Regarding the Inquiries Why Aoth Carries Two Bows
Aoth was a mounted scout for a merchant caravan, and as he is mounted almost all day he requires the use of a bow. Shortbows are the only bows that can be used from horseback. Longbows have more punch, however, so he carries one of those as well. This extra punch comes in handy when he is on the ground. Mobility from atop his horse, power when grounded.
Which reminds me, Van, I forgot to give him the ride skill. Can I tweak his skills a little before the game?
