Rainward Bow

Article written by Uziel


A Rainward Bow is a crafted longbow that is used predominantly by the soldiers of the various kingdoms of the Rainward Isles. The length of the bow is longer on the top than the bottom, so an archer can comfortably shoot whilst kneeling. The bowstring was taut and the wood was strong, making the bow less likely to break and harder to pull.
