The Dark Art of Curse Forging

Overview: Curse Forging is a perilous art practiced by the Gunwrights, combining traditional gunsmithing techniques with the forbidden knowledge of dark sorcery. Each firearm is not only a weapon but also a vessel of malevolent energy.

Key Elements:

  • Shadow Metals: Sourced from mines tainted with dark magic, these metals absorb and amplify negative energies.
  • Curse Imbuement: During the forging process, curses are woven into the very essence of the firearm, aligning the weapon with specific dark powers.

The Rituals of the Gunwrights

Curse Binding Ceremony:

  • Blood Offering: A Gunwright must offer a drop of their own blood, binding their life force with the firearm, ensuring a deep connection between the creator and the creation.
  • Chanting of the Cursed Verses: As the metal cools, cursed verses are chanted to activate and bind the curse within the firearm.

Midnight Assembly:

  • Performed under a new moon, the assembly of cursed firearms is a silent, solemn ceremony ensuring the dark enchantments are securely sealed within the components.

Notorious Cursed Firearms

The Sorrowmaker Pistol:

  • Known for inducing overwhelming despair in its victims, the Sorrowmaker leaves its targets incapacitated, drowning in their own sadness.

The Vengeance Rifle:

  • This rifle allows its wielder to seek retribution, granting each bullet the ability to seek out and strike those who have wronged the shooter, guided by a spectral force.

Overview: Being a Gunwright is a double-edged sword. While they possess the knowledge to create powerful cursed weapons, they also suffer from the “Gunwright’s Burden.”

The Gunwright’s Burden:

  • Echoes of the Cursed: Gunwrights often hear whispers and cries of the spirits bound within their creations, a constant reminder of the dark paths they have chosen.
