Berserker's Soft Wood Longbow

Berserker's Soft Wood Longbow sits in the lamplight, a slender arc of honeyed grain and quiet resilience. The soft wood—the kind that remembers every season—is smooth to the touch, with a warmth that betrays its age and the forest it came from. Its limbs curve with a natural ease, as if the tree spoke through the bow when the string was drawn taut. A thin lacquer coats the surface, catching the room’s glow and throwing back a subtle, almost living shimmer. The fittings at each tip are simple brass, etched with a quiet, bear-crest motif that hints at a lineage of-frontier hunters who trusted their luck as much as they trusted their hands. The grip is wrapped in leather that's soft to the palm and worn just enough to tell stories of traveled camps and long nights spent waiting for the perfect line of sight. When you nock an arrow, the bow seems to settle into your shoulder like a companion—not a tool you wield, but a partner that remembers your aim. Lore fans whisper that this particular bow was born from a workshop on a borderland road, where traders traded more than goods and soldiers traded scars. Carved from a forgiving softwood favored by those who must bend without breaking, it earned the Berserker’s name not from heraldry but from the way it invites a player into a fierce cadence of strikes. The weapon is said to respond best when a hunter leans into tempo—shots that chain into critical ruptures, bursts of precision that feel almost like a vow kept with every release. In the field, skirmishers who favor control and speed appreciate its light weight and springy snap, which let them dance between cover and open sky, firing with a rhythm that makes the battlefield seem almost choreographed by fate. In practical terms, the Berserker's Soft Wood Longbow is a tool for those who count on quick, clean shots to pile up damage in short windows. Its forgiving sting and balanced draw make it a reliable choice for harried marksmen who have to alternate between scouting, lining up killshots, and retreating through gaps in the melee. The texture of the grip and the bow’s lightweight profile invite rapid re-holds and fast follow-ups, enabling a playstyle that rewards bold positioning and clean, crit-driven bursts. It’s not a weapon for grinding through armor with brute force; it’s a partner for those who read the ground, time their bursts, and let a sharp, well-timed arrow do the talking. Market stories echo through the stalls of the realm as surely as birdsong. In the bustle of Saddlebag Exchange, a longbow like this finds its price wander between desire and reality, landing in the pockets of buyers who understand its tempo. A player might haggle over a few silver on a quiet morning, or push toward a gold or two if the roll carries with it a premium Ferocity or Precision stat. The exchange is a living thing—ratings, whispers, and a clerk’s careful tally all lending texture to the day’s value. And so the Berserker’s Soft Wood Longbow travels with its owner, a quiet, loyal instrument that turns every dawn into a campaign and every field into a stage where the archer’s will meets the world’s answer in a single, decisive release.
