This +1 striking longbow is crafted through an alchemical ritual that blends bat fur, ash, blood, and wood into a sentient weapon, forever thirsty.
In its dormant state, the bow appears as a mundane wooden weapon, except for its perpetual coldness to the touch.
Awakened Spawn. When you activate the bow, a wounding rune appears, a glowing red eye opens in its center, bony spikes sprout through the wood, and a mouth with sharp teeth bites your hand. For as long as the bow is awakened you become drained 1. The wounding rune coats all arrows with cursed blood, causing an extra 1d6 persistent bleed damage.
Marked Prey. While the bow remains awakened, you gain a +5 circumstance bonus to Track a creature that has taken damage from one of its cursed arrows. In addition, when you attack creatures that are under this effect, you can make two Strikes with a –2 penalty. Both attacks count toward your multiple attack penalty, but the penalty doesn’t increase until after you’ve made both of them.
While awakened, the bow communicates with you telepathically, always pleading for blood.
