Flare Gun
Break-action flare pistols are standard survival equipment for boaters, military aviators and other individuals whose travels may lead them to be lost at sea or in desolate wilderness areas. The intended use of a flare launcher is to fire a signal flare into the air to alert rescuers to the user’s location, and most flares can reach an altitude of at least 500 feet. Chances are good that World of Darkness characters won’t be using flares for signaling, though, and effective combat ranges for flares are much shorter because of their irregular flight paths. Flares launched from flare guns use the same mechanics as flares launched from shotguns (see p. 87).
