Deuce Traveler's Six Nights to Yearsend (Ptolus one-shot)

Just a little confused Deuce.
In your first post you mentioned a 10% discount on non magical weapons and armors.
I assumed it to be all other magical items.
What is the 10% discount used for?

Also can you give me the full benefits of the demon gun (enhancement bonuses, etc)?
Also, the unholy power of the gun does not suit my alignment. Is it possible to exchange it for a different +2 enhancement?

Disruption might be a good choice.

Actually, this was part of the first post and is in the sblock:

Ebbert's Outfitters sells only equipment and not weapons or armor. For your characters, Ebbert sells any piece of non-magical, non-weapon, non-armor equipment found in the PHB for 10% off (Pages 128-129 of the Player's Handbook. Stuff like rope, clothing, torches, etc. This includes masterwork versions).

I decided to make it that misc magical items, weapons, and armor could only be discounted by 5% and then only with a contact such as a weaponsmith, armorsmith, technical organization, etc. I wanted to avoid the fact that if people could get a discount for all items from one place or a 10% discount for weapons, armor, and magical equipment then every player would want one such contact.

As for the demon gun, you can switch out for a angelic gun (same as demon gun, but blessed by an angel's spirit instead of by a trapped demon), and we'll say it has holy bullets. Will that work?
 

wysiwyg, I found this old post with your character's contacts

Ok, here are your contacts:

Ippicus (Rogue 2/Expert 8), is a member of the Shuul and an important engineer in their organization. The contact is able to get Kareus a 5% discount on technological equipment, weapons, and ammunition and also likes to show off several of his own theoretical designs. Ippicus has a twisted sense of humor, and enjoys watching Kareus try out some of his latest prototypes, sometimes to Kareus' dismay hence Ippicus' discount that he offers in order to make up for any embarrassments. Although both Ippicus and Kareus have joined Shuul, Kareus has not moved as far up in the organization due to his focus on adventure (or as Ippicus likes to call it, field work) rather than scientific application.

Loraine (Bard 3/Knight of the Chord 2), is a member of the Knights of the Chord, and used to adventure with Kareus back when they were younger and, in her stories wilder. The break up was not on the best of terms, although they remain friends despite Loraine's disturbing habit of bringing up the reasons for their separation at the most awkward times and in the most awkward fashion. The knights sometimes patrol Oldtown with other Orders or along with the City Watch and are a respected organization of Ptolus. Loraine is a solid source of information when it comes to the happenings in the local law enforcement.

Marcad Shever (Aristocrat 3/Fighter 4) of House Shever is a friend and sometimes business partner of Kareus. Marcad has helped foster business contact among his more technologically interested family members and the Shuul, often using Kareus as a negotiator between the two well-to-do factions. Although a solid businessman, Marcad is more interested in mundane trade rather than in technology, which he finds surprisingly boring. Through working with Marcad's non-technological business partners, Kareus has formed a network that allows him to enjoy a 5% discount on non-magical, non-weapon, non-armor equipment.

Let's change the discount of Marcad Shever since you already get a 10% discount on non-magical, non-weapon, non-armor equipment from the Ebbert's Outfitters connection. Instead, let's say you get a 5% discount on your choice of:

1.) Magic Weapons
2.) Magic Armor
3.) Magic Potions, Scrolls, Wands, Staffs, and Rods
4.) Or all other magic items not included above
 

Super! I'll choose a 5% discount on weapons (since their my most expensive items).
I still need to know: is a demon gun is a +1 weapon?

Is it possible to just get a plain +2 instead of holy?
 

Sure, but the advantage of the demon gun (and my made-up idea of inverting it and creating the deva gun) is that it never needs to be reloaded as it reproduces its own ammunition. I would say that for the same price (before discount) you can go ahead and make it a +2, but you won't get the ability to create infinite bullets. A normal +2 dragon pistol would cost 8,550gp. Looking at the DMG, it looks like the infinite ammunition ability is something between a +2 to +3 enhancement. Alternately, you can keep the +1 and have infinite bullets, but be able to generate special ammunition of your choice twice a day for the same price.

D'oh! I don't know how that got in there. I'll fix it.
