Archer's Bracers

Archer's Bracers are accessories focused on physical attacks with bows. They may bear an archery teacher's emblem or be a prized competition reward. Their story fits a hero who has spent a long time practicing archery, but their specific rules effect is not determined by trophies or memories of a former owner.

They suit a bow user who wants to increase the final attack without changing the underlying weapon. The bonus is added directly after calculating its base value. The condition applies to bows and cannot automatically be extended to every ranged or thrown weapon. The bracers themselves do not replace ammunition, a suitable distance, or the other rules for the particular attack.

It uses the "Hands" slot and the base item is "bracers". The listed bonus is +1 PATK with bows. It is added directly after calculating the bow's base value. Requirement: Use of a bow. Its catalog value is 18 gp. Follow the calculation and conditions of the bonus exactly; its origins in the story alone grant no additional abilities.
