-A "breath weapon" could be anything expelled violently from the mouth (such as the classic dragon's fire, banshee's wail or zombie's poisonous vomit) but the Spewer's weapon could also be anything else non-mouth-related that behaves similarly, such as a flamethrower. The class lends itself exceptionally well to reflavoring via the addition of elemental-type classes to alter the nature of the exact energy/substance being spewed.

Nearby creatures are hit before further ones. If multiple creatures are equidistant and the attack cannot hit all of them, select which will be hit randomly. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Conditions:** When the trigger die is 10+, this weapon inflicts its wielder's choice of the Afraid, Bleary, or Deprived conditions to its target. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Area Weapon:** This weapon does not suffer failure chances from concealment and failure chances from mismatched sizes between attacker and target are reduced by 12. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Fluid Flow:** This weapon flows easily around and through targets, causing it to ignore failure chances from partial cover (failure chance of 6) and any cover created by creatures hiding behind one another. Only complete and total cover such as that provided by windowless walls protects targets from your Spewer attacks. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Choking Vulnerable:** If you have the Choking condition, you cannot make Spewer attacks. Breath weapons don't work if there's no breath to be had. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Range Falloff:** This attack has a special failure chance of 6 against targets within 6-10 meters. It cannot be used against targets further away than 10 meters at all. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Constrained:** The attack's effect emanates outwards from its starting point (the corner of the triangle that's adjacent to you). Walls and solid barriers can prevent its spread and protect things behind them. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Huff And Puff:** This weapon is significantly slower to reload than most, as it requires you to regenerate an internal source of energy between uses. After you've made a Spewer attack, you cannot make another one right away. At the beginning of each turn after using a Spewer attack, roll a trigger die: if the result is 9+, you have regained the ability to make more Spewer attacks. Double-attacking with this weapon is impossible. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Ammunition:** When the trigger die rolled with the attack is 1-3, the attack uses 1 point of Supply or one use of an Ammo Bag item. This weapon cannot be used if you have no Supply/Ammo Bag uses remaining. |

-^Demolition Ground |Space has been set aside for properly testing large munitions. Adventurers can spend a training fee of 1 Supply in the establishment to temporarily increase their Whelm combat skill by +1 until the end of the current session. A Demolition Ground cannot be used more than once in a given session by any single adventurer. |
-^Spewer School |The settlement hosts an institution that teaches the secrets of this class for a small fee. Keystones of this class can be purchased here for 1 Supply each. |
-^Squad |The settlement is home to a squad of 10 soldiers focusing on this class's weapon type. A single settlement can have multiple versions of this enterprise. All 10 soldiers are level 5 and have the same abilities/statistics, determined by you. At least two of the soldier's five abilities need to be weapon abilities, and all of the soldier's abilities need to be ones personally known by the retiring adventurer who establishes the squad. Squads fight for the interests of their local settlement. If a squad is wiped out, it can be restored to fighting order by spending 5 Supply. |
