Howler Pistol
Built from a processed monster horn, this pistol swaps its usual piercing shot for a beam of pure sonic force.
Designed by a gunsmith as a personal challenge, a howler pistol strikes a miniature version of the sonic horn siege weapon's resonating orb with its hammer to generate beams of sonic energy. A howler pistol is a +1 Striking Dragon-Mouth Pistol that deals sonic damage instead of piercing damage and doesn't have the Concussive trait.
Craft Requirements The initial raw materials must include the powdered horn from a Soniphak, processed into a resonating orb.
