Crafted by Artemis after her brothers death, this magical bow contains the remnants of the soul of the Human god of Archery, music, and the sun, Apollo.
You gain a +3 to attack and damage rolls made using this magic weapon.
Illuminating. When you draw back the string on Arcus Lux, a bright arrow made of light materializes on the string, scintillating with golden glitter like a potion. When you hit a creature with one of these light arrows, it deals an extra 3d4 radiant damage and sticks into the body of the creature. You can have a maximum of 3 of these arrows stuck at a time, but they need not be on the same creature. While an arrow is stuck into a creature, it shines bright light out to a range of 10 feet, and dim light for another 10 feet. Any invisible creature within this bright light is made visible. A Dispel Magic spell cast on a creature stuck with arrows will remove any light arrows stuck in the creature.
While an arrow is stuck into a creature, you may detonate it as a bonus action on your turn, forcing the creature to make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be blinded until the start of your next turn and take 2d6 radiant damage.
Sentience. Arcus Lux is a sentient, chaotic good longbow with an Intelligence of 17, a Wisdom of 9, and a Charisma of 21. It has hearing and darkvision out to a range of 120 feet, and truesight to a range of 30 feet. It can speak, read, and understand Common and Celestial. Arcus Lux has a good natured personality, and is very single-minded and headstrong, but doesn't complain when the wielder doesn't follow its advice. It compliments its wielder when they manage to hit a difficult shot, and gives (sometimes misplaced) advice when it feels it should, regardless of if it was asked.
Proficiency with a Longbow allows you to add your proficiency bonus to the attack roll for any attack you make with it.
