Shivering Arrow

"I found a lanky and rather weathered knight who was a master of this style and followed him for several days on his journey. We soon reached a kingdom in terrible repair, passing many burned out houses and hovels. My companion informed me it was ruled by a tyrant, and said he had decided it was right and proper to slay this man.

After several days travel we found ourselves atop a great mountain surveying the kingdom. Here the knight spent the following several hours pacing the peak, testing the air, amd meditating. Following this he drew his bow with great effort and a single, javelin sized arrow - letting loose with a rush of wind that nearly sent me off the cliffside.

Upon my return to the kingdom I found it in a state of mania. The tyrant had been decapitated, his head shot clean off from within his seemingly impenetrable fortress by a monstrously oversized arrow.

It had been shot about fifteen miles."

Fighters who practice the Shivering Arrow technique follow teachings of clarity and precision. To them, the brutal and energized fighting styles of other warriors are a result of spiritual failing - and a single decided shot can be more effective than a hundred rash blows.
