French Bow

300 OM - Requires: Ranged Proficiency

Another one of Gaston's favoured weapons. This is a wooden bow measuring about one metre in length, with a cloth where one would place their hand, paired with a leather quiver on his back. The bow can shoot arrows at a rate of one per second, including time taken to draw an arrow. Before using, however, Gaston must take the bow off of his back, taking about three seconds. His quiver holds fifty arrows, and when they are gone (or he just wants to) Gaston can summon more at a rate of one every two seconds, though his stored arrows may not exceed fifty. The arrows travel at a rate of sixty-nine metres per second and are rather damaging, able to go several centimetres into wood and easily pierce flesh. The bow is mildly taxing to use, and is effective for up to twenty-five metres, though after that accuracy starts to dip off.
