This shortbow is a masterwork of artificer engineering, crafted from alchemically treated darkwood reinforced with infernal steel components. The bow's mechanical limbs are adorned with precision-crafted gears and crystalline focusing lenses that glow with contained hellfire. Etched copper conduits run along the grip, channeling arcane energy through a series of miniature infernal engines. The bowstring appears to be woven from devil's silk threads interlaced with fine mithril wire.

Magic Weapon. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this weapon.

Silent Mechanism. This bow's advanced dampening systems make all shots completely silent. Additionally, when you make a ranged attack with this weapon while hidden, you have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to remain hidden.

Infernal Resonator. This weapon contains 3 energy cells that recharge daily at dawn. As a bonus action, you can expend 1 energy cell to activate the bow's infernal resonator for your next attack. On a hit, the attack deals an extra 2d8 necrotic damage as hellish energy courses through the target, and the target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw (DC 15) or have their vocal cords temporarily paralyzed by infernal magic until the start of your next turn. A creature that can't speak can't cast spells that have a verbal component.

Phasing Projectile System. As an action, you can activate the bow's dimensional phase array to fire a projectile that exists partially in multiple planes. Choose a target you can see within the weapon's normal range. The target must make a Dexterity saving throw (DC 15). On a failed save, the target takes 6d10 fire damage as the projectile materializes inside them in a burst of hellfire. On a successful save, it takes half as much damage. This attack ignores cover and can target invisible creatures (though you must still know their location).
