Added character and background...
[sblock=Background] My first memory will always be of staring into the fire. When I was young, I was a shepherd. And I would sit staring into the flames as they danced and listen to the headsman tell of stories of our history, of great sorcerers, and of beasts so queer they could only be make believe. I saw all those stories come to life in the flames.
When I could hold a bow the headsman tried to train me to be a hunter, though I did not shot as true as some. But even so I could track and stalk, and when necessary scare the prey towards the true huntsmen. And still I would sit all night by the fire and watch as the flames showed me the stories coming to life.
On my name day the headsman called me to the fire alone and bid me to tell him what I saw in the flames. At first I could see nothing and I told him I only see the stories, that he must tell a tale for me to "see" it. Shaking his head he told me look deeper and not just with my eyes. I saw only one thing that night. A city on a river and a yellow stone that brought forth great despair, famine, and death. He told me that if I did not seek out the secrets of that vision then it would come to pass.
Now years after my name day, I am a neither shepherd nor hunter, I am a Seeker. And what I have searched for all these years is within my reach.[/sblock]
Question is a Thell longbow normal or are we to use the rules from the Conclave?
Thell Longbow
The Thell longbow is never sold to outsiders, only granted as a gift for great favors. Made from composite materials, it is the most powerful bow known on Conclave and requires a Strength bonus of at least +1 (Str 12 or more) to use. Mighty versions of this bow are also known, usually crafted for clan headmen and warriors. The cost of these are calculated normally, e.g. +100 gp (10,000 yen) per point of Strength bonus. A mighty (+1) Thell longbow, for example, would be worth 300 gp (30,000 yen) and cause 1d10+1 damage.
Code:
Cost Damage(M) Critical Range Weight Type
Thell Longbow 200 gp 1d10 19-20/x2 130 ft 4 lbs P
The Thell longbow is a martial ranged weapon that requires two hands to use, but can be used whilst mounted. Elite Thell warriors learn how to use it from the back of an eagle.
