About the Net Gun

Where the whipcord binds a single limb, the net gun swallows a target whole. Fired from a compact launcher, its weighted mesh expands in flight and drops over a fleeing mark, tangling arms and legs and pinning them down without a wound to explain to the client. Guild hunters favor it for exactly that cleanliness: a bounty posted alive is worth nothing dead, and a net leaves no scar, no blood, and no argument. The mesh can be cut or muscled through given time, so a wise hunter follows the net with the binders — but for the crucial second between spotting a runner and losing them in a crowd, few tools are surer.

Notes

Uncommon. Fires an expanding weighted net that encases the target. On a hit against a Large or smaller creature, the target must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw (DC 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Dexterity modifier) or be Restrained. A netted creature (or an adjacent ally) can free it by using an action to make a DC 14 Strength (Athletics) check, or by dealing 10 slashing damage to the net (AC 10). A capture weapon — no lasting harm to the mark.
