Artemis's blessing

1
This Artifact grants you supernatural skill with Shortbows.
Used by Louis Dupont, Created by leonvanderblight.
On Legendary Artifact Hunter's Pendant.
( You must wear or wield this Artifact plainly to receive these benefits.)

It turns out that in honoring his kills, and in ensuring that every part of them is put to use that Louis has gained the attention of some people who are interested in ensuring that his bowmanship reaches peaks suitable for hunting his new favored prey. The pendant in question one found within his home on returning from a job involving hunting snakes, though Louis was unawares of the mythological connection he was still glad of the boon when he found that it solved the rather irritating problem of being out shot by a brony mid mission.

You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact and engaged in combat with Shortbows.

Your attacks with Shortbows have their base Difficulty set to 6, are no longer limited by your Brawn, and deal +3 Bonus Damage. Armor is fully effective against this damage. Reloading is considered a Free Action.
