No special rules, damage is good but not insane, they fill a certain fantasy niche that might not be appropriate for everywhere, but fits a lot better than you would think. Just a sample of the gun using characters I've seen:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A drow elf swashbuckler rogue who was part of Jaraxle's crew in Waterdeep: Dragon Heist</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A giff first mate on a Spelljammer vessel</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A stranded half aquatic elf pirate bard who had Jack Sparrow "one shot" left for his rival.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A Dr Frankenstein mad scientist artificer from Lamordia who used it as his personal protection</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A gunslinger archeologist exploring the Wild West of Droaam in Eberron.</li> </ul>To me, they were no more disruptive than a character playing a samurai or a warforged. Not appropriate for every setting, but nothing inherently wrong about them as an option.</blockquote>
