Night Hawk Slayer
🕑 Added 2025-08-26 15:20:50 +0000 UTCWeapon (pistol or shortsword), rare (requires attunement)
This magic weapon can be used as either a shortsword or pistol. Regardless of how it's used, you gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it. When you make an attack with the sword or pistol, you can immediately make an extra attack as a bonus action using the weapon's other option. If both attacks are against the same target, you have advantage on the second attack roll.
Swooping Strike. The weapon has 3 charges and regains all expended charges daily at dusk. Immediately after you fire the pistol, you can expend 1 of the weapon's charges to teleport to an unoccupied space that you can see within 5 feet of the target you shot at, provided the new space is within 30 feet of you.
The peace among the Heavensteppe tiers is sometimes tenuous. Despite the best intentions and training of even the elite Steel Hawks, who ensure the safety of everyday common folk, there are always new and unexpected evils to uproot—evils that require a more surgical approach, lest their threat cascade into panic and chaos.
Chaos is the battlefield of evil, and the city's forebears were all too aware of the cost of Order. When Order and Good feel easy, the Night Hawks are working their hardest to keep it.
The Night Hawks' talons stalk the darkest corners of Heavensteppe, piercing deep into the underbelly of unknown cabals and syndicates before the militant Steel Hawks even know their names.
As one Steel Hawk General put, 'When you see a Night Hawk, you probably didn't. And even if you did, it's well above your pay grade, so you may as well have not seen them in the first place. Move along, soldier.'
