Silver-Lined Shooter

The Silver-Lined Shooter is a special weapon feature in The Archaia Chronicles. It was introduced in the The Mask of Na'maer and is wielded by Capalis Marebun. This weapon is an enchanted wooden bow that can shoot special arrows that come back to the user upon accurately hitting a target.

The Silver-Lined Shooter is an heirloom of the Marebun family. It has been passed down 3 successive generations before Tomen Marebun retired it. How it became enchanted remains a mystery. A family tale has is that the soul of a pixie sprite lives within wooden finishing of the bow.

When Tomen disappeared, his son Capalis took the bow and became its new wielder. Since then, he's used it on mercenary hunts. And still, its arrows stay loyal to the wielder.

Schematic
The bow stands at around 2 '9'' when put upright. Its wooden frame is capped with silver (with ornate designs carved in) at the ends of the bow and near the arrow rest towards the recurves. This combination of materials allows the user a high mobility and effective handling without sacrificing stability.

The arrow rest and gripping is made of a silver alloy etched to fit comfortably in the palm, especially under pressure. It is near impossible to snap it or bent it out of shape, thanks to the care given to it by its past wielders. Similarly, the Cinnisilk bowstring is shred-proof, allowing users to draw it quite far for more penetrative shots.

Any arrow can be used as ammunition, and up to three can be shot at one time. Interestingly, once a new arrow is fired and accurately takes down a target, it becomes bounded to the Silver-Lined Shooter. When its bonded, it becomes an indestructible projectile until the bond is broken. This happens when the arrow misses the target.

Trivia

 * The grip of the bow has a set of five initials carved into it, each one signifying the Marebun whose has wielded it. They read VM, AM, MM, TM, and CM.
 * The ending silver caps of the bow were sharpened by Capalis as an emergency secret weapon.
 * When the arrows fly back to the bow, a faint noise that sounds like a fairy singing in reverse can be heard.
 * It has a sweet smell according to Darien, like cinnamon or autumn woods. This is due to the string being made of Cinnisilk.
