I know you all love contributing to this game.  What I am looking for is a few new bow designs.  It can be for any level.  Please use the standard item design system.  Use proper grammar on descriptions or your item will not be considered.

Imp Spine Bow:
 
 A brittle beige series of vertebrae threaded onto a fine but sturdy branch of carved oak, the bow is fashioned from the spine of a slain Imp that is said to inhabit the forests north of Nightmist. Whilst not a particularly fiercesome or efficient weapon, it serves it's purpose as a reliable and relatively accessable initial bow for novice rangers.
 
Dropped by: Skeletal Imp
Drop %: 50
Base Damage: 4
Sold at: None - Drop only.
Magical: Yes
 
(This weapon is designed to be used in place of the Oak Staff for Rangers)
 
Modify: Added status 'Magical' because the Skeletal Imps are magical enemies, even though the fact the item is magical ultimately makes no difference.

The bow of the Dragon Whisker was great. But, how can you shoot an arrow from the Rune Bow and recieve life from it...? Undecided

How can you cast fireballs? Heal people using magic? Go invisible and cast other spells? Because its not reality. Having a bow that can drain isn't that much of a problem, but I don't agree with it anyway (I wouldn't mind seeing more bows at mid level)

Try to think of some shop-based bows.  I do agree that those are good designs and descriptons on the above bows and could be considered.

Library info for Bow of Venom:
Base damage: 10, Can be used by: rangers, Description: This is a simple long bow with green arrows dipped in poison. Though the bite of the arrow isn't much, it can drain a mighty foe with its deadly venom., Level needed to equip it: 15, Magical: No, Vamparic: No, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0.20 (20%), Poison/30s damage: 0.3, Monster damage table: , Mana leech: .
 
Not exactly sure how the poison table is suppose to look, but that is 20% chance to poison doing about 8-10 points of damage per poison pulse.
 
I made this because I would like to see poison used more often.  Only thing I can think of off the top of my head is the Hydra Thorn... and that doesn't even have a complete library intro.
 
Note: Not sure if this would be too unique to be a shop item, but I tried to make it weak enough to be one.
