Yes, the appearance of the guns does not appear to be too far off a flint lock tech. I actually bought a box of them as well as a krootox,4 kroothounds, and a shaper. I have seen those knarlocks before (they look great), but boy are they expensive! The kroot ( or  Spatak {Spay-tak} in my homebrew )are an offshoot of a more bestial core jungle race that includes many other animals ( based on the kroot hound/krootox etc.. - a good portion of the creatures from that region share the same ancestry - ). They gained access to older powder weapon technology about 100 years ago from a radical splinter group of sun god worshipping dwarves. The dwarves were hoping to use the Spatak as a buffer between themselves and the rapidly colonizing humans "invading" their continent. Here is what I have been thinking about for the evolved Spatak IMC as a PC race:  +2 Dex, +2 Con, -2 Int, -2 ChaMedium sized30 feet base land speedlow light vision +1 Natural Armor+2 racial bonus on saves versus poison Special Racial ability : sharp quills ( provides a bonus vs grapple attempts - still thinking about the details here - see below)Ranger as favored class ( also qualifies for my racially restricted witch/shaman  core class - )Probably LA+1 ( especially justified if I go the natural poison route - again, see below )I'm also thinking about adding a special ability that allows the Spatak to "break off" upto #/day of their mane quills. These segments are perfectly balanced for shooting through a blowgun. Coated with local poisonous plant resins of course... The idea still needs some work. Maybe the poison should be naturally occuring -  (inside the quills? )</blockquote>
