One minor point regarding technology: I seem to recall hearing somewhere that the setting includes firearms. Is that true, or am I thinking of a different setting?

It does have alchemical firearms. IIRC, they're pretty rare, as are the people capable of producing and maintaining them. Ptolus has a definite vibe running through it of being in the shadow of greater times past, so there's a lot of powerful mojo left from earlier times that doesn't work (or doesn't work correctly) because the knowledge to keep it running has been lost.
