I always wanted to make a DND character that's a warrior but was raised with mages so he believed he was a mage. The mages were just too nice to tell him that he was a warrior and kept on encouraging him on his "spells". He would throw a Molotov cocktail and call it fireball and other antics. Sometimes he would get frustrated and punch things and call it mage fist.
There was a D20Deathmatch where one of the characters was a barbarian who tried to extort a wizzard to make him a wizzard and got cursed into the behaviour you described.
See this little blade comes down slicing the rolled up paper with a rune drawn on it causing it to activate, then that causes the projectile to be pushed down the tube and depending on the rune it can imbue some aspects of the spell to the lead but gold works best for that
Fun History Fact: "Adventurer" means the same thing pmc contractor does.
Mercenary.
I think DnD lost something when this became less known tbh
Now you have tables arguing about whether they're doing a colonialism by burning down orc villages but the answer was SUPPOSED to be "Yes, how much gold did we get?"

"The hammers magic, and technically, he's not wrong on the potential of your lifespan in either direction.
Do you really want to get into an argument on the finer points of this?"

As we learned in Korea, it always eventually escalates from balloons to bullets

Did this literally with a bag of caltrops and Animate Objects, I got the biggest look of disgust from my DM, it still brings me joy to this day
