copper-banded maple longbow with a braided spidersilk bowstring
Look: Deep brown maple has been lightly oiled to a sheen that emphasizes the dense grain of the wood. Thin copper bands are wrapped securely around the longbow from tip to tip, lightly reinforcing the weapon without compromising its flex or accuracy. Slender strands of spidersilk have been tightly braided to create an elegant yet durable bowstring.

Verbs

  • STUDY: Thinking about the maple longbow, you think you could LEAN, POKE, PULL, and RUB it.
  • LEAN: You lean on your longbow, thinking about your recent success in the field. While you're thinking of it, you carefully inspect the limbs of your bow for cracks.
  • POKE: You grab the bowstring of your longbow and pull it back to full draw. Taking aim at a nearby target you release it with a loud *snap*!
  • PULL: You grab the bowstring of your longbow and give it an experimental pull.
Utterly unsatisfied, you tighten the string at each nock until the draw is correct.
  • RUB: You grab a cloth and buff the limbs of your bow until they gleam.
