Tool
Rare
As an action, activate this bomb and make a ranged weapon attack. All targets adjacent to this bomb when it detonates must make a Dexterity save, or be thrown back 10 feet. Any creature within 10 feet of this bomb when it detonates receives 3d6 force damage. Creatures adjacent to the explosion receive an additional 1d8 fire damage.This clear and bronze colored, palm sized device is surrounded in a clear casing; through which several dozen cogs and gears of varying sizes and angles can be found. At the top is a pull tab, which begins the mechanisms moving. The bomb will explode 3 seconds after engaging the mechanism. Inside of this clockwork bomb is a large amount of explosive clay, gunpowder condensed down and mixed into natural mud. This mass of mud is lined with a highly flammable gel, which will ignite when the final cog at the base of the bomb is released, through the turning of the surrounding cogs, and strikes a flint with force to send sparks into the volatile gel. The clockwork bomb will then explode with force, setting nearby creatures and flammable objects ablaze with the burning gel.
