Mercy

Created by Nullzero

Whisper is a delicate five-shot palm pistol forged from enchanted silver and ivory, its barrel etched with protective runes that shimmer faintly in moonlight. The weapon's grip, carved from unicorn ivory, feels impossibly light in hand despite its arcane reinforcement. Silver filigree traces elegant patterns along the slide, each line a conduit for the magic woven into the firearm's construction. When fired, the bullets leave trails of ethereal light, dealing both mundane and radiant damage to their targets. The gun rests in a hip holster of supple leather, blessed by a cleric of the light domain to keep the weapon close to its bearer's heart. Whisper is rarely drawn, for its purpose is sacred—used only when all other options have been exhausted and innocent lives hang in the balance. Those who wield it report a profound sense of responsibility, as if the weapon itself judges the worthiness of each shot. The ivory grip warms slightly when held with righteous intent, but grows cold and slippery if wielded with malice or greed. Legend suggests that Whisper was created by a legendary artificer as a tool for mercy killings and the protection of the defenseless. Each bullet fired from its chamber carries a whisper of divine grace, making it impossible to miss an intended target who poses a genuine threat to the innocent.
