or a cantrip. The spell must have a casting time of one action or one bonus action. You cannot make a weapon attack as part of a cantrip cast in this way.

Imbued Shot

Starting at 14th level, you can infuse your bullets with your magic. By expending a spell slot as part of a weapon attack, you can deal 1d10 additional force damage per level of the spell slot spent.

Magi

Starting at 17th level, you are adept enough in magic to keep a steady flow throughout the day. As a bonus action, you can gain spell slots whose total level equals your Proficiency bonus. You cannot gain a spell slot of a higher level than 4th. After using this feature, you must finish a long rest before you can use it again.

Voltage

When you adopt this archetype at 1st level, you can replace any Fire or Piercing damage you deal with firearms with Lightning damage.

Bullet Hell

Starting at 3rd level, once per turn when you make a firearm attack with disadvantage using the Automatic property or the Akimbo fighting style, you can instead make that attack without disadvantage (you do not replace the attack again for an automatic weapon, you simply make an exception and make the attack without disadvantage). You can do this twice per turn starting at 9th level, thrice per turn at level 13, and 4 times per turn starting at level 18.

Electromancy

Starting at 6th level, you gain a set of extra abilities related to the control of electricity.

Techniques. You learn one of four Storm Gunner Techniques listed on the next page. You learn another technique at levels 8, 12, and 16, and can replace any technique you know with another technique every time you gain a level in this class.

Electromancy Points. These abilities are fuelled by Electromancy points, which you have a number of equal to your Risk modifier + 1/4th of your Gunslinger level, rounded down (minimum 3 electromancy points). You regain all Electromancy points at the end of a long rest.

Attract/Disperse. As a reaction to an ally within 90 feet taking Lightning damage, you can take the full amount of lightning damage in their place. You can additionally expend 2 Electromancy points as part of the reaction to halve the damage against you, taking no damage if you have resistance to lightning damage. Regardless, after making this reaction, the next weapon attack you make before the end of your next turn will deal 1d12 additional Lightning damage on a successful hit.

Charge. You can expend Electromancy points up to your Proficiency bonus as part of a weapon attack to cause that attack to deal 1d8 additional Lightning damage per point spent, in addition to the normal damage of the attack. You must do this before you make the attack roll.

Raincloud

You can cause storm clouds to brew at a point of your choosing within 60 feet as a bonus action by expending one Electromancy point. The cloud is a 15 foot cube, has 15 HP, 14 AC, uses your saving throws, hovers up to 60 feet off the ground, uses your saving throws, and is immune to bludgeoning, slashing, piercing, psychic, and necrotic damage, and lasts for one minute. As part of the bonus action used to create the cloud, then a bonus action on each subsequent turn, you can expend one Electromancy point to command the cloud, allowing it to move up to 25 feet and then take one of the following actions:

Dodge Rain! All creatures that are within 10 feet (and are underneath) the raincloud must make a Dexterity saving throw against your Risk DC or take Piercing damage equal to one roll of your Risk die, taking half as much on a successful save, as bullets pour out of the cloud. You can expend one Risk die as part of this action to add it to the damage.

Descend. The cloud darkens and congeals as it lowers to the ground, heavily concealing the area it falls on similarly to the fog of a fog cloud spell (although cannot be dispersed by strong wind). You can cause it to rise again any time you move the cloud, ending these properties.

Jolt. A jolt of electricity leaps from the cloud to a target within 60 feet. Use your Risk attack bonus for the attack, dealing Lightning damage equal to one roll of your Risk die + your Risk modifier on a hit. You can expend one Risk die as part of this action to add it to the damage.

Zap

You gain access to a limited array of spells, using your Risk modifier as your spellcasting ability modifier. You must expend one Electromancy point per slot level you cast the spell at, but can cast any spell at a level up to your Proficiency bonus (cantrips do not cost any electromancy points). You must be able to cast a spell at its lowest level to be able to cast it at all.

Additionally, you can expend two electromancy points as a bonus action to make your offhand attack with two-weapon fighting on any turn you do not take the attack action.

Extreme Speed. Upon rolling initiative, or as a bonus action, you can expend one Electromancy point to apply one of the following effects to yourself, which each last for 1 minute, or until you are incapacitated or knocked unconscious:

• You gain 15 feet of movement speed
• You gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls with firearms
• You can take the Dash and Disengage actions simultaneously as a bonus action
• You gain a +2 bonus to your AC
• You gain advantage on Dexterity saving throws

You can apply additional benefits on subsequent turns, but only one of each, and only one benefit can be granted per bonus action, expending electromancy points as normal.

Attract/Repulse

When you adopt this archetype at 1st level, you can try to keep your foes unsure with your words. In place of an attack, you can force a target within 90 feet to make a Constitution saving throw against your Risk DC. On a failed save, the target's next attack roll before the end of your next turn has disadvantage, and the next attack against them before the end of your next turn has advantage.

Manipulations

Starting at 3rd level, you begin to perceive gravitational waves, and become attuned to the ways in which you can subtly distort and amplify them. You gain access to Gravitational Manipulations.

Wave Points. Your ability to control gravity is represented by a well of Wave Points, which you have 5 of, and gain more as you gain levels in this class, as shown in the Graviturge table. You regain all spent wave points at the end of a long rest.

Manipulations Known. You know one Gravitational Manipulation, choosing from the Manipulations on the next page. You learn additional manipulations as you level up in this class, as shown on the Graviturge table. Additionally, each time you level up, you can replace one manipulation you know with a new one.

Gravitational Manipulations. Manipulations additionally have optional effects listed under them, accompanied by the tag (x points), where X is the amount of points needed to expend to use that effect. Wave points are spent on these effects individually, and only to a maximum of your Wave limit can be spent to boost your manipulations after the initial cost to perform the manipulation. For example, if you are a 3rd level Gravity\urge gunslinger, you can spend 1 wave point to use the Railgun manipulation, then spend 2 more points on the Density effect to give your attack a +1 bonus to the attack roll and a +5 bonus to the damage roll.

Meteor Bullet

Starting at 6th level, you gain a single extra deed, which does not count against your deeds known:

Meteor Bullets. At the beginning of your turn (no action required), you can expend one Risk die to cause your bullets to be much more affected by gravity, allowing you to shoot upwards and have your projectiles crash back to earth with deadly speed. Your ranged weapon attacks ignore half and three-quarters cover for the rest of this turn, and may ignore full cover if the target is not covered from above.

Subtle Pull

Also at 6th level, you regain Wave points equal to your Risk modifier on a short rest.

Gravitational Flow

Starting at 9th level, when using your action to use a Gravitational Manipulation, you can make a single weapon attack as a bonus action.

Revolution

In place of a ranged weapon attack, you can expend one Wave point to force a creature within your weapon's range to make a Dexterity saving throw against your Risk DC. On a failed save, they take the full damage of the weapon attack. Every creature of your choosing who is exactly the same distance from you as the target must then make the same saving throw.

Velocity (1+ points) The save DC increases by 3 for each point spent.

Density (1+ points) The damage increases by 1d6 Piercing for each point spent.

Pull (2 points) The projectile is drawn back to you instead of falling to the ground. Every creature of your choice who is closer to you than the target must also make the save, but does so with advantage.

Table Flip

As a bonus action, you can pull up a section of ground (if possible) by expending two Wave points. You choose a 5-foot space adjacent to you, or the space you're standing in. An object is created in that space, with 10 health and 15 AC, which allows other creatures to occupy its space and grants half cover to any creatures occupying its space.

Length (1+ points) You can create one additional construct, or out of range if it is adjacent to an effected space. If you apply any additional effects for this manipulation, you can choose to have them effect or not effect each individual construct.

Hardness (1+ points) The construct gains 5 health and 1 AC per point spent.

Height (2 points) The construct grants 3/4 cover, instead of half cover.

Fort (3 points) The construct grants full cover. You must momentarily step out of the cover to make attacks, however.

Coefficient

As an action, you can change the rate at which gravity effects a creature. You can choose a creature within 60 feet, who can choose to make a Constitution saving throw against your Risk DC to resist the effects. You must concentrate on this manipulation as if concentrating on a spell.

Reduce (2 points) The target has advantage on dexterity-based ability checks, and saving throws, but has disadvantage on strength-based ones. Additionally, their jump distance is tripled.

Increase (2 points) The target has advantage on strength-based ability checks, and saving throws, but has disadvantage on dexterity-based ones. Additionally, they gain a +1 bonus to AC.

Push Negative (3 points) The creature is subject to the effects of the Levitate spell, with the same duration and concentration as normal. You have advantage on ranged weapon attack rolls while the target is effected in this way.

Push Multiplicative (3 points) The creature must make a Strength saving throw at the beginning of each of their turns, being rendered prone on a failed save.

Natural (2 points) This manipulation no longer requires concentration.

Weaponize (1 point) The target's advantage and disadvantage for strength and dexterity checks caused by this manipulation also gives them advantage and disadvantage to attack rolls using the corresponding scores.

Wormhole

As a bonus action, you can expend two Wave points to create a connection between two points. You create two portals at points you can see within 30 feet, up to 15 feet apart. They have a few properties:

• As expected, anything passing through one portal comes out the other portal in equal measure (including light, allowing visuals to be clear from one portal to the other).
• The portals are 1 foot in diameter, and are size category tiny. They do not occupy their space, but only creatures of equal or smaller size can pass through freely.
• Creatures caught mid-way inside the portal while it is created or dismissed are simply deposited on the side where most of their body is, no harm caused.
• The portals last for one minute, until a new pair of portals are created, or until dismissed. You can dismiss these portals at any time, no action required.
• These portals additionally slightly multiply the velocity of anything traveling through them. When you make a ranged weapon attack against the portal, the attack will stay caught in a loop between the portals until they are dismissed, at which point the attack is made from the position of one of the portals. The 'stored' attack gains an additional 1d8 Piercing damage at the end of each of your turns that the attack remains in the portal.

Distance (1+ points) The range in which you can create the portals increases by 10 feet, and the portals can be an additional 10 feet away from eachother for each point spent.

Size (1+ points) The portal's size category increases to small, and increases again for each point spent.

Crisp Image (4+ points) Any creature within the portal when it is created or dismissed must make a Constitution saving throw against your Risk DC or take 2d10 Force damage and will not be moved, or take half as much on a success. Upon taking this damage, the creature cannot take it again until the end of their next turn. The damage increases by 1d10 for each additional point spent.

Tandem (3 points) If another portal is already made or is made while these portals are active, the two pairs can co-exist.

Railgun

Once per turn when making a weapon attack, you can expend one Wave point to accelerate its velocity, adding +1 to the attack and damage rolls.

Velocity (1+ points) The attack gains a +2 bonus to the attack roll.

Density (1+ points) The attack gains a +2 bonus to the damage roll.

Approach Lightspeed (4 points) The attack immediately hits, instead of rolling, and deals Radiant damage instead of its normal type.

Isolated Well

In place of an attack, you can expend 1 Wave point to force a creature within 40 feet to make a Strength saving throw or be pushed 10 feet in a direction of your choice or be knocked prone.

Expand (2+ points) One additional creature can be targeted for every 2 points spent.

Crush (1+ points) A target additionally takes 1d8 force damage on a failed saving throw for each point spent.

Pull (1+ points) The target is moved an additional 5 feet on a failed saving throw for each point spent.

Slingshot

As a bonus action, you can expend one Wave point to leap to a point within 20 feet (without expending any movement).

Hold (2+ points) You instead fly to a point within range, and can make this movement again on your next turn. Afterwards, you fall as normal. For every 1 point spent after the initial 2, this effect lasts one additional round.

Speed (1+ points) You can move an additional 10 feet.

Impact (1+ points) The first time you move using this manipulation, all creatures within 10 feet of where you end your movement must make a Dexterity saving throw or take 1d6 Bludgeoning damage per point spent.

Pullstar

After making a successful weapon attack, you can expend one Wave point to magnetize the projectile and a different target within 90 feet of the first target. Make an attack roll against the new target with your Risk attack bonus, dealing 1d6 Piercing damage on a hit.

Bounce (1+ points) An additional new creature can be targeted in the same way for each point spent.

Density (1+ points) The damage of the attack against the second target increases by 1d6. This bonus damage decreases by 1 die for each subsequent creature targeted by this manipulation.

Magnetize Vitality

As an action, you can force a creature within 20 feet to make a Constitution saving throw against your Risk DC, as you attempt to cause their life essence to be pulled into your form. On a failed save, the target takes 1d8 Necrotic damage, and you are healed for the amount of damage the target took.

Strength (1+ points) The damage increases by 1d8 for each point spent.

Influence (1+ points) The range increases by 15 for each point spent.

Transfusion (1 point) You instead reverse the polarity, granting the target your vitality. The target does not make a saving throw. Instead, you choose to lose hit points up to the maximum amount that could be rolled for this manipulation's damage, and the target gains an equal amount of hit points.

Junk Shell

You pull up rock and debris from your surroundings to gravitate onto your body, forming a hardy layer of armor. As an action, you can expend two Wave points to gain a +2 bonus to your AC. You must concentrate on this effect as if concentrating on a spell, and it lasts up to one minute. Additionally, if you make an unarmed strike while under this effect, the unarmed strike deals 2d6 damage, instead of its normal amount, and you can use your Risk modifier, in place of your strength modifier, for its attack and damage rolls. However, each time you make an unarmed strike in this way, the AC bonus granted by this technique decreases by 1, and the effect ends if the bonus is reduced to 0.

Material (2+ points) The effect grants an additional +1 AC for every 2 points spent.

Gauntlets (1 point) The damage of the unarmed strike increases to 2d8.

Aerodynamics (1 point) The unarmed strikes count as light weapons for purposes of two-weapon fighting.

When you adopt this sepcialization at 1st level, you bizarrely gain the innate ability to fire small beams of energy when imitating a finger gun. Your empty hand can be used as a weapon which deals 1d10 force damage and has the tactless, ranged (40/80), maneuverable, and light properties.

Speedswap

Starting at 3rd level, you can stow one weapon and draw a new weapon as part of the attack with that weapon. Additionally, when making a successful attack with a ranged weapon that lacks the two-handed property, you gain one Armament point. All armament points disappear at the end of your turn. You can use these armament points in the following ways:

Momentum Shot. You can expend any amount of Armament points when making an attack with a two-handed ranged weapon to add that amount to both the attack and damage rolls.

Heavy Shot. You can expend two Armament points when making an attack with a two-handed ranged weapon to push the target of the attack back 15 feet in a straight line on a succcessful hit.

Quick Shot. You can expend 3 armament points to make a single attack with your Extra Weapon feature (no action required).

Grenades

Starting at 6th level, you gain a number of extra backup options to use when the going gets tough. You have a number of grenades equal to your Proficiency bonus, and regain all at the end of a long rest. As an action, you can throw a grenade to a point you can see within 40 feet. All targets within 15 feet of that point must make a Dexterity saving throw, or suffer the effects of the grenade. You choose from the following effects when you throw the grenade.

Frag. On a failed save, a creature takes 2d10 Fire damage + 2d10 Thunder damage, or half as much on a success.

Flashbang, On a failed save, a creature is blinded until the end of your next turn.

Starting at 9th level, when using a bonus action to attack via two-weapon fighting, you can attack twice, instead of once, with your offhand weapon.

Trigger Finger

Starting at 11th level, once on each of your turns, you can make a single attack with a firearm if you are not incapacitated or otherwise prevented from shooting. This increases to two attacks upon reaching 17th level in this class.

Bullet Hell

Starting at 14th level, once per turn when you make a firearm attack with disadvantage using the Automatic property or the Akimbo fighting style, you can instead make that attack without disadvantage (you do not replace the attack again for an automatic weapon, you simply make an exception and make the attack without disadvantage). You can do this twice per turn starting at 18th level.

Heavily Armed

Starting at 17th level, you gain 2 Armament points at the beginning of each of your turns.

Threaten

When you adopt this archetype at 1st level, you can try to keep your foes unsure with your words. In place of an attack, you can force a target within 60 feet who can see and hear you and shares a language with you to make a Wisdom saving throw against your Risk DC. On a failed save, the target's next attack roll before the end of your next turn has disadvantage, and the next attack against them before the end of your next turn has advantage. You must be holding a gun.

Mind Games

Starting at 3rd level, you gain a number of Psych points equal to your Risk modifier, and regain all points at the end of along rest. You start with two ways to use these points:

Single Out. In place of an attack or as a bonus action, you can expend one Psych point threaten a target. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw against your Risk DC or become frightened of you until the end of your next turn.

Lob. In place of an attack, you can throw a nearby object, such as a rock or glass bottle. You can throw this to a distance of 60 feet, making a thrown ranged weapon attack against a creature within range. This attack uses your Risk modifier for its attack and damage rolls, and your Risk die for its damage die. Additionally, on a hit, you can expend a psych point to force the target to make a Constitution saving throw against your Risk DC or fall prone.

Suckershot

Additionally at 3rd level, your weapon attacks deal extra damage equal to your Proficiency bonus against targets frightened of you. Starting at 11th level, you also add your Risk modifier to this extra damage.

Improved Mind Games

Starting at 6th level, you can accurately take stock of the situation and command your allies to victory. The amount of Psych points you have increases to twice your Risk modifier, and you gain a new use for your Threaten charges.

Scheme. As a bonus action, you expend one Psych point and choose one creature within 60 feet who can hear you. The target gains a d6 which they can add to one saving throw, attack roll, or ability check before the end of your next turn. The creature can wait until after it rolls the d20 before deciding to use the bonus die, but must decide before the DM says whether the roll succeeds or fails. Once the bonus die is rolled, it is lost.

No, no, THAT way! As a bonus action, you expend a Psych point, then frantically point, wave, and hope, casting Control Flames as a bonus action.

You always have advantage on attack rolls against these targets. You cannot change or ammend these targets after gaining this features.

Hateful

Starting at 3rd level, once per long rest as a bonus action, you can enter a state of uncontrolled hatred. This state lasts for one minute, or until you are incapacitated. While hateful, your weapon attacks with your firearms ignore resistance and immunities, and do not provoke reactions. You gain another use of this feature at 14th level.

If this causes you to succeed the save, you can additionally teleport up to 30 feet to a space you can see as part of the same reaction. Additionally, if you use the Close Call tactic to cause an attack against you to miss, then you can teleport up to 20 feet as part of the same reaction.

Spark. In place of a weapon attack, you can make a ranged attack roll using your Risk attack bonus against a target within 80 feet. The attack deals fire damage equal to your Risk die, and on a successful hit, the target and all creatures within 10 feet of them take fire damage equal to your Risk die.
