R Gothic Bow of the Elemental Whispers
Weapon: Longbow, Magical
Rarity: Rare (requires attunement)

Martial weapon, ranged weapon, 2lb
1d8 piercing – Ammunition (150/600 ft.), Heavy, Two-Handed

Description:
This bow, carved from deep mahogany, carries traces of silver designs that twinkle subtly when caught in the right Light. Accompanying the bow is a quiver fashioned from dark leather, embossed lightly with faded silver patterns reminiscent of the bow. Within the quiver lie three semi-translucent gems that hint at elemental powers contained within.

Said to be a precursor or perhaps a sibling to the “Gothic Bow of the Elemental Nexus”, this bow was crafted by an elven artificer who was still honing their skills in elemental magic. While not as potent as its legendary counterpart, the whispers of the elements can still be heard by those attuned to this unique bow.

Gems:

1. Ruby Shard: A fractured gem that warms upon touch. It whispers tales of embers and flame.
2. Sapphire Fragment: A cool, smooth sliver of a gem that carries the essence of a chilled breeze.
3. Topaz Sliver: A jagged piece that hums with a subtle, electrifying pulse.

Abilities:

1. Elemental Whisper: As a bonus action, the wielder can touch one of the gems before drawing an arrow, allowing it to briefly carry the gem’s element. The next arrow shot from the bow deals an extra 1d4 damage of that element ( fire, cold, or lightning). This effect lasts until an arrow is shot or for 1 minute.
2. Elemental Harmony: If the wielder hits a single target with all three elemental arrows within a duration of 10 minutes, the arrows resonate in harmony. The target suffers an additional 1d6 force damage as the energies combine and clash.
3. Elemental Challenge: Once per long rest, the wielder can challenge the energies of the bow. They can decide to imbue two arrows with different elements and shoot them simultaneously at two different targets. If both arrows hit, each target suffers 1d4 of the respective elemental damage and is affected by a condition for one round:
   • Fire: Target is set on fire, taking an additional 1d4 fire damage at the start of its next turn.
   • Ice: Target’s movement speed is halved for 2 rounds. While the target’s speed is halved, it takes a −2 penalty to AC and Dexterity saving throws.
   • Lightning: Target cannot take reactions and flammable objects in the area that aren’t being worn or carried burst into flames in a 10ft radius. Those directly aside from burning objects suffer 2d6 fire damage on a failed save.

Drawback:
Elemental Fatigue: After using the Elemental Harmony ability, the gems seem to lose their luster. The Elemental Whisper ability cannot be used again until after a short or long rest.

V Gothic Bow of the Elemental Nexus
Weapon: Longbow, Magical
Rarity: Very rare (requires attunement)

Martial weapon, ranged weapon, 2lb
1d8 piercing – Ammunition (150/600 ft.), Heavy, Two-Handed

Description:
This bow, carved from ebony, is intertwined with intricate silver designs that glow faintly in dim Light. The quiver accompanying this weapon is made of black leather, adorned with silver patterns matching the bow. Three prominent sockets in the quiver house enchanted gems, each pulsating with raw elemental power.

Gems:

1. Ruby of Fiery Conduit (Red Gem): Imbues arrows with the essence of fire, causing them to ignite upon release.
2. Sapphire of Frozen Eternity (Blue Gem): Channels the cold of the Arctic, sheathing arrows in a layer of frost.
3. Topaz of Storm’s Wrath (Yellow Gem): Saturates arrows with lightenning energy, making them crackle and spark.

Abilities:

1. Elemental Imbue: As a bonus action, the wielder can touch one of the gems and draw an arrow, imbuing it with the gem’s element. The next arrow shot from the bow deals an extra 1d6 damage of that element ( fire, cold, or lightning). This effect lasts for 1 minute or until an arrow is shot.
2. Nexus Synergy: If the wielder successfully hits a target with all three elemental arrows within a span of 10 minutes, the target suffers a Nexus Burst. The energies react with each other, dealing an additional 2d6 force damage.
3. Elemental Overflow: Once per long rest, as an action, the wielder can channel a maximum of three gems simultaneously, enveloping the bow in a whirlwind of elemental energies. Roll 1d4 to determine the number of gems you channel. Numbers 1 to 3 represent the number of channeled gems, while number 4 causes 1d6 damage from the draw string to the user. Each arrow respectively adds an extra 1d6 fire, 1d6 cold, and 1d6 lightning damage.

Drawback:
Elemental Backlash: Using the Elemental Overflow ability exhausts the power of the gems. After using this ability, the Elemental Imbue cannot be used again until after a long rest.

It’s believed only a being with an unyielding spirit and will can harness its raw power without being consumed. The bow’s legends stretch back eons, with tales of it turning the tide in apocalyptic battles, reshaping landscapes, and even once piercing the veil between realms.

Fashioned from the heartwood of an ancient World Tree and adorned with shimmering ethereal runes, this bow radiates an aura of controlled elemental chaos. The quiver, crafted from the shadows of primordial beasts, is inlaid with gleaming patterns that mirror the constellations. Four iridescent gems, each holding a roaring elemental tempest within, are securely embedded in the quiver.

4. Stalwart Stone Emerald: Grounding and unyielding, it represents the unwavering strength of the Elemental Plane of Earth.

Abilities:

1. Elemental Fury: As a bonus action, the wielder touches one of the gems to imbue their next shot. The arrow, when released, deals an extra 2d6 damage of the chosen element and carries a secondary effect:
   • Fire: Ignites the target, dealing 1d6 fire damage at the start of its next two turns.
   • Ice: Freezes the target’s feet, reducing its movement speed by half for its next turn.
   • Lightning: Overcharges the target’s muscles, causing it to lose its next bonus action.
   • Earth: The ground beneath the target becomes difficult terrain in a 10-foot radius for 1 minute.
2. Elemental Resonance: If the wielder hits a single target with arrows imbued by all four elements within a duration of 10 minutes, the target is enveloped by an Elemental Vortex, suffering 4d6 force damage and being Stunned until the end of its next turn.
3. Maelstrom Release: Once per long rest, as an action, the wielder can unleash the full maelstrom of elemental energy contained within the bow. The next shot becomes an Elemental Nova, combining all elements. This arrow deals 2d6 fire, 2d6 cold, 2d6 lightning, and 2d6 bludgeoning damage. The target and all creatures within 10 feet of it must make a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw or be knocked Prone.

Drawback:
Elemental Overload: After using Maelstrom Release, the elemental gems become momentarily dim. The Elemental Fury ability cannot be used again until after a long rest.
