Gun Jammer

" Target: Locked in sight. Click*. Wait-"

— a misfire caused by a Gun Jammer spell

The Caster causes the target Gun to become locked, and unable to fire. Until the end of the spell's duration, the Gun can't be used to fire a single shot.

Alternatively, if it's cast on a Gun held by the Caster, Gun Jammer causes the pressure on the trigger on the gun to become light and sensitive, allowing it to fire off more shots than it normally would.

Effect

A Gun Jammer spell takes 1 Action to cast and can be done so with no vocal components. Instead, the Caster must use Gun Jammer on a firearm or similar ranged weapon (such as a crossbow or hand crossbow). Short and long bows, slings, and other ranged weapons are immune to the effects of Gun Jammer.

The Caster must have Line of Sight to the target Object, in order to cast this spell. Gun Jammer creates a negative Spell-Stack on the weapon. While this Spell-Stack is in effect, Gun Jammer prevents the weapon from firing by seizing all of it's mechanics.

This effect lasts for 1 round per Caster's Psyche Modifier+ 1.

If the weapon is in possession of a Subject, then the weapon can roll a Grace save against this effect (DC:10+ Subject's Grace Modifier). If the item is magical, it also gets a bonus equal to it's enhancement modifier on the Grace save. Success indicates that the weapon can't be the target of a Gun Jammer spell by the same Caster until the end of the encounter.

Side/Secondary Effects

Gun Jammer may also be used to reduce the sensitivity of the trigger mechanics of the entire gun, allowing for multiple shots in 1 round. Whenever the Caster or owner would make an attack with the gun, they get 1 extra attack on one single Subject. Each time this spell confers an extra attack, it reduces the total duration of the spell by one.

A gun can only be effected once by a Gun Jammer spell cast by an individual Caster in one encounter.

Manifestation

" The Caster pinches two of their fingers to their thumb and presses hard. An audible click is heard, but it comes from the Caster's fingertips. The gun begins to fire with alarming accuracy and accelerated fire.
