Dragon Bone Sniper Rifle Item in Under an Iron Sky | World Anvil

Dragon Bone Sniper Rifle

What is more terrifying than a Dragon bone bow? A gun of course.
A beautiful weapon of war made by the Black Flight to give their non-dragon troops the same kind of firepower as a dragon. The rifle is enchanted with dragon fire and does not need bullets to be fired. The weapon can make its own flame. It does this with the help of its user. The user channels their magic into the weapon and in turn, the weapon fires a blaze of pure magical flame.   The weapon has been viewed as a symbol of power for many years. It is the main weapon that mortals think about using when signing up to join the Black Flight's army. As Pfussäwinn Witts grew in power they started to threaten to take control of the army. The Black Flight stopped making the rifle and started to give it to soldiers that they trusted. As a sign of trust to that solider and a futile way of reminding everyone who was really in control.

Mechanics & Inner Workings

The weapon has two modes. Sniper mode and normal rifle mode. The modes can be switch between with a combination of magic and moving parts. This makes the weapon a perfect choice for just about anything.

Significance

The rifle is viewed as a symbol of power and trust. The rifle is only given to soldiers who have proven their loyalty to the Black Flight. As Pfussäwinn Witts has gained more and more power over the country the rifle is now viewed as a symbol of how much things have changed. But it is also viewed as a symbol of change and still loyalty to the Flight. The Black Flight hopes that this will be enough to regain their country.
