Witherslant Guns

"The Weapon Masters seem to only sell guns for favors... and seein' as I can't charge a percentage on favors, I never carry 'em. That being said..." — Creepy CharlyThis is an adaptation of the Witherslant Guns from James Thomson's 1001 Science Fiction Weapons.
The Weapon Masters of Witherslant lurk in the world's dark corners, quietly plying the trade of death. No one knows much about them, save that they sell the finest weapons ever created, yet the price they charge is so dreadful that you still wouldn't want one.
