At 3rd level, the monk gains the Monastic Tradition feature,
which offers you the choice of a subclass. The following Path
of the Gunmage option is available to you when making that
choice.

Perhaps the name mage is deceptive. After all, the Vaskil
Warriorbrood are hardly mages. Certainly, magic flows
through their veins, along their arm, into their trigger fingers,
and through their fire arms. But this magic is not the magic
of the cloistered wizards of Odonburg or the stalwart
abjurers of Presson's Enclave. Nor is it powered by the
elementals who built Grand Casar. But their magic is the true
magic: the magic of self, fueled by the purest existence.
Forbidden to use magic by their Pressonian masters, the
Anorians were instead rewarded the pistol, a primitive
weapon invented during the Year of Fire by the azers. But
they accepted this gift and made it their own. Guns in hand,
the Warriorbrood is a force to be reckoned with. Be thee
damned if ye should stand in the path through which they
ride.

3rd-level Path of the Gunmage feature
When you choose this tradition at 3rd level, your special
martial arts training leads you to master the use of firearms
(see the sidebar). You gain proficiency with firearms if you
don't already have it and these weapons are monk weapons
for you. You also gain the following benefits:
You ignore the loading and reloading properties for
firearms with which you are proficient.
Being within 5 feet of a hostile creature doesn't impose
disadvantage on your ranged attack rolls.
You can draw or stow two one-handed firearms when you
would normally be able to draw or stow only one.

3rd-level Path of the Gunmage feature
Beginning at 3rd level, as a bonus action, you can double your
proficiency bonus on the next ranged weapon attack you
make using a firearm so long as you make the attack before
the start of your next turn.

3rd-level Path of the Gunmage feature
Also at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in smith's tools or
leatherworker's (your choice).

6th-level Path of the Anorian Gunmage feature
At 6th level, during the first round of combat, on an initiative
count equal to 20 plus your Dexterity modifier, you can spend
2 ki points to draw a one-handed firearm and make a single
ranged attack with it. You can't use this feature when you are
surprised.
6th-level Path of the Anorian Gunmage feature
Also at 6th level, your attacks with your firearms count as
magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and
immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

11th-level Path of the Anorian Gunmage feature
Once you reach 11th level, in combat, you get a special
reaction that you can take once on every creature's turn,
except your turn. You can use this special reaction only to use
your Deflect Missiles feature, and you can't use it on the same
turn that you take your normal reaction.

17th-level Path of the Anorian Gunmage feature
At 17th level, you learn how to shower your enemies in a hail
of gunfire few can avoid. As an action, you can spend 1 ki
point to create a 30-foot cone of bullets. To do so, you must be
wielding a firearm and it must be loaded. Each creature in the
area must make a Dexterity saving throw against your ki save
DC. A target takes the damage normal for your firearm on a
failed saving throw, or half as much damage on a success.
This attack expends only one piece of ammunition.

The Legends of Omerian campaign setting uses firearms.
Firearms, like simple and martial weapons, have their own
separate proficiency, firearms proficiency. Additionally,
firearms have properties unique to them.
Ammunition. Omerian firearms use bullets or shells (for
shotguns). Once fired, the ammunition is destroyed. A box of
20 rounds for a pistol, revolver, or a rifle costs 5 gp, and a box
of 20 shells for a shotgun costs 7 gp. They all weigh 1 lbs.
Reload. The number of shots a weapon can fire is limited
by its reload property. To reload a weapon that has expended
all of its shots with new bullets or shells, a character must
use its action or bonus action (character's choice) to reload
the weapon.
Shotgun. Shotguns discharge numerous small spherical
pellet-like projections. If an attacker fires a shotgun at a
target within 5 feet of it, the target takes an additional 1d8
piercing damage from the attack.

If you use the optional feat rules in your games, the

firearms
You are an expert at wielding two firearms at once, granting
you the following benefits:
Increase your Dexterity score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
You can draw or stow two one-handed weapons when you
would normally be able to draw or stow only one.

When you take the Attack action and attack with a one-
handed firearm that you're holding in one hand, you can
use a bonus action to attack with a different one-handed
firearm that you're holding in the other hand.

You are an exceptional shot with ranged weapons and can
make shots that others find impossible. You gain the
following benefits:
Increase your Dexterity score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
On each of your turns, you can use your bonus action to
carefully aim your weapon. So long as you immediately
make a ranged weapon attack after you aim the weapon,
you can roll a 1d4 and add the result to the attack roll. If
you do anything else other than take the Attack action, you
lose the benefit of the aim.
The long range of all your ranged weapon attacks
increases by 100 feet.

Your lightning fast reflexes help you get the upperhand in
most fights. You gain the following benefits:
You gain proficiency in the Sleight of Hand skill unless
you already have it, and your proficiency bonus is doubled
for any ability check you make that uses this skill.
You gain a bonus equal to double your proficiency bonus
to your initiative.
If you are first in initiative order, the first attack that you
make on your first turn is made with advantage.

You learn a number of impressive tricks with your weapon.
Two of these tricks require saving throws; the trick save DC
for these shots is 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Dexterity
modifier. Whenever you hit a creature with an attack made
with a ranged weapon, you can impose one of the following
effects on that target:
It must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw against your
trick save DC or be knocked prone.
It must make a Strength saving throw against your trick
save DC. If it fails, the creature is disarmed and the
weapon falls into a space of your choice within 10 feet of
the creature.
The creature can't take reactions until the end of your next
turn.
Once you use one of these effects, you can't use any of
these effects again until you complete a short or long rest.

The following magic guns can be easily inserted into any
campaign, but are particularly welcome in the Legends of
Omeria campaign setting.

Weapon (revolver), rare
These magic revolvers were specially forged by members of
the Anorian Warriorbrood to hunt the demons plaguing
Vaskil Valley at the closure of the Hand of the Three. They've
since been outlawed by Pressonian abjurers.
You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with
this magic weapon.
When you hit a fiend with this weapon, the fiend must
make a DC 15 Charisma saving throw. On a failed saving
throw, the fiend is banished as per the banishment spell. You
must still concentrate on the spell as if you were the caster.

Weapon (bullet), legendary
This adamantine bullet bears runes that invoke the name
Vapul, the demonic god of ice and death. It is rumored that
there is only one in existence. When this bullet is fired from a
weapon within its normal range, the bullet
automatically hits its intended target.
If the target has 150 hit points or fewer,
it dies and the bullet is destroyed.
Otherwise, the bullet deals the
damage normal for the firearm, and
it can be recovered from
the target with a successful
DC 15 Dexterity
(Medicine) check.
