Slot 1: Banshee’s Wail

Situational: As a bonus action, you can spend 3 shots to make this weapon Revved for the next minute. When you do so, all non-allied creatures within 60 feet of you that can clearly hear you must succeed on a Charisma saving throw or become Frightened of you for the next minute. A creature Frightened in this way can reattempt the Charisma saving throw at the end of each of their turns, ending the effect on itself early on a success.

Additionally, while Revved, this weapon spends 3 shots at the start of each of your turns, and it gains an additional number of damage dice equal to your proficiency bonus.

In addition to normal perk rules, if this weapon doesn’t have at least 3 shots in its shot capacity to spend at the start of your turn, or if you reload it, it stops being Revved.
