by Michael Lejeune

Gold: priceless
XP: 2000
Appearance:
Green elf constructed bow. Oak shaft with sparkly green
leaf décor.
Long bow +2
In hands of true
elf:
Able to hide among elf's clothing -
subtract 2 on initiative. Very robust, doesn't burn by normal fire. Shoots at
normal firing rate under water. Causes double damage when firing arrows made by
a green elf.
History: This bow
is reported to have existed in the time of the great war in Myth Drannor.
Although none can name its creator, many have speculated that Montuvion
Lyshethyl was responsible. Lyshethyl was the chief wizard in Semberwood during
the invasion of that city. It was once reported that the bow had actually turned
into a delicate elven maid while its possessor was in heated battle with an orc
tribe. The maiden held onto the owner and teleported him to safety. The truth of
such a statement is much debated among elven scholars.

head on the pommel. Believed to be Suzailian.

History:
This sword has been mentioned among the pages of the best
librams in Candlekeep that regard weapons of evil intent. Although not the most
powerful of dragon-posessed swords, it does have unquestionable potential for
destruction. It is currently within the humble hands of Gluimern, a 7th level
wizard with a sho in Raven's Bluff called "The Smiling Tooth".The adventurer
Mooranthor, 5th level fighter/dwarf claimed it from the wizard Zabobin the
battle of Valen Blood. If any information is to be gathered about it, he would
be the one to contact. His wereabouts are unknown at the time of this scripting.

History:
Some have come through Arabel with great intentions, and
some have simply passed through. One such adventurer with the boldest intentions
(cleaning the city of wizardous scum) was Daether von Beine. It was his daring
feats that got him recognized in the first place. But it was this wand that one
him respect. The method of creation is unknown, and the creator is thought to
reside among the hills in Rawlinswood. Daether had plans of destruction and was
eventually put asunder by the "Luminescent Warriors" of Arabel, so the history
of the wand was not discovered. All that the bards sing of, are the exploits of
one Daether von Beine, and his plunge into greedy dissolve.
