I had an idea for magic weapons which function much like a cross between a wand and a flintlock pistol. They're powered by magic dust which is loaded into the chamber but triggered by runes etched into the handle. They would offer low skill magic users access to powerful destructive spells. Their effects vary depending on the weapon and charge. Super powered blasts of air, fire, ice etc would be the norm.

A Spell Gun is a projectile weapon powered by a functional hybrid of fay and zarth magic. It focuses and amplifies certain kinds of Zarth Wielding, firing blasts of ice, air, fire, etc. However, it is powered by fay dust, somewhat like a black powder pistol. The kind of enchantment on the gun, the fay dust used to power it, and the user's magic all factor into the substance of the projectile.

Spell guns are uncommon, since zarth and a fay must work closely together both to make, maintain, and use them. In current story time they are mostly the purview of Mogan

Examples

The Woe's Cannons

The Wonderbuss

Is probably also a spell gun. This may be a good story hook to tie in with Mogan at some point.
