The bodies of master archers are sought after by powerful necromancers, who work unspeakable magic to transform them into banebows; wicked undead driven by hatred for life. Uncaring of their purpose or who their enemies may be, banebows obey their master's every command. They are cruel assassins and snipers, killing their enemies from incredible distances. Soul Shooters. A banebow's aim with any ranged weapon is deadly, though they prefer to wield bows. Indeed, the ritual that creates a banebow first requires the creation of a bow for the future undead to wield. No ordinary bow will suffice for this purpose, only one crafted from bone and imbued with the souls of the innocent. The banebow's arrows are made from the bones of their enemies and burn with unholy fire once loosed. Undead Nature. A banebow doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep. |
