Firearms

Since the creation/discovery of gunpowder, there has always been people trying to make a weapon out of this highly volatile material. Gunpowder was created by a Gnomish Alchemist in the late 200s PDD, and the cannon was made not long after that.
     Guns on the other hand are a much newer piece of technology that was invented in the past 100 years. Ever since the invention of the first firearm, by the McGlocklin family, many different Gnomish families have redesigned and created their own unique versions. Guns are mainly found within the Gnomish towns in Graser. Guns outside of this area are normally carried by high ranking military officers or by members of the upper-class society.
