Overview

Excerpt

The rumored weapon of the long-deceased Alluria, its powers are unknown.

Appearance

...

bow used by Alluria, the last of the 12 children of Lathander to reside in the lands of The Riding. After the body of Alluria was returned to its intended resting place, some essence of the consciousness of Alluria entered the bow. 

Appearance

Initially it is a slender but exceptionally long bow of yew. In the hands of a dedicated user, the bow will change size to match the desires of its wielder.

When inspected for arcane powers before the consciousness of Alluria entered it, a purple nimbus of exceeding large size but significantly of faded color appeared around the weapon.

History and Origin

  • A vision that appeared during an Identify spell cast on her bow revealed a plea to come collect her dead body.
  • Upon being returned to its intended resting place, the body of Alluria dissolved into stardust and sparkles, briefly formed into an outline of the torso of Alluria, and then entered the bow.

Usage and Effects

In the form of a short bow, it does 1d6 piercing damage. Magical properties cause it to be +1 to hit and to do +1 damage.

Additional magical effects:

  • Called Shot: Once per day, the wielder can make a called shot which will automatically hit as if a 20 were rolled. This cannot be used against any earth-aspected creature.
  • Voice of Alluria: Every once in a while, the voice of Alluria can be summoned or will appear on its own to provide commentary.
