The RainBow is used only by the wood elves. This weapon is strictly guarded by the wood elves. Long time ago, Ehlonna the goddess forged this bow and gave it to the best protecters of her forest. There is only one bow and is being carried by the captain of the wood elves.
It is a glimmering long-bow switching colors from time to time. The string is made from unicorn tail, and the wood for the bow is being made from the tree of live.

I like how you changed the stats from the original prismatic spray (though I am finding the whole concept of color-coding magic a little annoying).
The undead destroying function seems a little over-powerful (considering how powerful some undead are ..)
3.5/5 (it needs more background info, backstory would be nice, spellcheck advised)
