Skills sound good, environment is good. Let's let the Court be 4d8.
Maybe triple standard should be beyond the included equipment, since she's the faerie queen after all. (Well, a lot might be in a vault or something.) Or I could just do double plus equipment. I know that might seem odd, but it just seems tricky today to have to subtract out that stuff for some reason.

I see them on the Hunting Chanel. They have counter balances also. I will look them up on the web and see what I find.
Wiki: Compound bow (1/4)
The compound bow is a contemporary bow that requires less force at full draw than other more traditional bows.
The compound bow can transfer more energy more efficiently to the arrow due to its rigidity, stability, and consistency. Since the limbs are stiffer, the bow would almost be impossible to draw back without the assistance of the cams (also known as wheels and pulleys). The existence of cams within a mechanical leverage system is the major difference between the compound bow and a traditional bow. The compound bow has the string attached to the cams, and there are cables attached to both the cams and the limbs. When the archer draws back the string, the cams turn causing the cables to pull the limbs closer together and store more energy. Cam assistance in the pulling of the limbs allows the archer to pull back much more weight; this process is known as let off. Let off reduces the draw weight by 60 to 70 percent during the second half of the draw back cycle, and an archer then holds less weight at full draw than when he started pulling back.

Or would this be something from a tinkering gnome?

Ahhh...OK, I see what you're talking about now. I thought you meant a magic item.
Yeah, let's not use that level of technology here. If we really need to boost her ranged damage output, I'd prefer adding an energy damage property like shocking burst to the bow. I'm not sure she needs it, though, since she's primarily a spellcaster.

I think the gnomish steam bow (from Arms and Equipment Guide) is similar to what you're talking about.
