A drake rifle is a firearm made from the saliva glands of a drake. The firearm launches small bursts of empowered spittle instead of typical rounds of ammunition. A drake rifle is a +1 weapon. It's a distinct type of martial firearm that deals 1d10 poison damage with a range increment of 150 feet and reload 1. On a critical hit, the spittle clings to the target and they take persistent damage of the same type as the weapon equal to 1d4 + the number of weapon damage dice. A drake rifle does not add critical specialization effects.


Activate—Drake Shot 3 (manipulate)

Frequency once per day

Effect You fire a large, specialized burst designed to hamper your foes. Make a ranged Strike with the drake rifle. As long as the Strike isn't a critical failure, the drake rifle deals 1 splash damage per weapon damage die to the target and creatures within @Template[burst|distance:5]{5 feet} of the target. This splash damage is of the same type as its normal damage.

On a hit, the drake rifle provides one of the following additional effects based on its damage type:

  • Poison Noxious vapors fill the target's lungs. The target becomes Enfeebled 1 and Clumsy 1 for 1 minute.

Craft Requirements The initial raw materials must include the saliva glands of a ritually hunted drake with a breath weapon that deals the appropriate damage type for the drake rifle


Critical Specialisation Effects

Certain effects can grant you benefits when you make a Strike with certain weapons and get a critical success. This is called a critical specialisation effect. The exact effect depends on which weapon group your weapon belongs to, as listed below. You can always decide not to add the critical specialisation effect of your weapon.

Firearm: The target must succeed at a Fortitude save against your class DC or be stunned 1.
