Bow Abilities:
seeker- When Black Shadow uses the Red string of his Bladesinger Bow, once per thread he may fire upon a specific NON-Lethal spot on the target's body. The arrow will then seek out and hit the target in that area. If the target is behind cover the arrow will not change its path quick enough to hit the targeted area.
Shockwave - Twice per thread Black shadow can pull, the yellow string of his bow which causes a showckwave to travel along the surface. It he fires against the wall, the shockwave will travel up and down the wall in ten feet all directions. If it hits a person, the shockwave will be concentrated to just their body, giving a chance of stagering or even knocked back the person.
Sonic Boom - once per thread, Black Shadow can pull the white string of his bow, allowing the arrow to travel at a speed so fast it breaks the sound barrier and causes a sonic boom.
Equipment: A yew bow with steel tipped arrows, the shaft of the arrows are hollow steel giving him the ability to use them as close range weapons without them breaking.
A steel sword with "Courage" carved in the elvish tongue of Raiaera.
The Blue Robin: A small metal robin, expertly painted to resemble the real thing. It can sing, fly around and generally be awesome. It can be used as a distraction through a psycho-kinetic link with the owner that allows he or she to control where it flies. It also contains as small amount of gunpowder, which can detonate in a flash of light, and burning anything it was touching. It is enchanted to recombine overnight. Won ~HERE~
BladeSinger Bow - as requested by the admins, this bow should be defined as being "better than 'The highest tier of wood.'" It is a longbow, made with high quality, using the top teir of wood - Liviol Nihon Redwood." This is not the average bow, as it cannot be bought by conventional methods and has to be quested for. The crafting of a bladesinger bow is difficult and somewhat a lost art. Due to Black Shadow's exceptional precision and skill with bow and arrow, any encounter with him would most likely be deadly with this weapon, as Black Shadow rarely misses. Due to the power of the bow it is near impossible to dodge the arrow, unless power gaming occurs on the opponent's part, or the opponent basically has the sufficient speed to dodge a bullet.
The Demon Lord Arrow - "...arrow tip strength equivalency of Adamantine; returns to Black Shadow after being shot and is away from him for over 5 minutes. Flies through the air and stops 2 feet away from him, suspended in midair. Cannot hurt anybody when returning to Black Shadow. Cannot hurt anybody when suspended in midair. Must be placed in quiver for 2 minutes before it can be shot again."
ten Black Diamond tipped arrows.
