Can I put in a request for an improved, improved flasher launcher.

Jan is a top level fiddler and yet his improved flasher launcher is pretty lame. Also, why would he want Cromwell to mess around with his invention when he could tinker away himself:

At 1 million xp:

By the addition of an alarming number of pulleys, cogs and wheels, as well as at least two whistles, Jan has managed to make reloading the weapon easier - Jan's Flasher Launcher can now fire twice per round.

At 2 million xp:

Using just an empty bottle and a pair of glasses of identification, Jan has managed to fashion a telescopic sight for his crossbow. When he's stopped annoying Minsc by getting him to look down it the wrong way, this results in an additional +2 to the weapon's thaco.

At 4 million xp:

Jan has developed a special gizmo that he can fit to the crossbow, enabling him to loose five crossbow bolts at once.

Once per day, Jan can create a special racks of bolts (and an additional rack at 5, 6, 7 and 8 million xp). These are used like normal ammunition, but do 5x(1d6+1) damage while also reducing the apr to one. These only last for 12 hours.

(Or cone of cold effect?? a la shot gun? - 5d6 damage to anyone within 30 ft of a 40 degree angle in front of Jan)

At 6 million xp:

You were sure that last time you looked, Jan's crossbow didn't have a rectangular box labelled 'Magazine - ^this way up^' sticking off it.

With this addition, as well as several more pulleys and you're sure that you can see your prized Gesen bow string tangled up in there somewhere, Jan has now created the world's first automatic crossbow. Normal apr for the weapon is increased by another 1 (to a total of 3 per round). In addition, if Jan gets some peace and quiet to load the magazine, he can fire it on 'Full auto'. Once per day, Jan can create 20 'rapid-fire' bolts - these strike as normal +1 bolts, but set Jan's apr to 10. These bolts only last for 12 hours.
