Fletcher's Delight
By: Murometz

Bows, Arrows, Bolts, Braces and Quivers.

My father, Nelorts Ledatic (Neh-lort-us Led-atich), was the world’s greatest fletcher.

Aye, I know this will cause eye-rolling derision and doubt in the reader, for it is I, Joachim Ledatic, Son of the Arrowsmith, that scribes these words now.

Alas, my love for the man and his work, may indeed seem subjective and biased, but I feel an overwhelming calling, for having myself failed at my chosen life’s path, that of a sell-sword, at least i can in my waning years, catalogue and document my sire’s truer and purer profession.

My father made the finest crafted arrows, quivers, and bows this world has ever seen. But he was a man of great superstition, and feared magic. Feared, but respected it. And so I have dug up his detailed compilation of researched magical tools of the fletcher’s craft, his exhaustive lists, notes, and descriptions of legendary items and peculiar arcana. Arrows, bows, bolts and quivers, and braces. I hope in this manner, I can make the man immortal.

Included is my father’s treatise on his craft, entitled simply, Longbows. Required reading for all aspiring fletchers and bowyers.

Bone Bow By: fenixphire

This is another item made form Troll parts that I created for my game.  This one went to a bard, but it is well suited for anyone that can use a bow.

Coward's Lot, the Bow of Caldwell By: Mourngrymn
Items » Ranged Weapons » Combat

This item is not listed in many tombs of magic, nor is it detailed in any text books among the arcane. It is however sung about in many a tavern and bar across the coastal cities. The tale is sung more about the man who created it. His tale has been embellished time and again until he seemed more a god than the coward that he was.

Twigs of Rot By: Shadoweagle
Items » Ranged Weapons » Combat

“Bah!” The bowman cried, for his bow had fallen apart in his very hands, after firing but one arrow! “Wait until I get to that weaponsmith. These arrows are obviously cursed!” The bowman discarded the quiver of 200 arrows by the road, where scavengers found it, and each separate arrow went their own ways with different owners, as time passed. Some found them cursed. Others, found that they may not be as cursed as one thinks.

Useful Codex. Add 'Bracers' to the list of acceptable items as well. It really hurts when you don't wear them and you suck at using a bow. Its amazing how many colors your arm will turn.
