PF2 Item Alchemical Fireworks

Pathfinder 2 – Item

Alchemical – Fireworks

Here are a couple of items I have converted over to Pathfinder 2 from the Jade Regent Adventure Path. They are currently in use in all three games.

Fireworks

They are designed to be shot into the sky and explode for entertainment, but can be used as offensive weapons. On a critical fumble it explodes, using all of its charges in one go.

On a critical failure, the firework explodes dealing all remaining damage to all within the first range increment.
