This repurposed military-issue revolver is designed for use by a battlemage of exceptional power and prowess. It utilizes Rune and Elemental Magic as well as mechanical aspects, culminating in a well-rounded weapon useful in both close-range and long-range combat. It was created by famed smithmage Darius Laden, whose magical power manifested partially as an incredible knowledge of the workings of magic… and a certain level of insanity that has to come with holding knowledge never before held by the human mind.

The military-issue revolver was first gutted and recast to allow for the installment of the aetherometer and aether infusers, as well as a secondary hammer and a secondary trigger. The barrel was extended and fitted with parallel rows of aether-powered elemental attractor coils to allow for more control over the new non-physical ammunition. Elemental Conduit Points were created by runes so that the collected aether and elemental energies could be easily transferred to where they are needed to make the gun work. The new hand-guard doubles as a stable connection point for the Distribution Bar, which holds the three aether intake spheres.

The gun can still fire physical ammunition; the primary hammer and trigger operate the material aspects of the gun. Rifling in the lengthened barrel increases the accuracy and range of the physical ammunition, and the barrels have been modified to take most calibers of bullet.

The gun’s real power is in its control of the mystic forces. By turning up the knob on the aetherometer, the user can select the level of absorption by the intake spheres. Once the intake spheres absorb aether energy, it is fed into the distribution bar, which takes it to the barrel, handle, and cylinder reservoirs. Cocking the secondary hammer readies a shot by drawing energy from the reservoirs. The Rune enchantments on the barrels of the cylinder react to both the gun’s own magic and the user’s, so a more powerful use will be able to create a very powerful blast, depending on their runic prowess. Pulling the secondary trigger releases a firebolt. After six shots, the reservoirs need to be refilled with the aetherometer, but ammunition is effectively infinite.

With full reservoirs, ammunition can be loaded and both hammers cocked for an enchanted burning bullet. Enchanted bullets are not affected by gravity and will continue straight indefinitely until they hit an object, at which point they will explode in a burst of flame and residual magic energy, usually taking a chunk of the target with them.
