Name: Calliope (Callie) Willow Archer
Age: 26
Class: Ranger
Race: Gnome
Level: Bronze Tier
Gender: Female
EQUIPMENT
ITEM: NATURE BLESSED HEARTWOOD BOW (weapon)
MATERIAL: Everliving Dryadic Heartwood
INHERENT EFFECTS: Any arrow shot from this bow is Nature Blessed and able to affect targets that may ignore normal, non-magical arrows. Targets containing Nether energy take extra damage from this blessing when struck. Will grow a Heartwood Tree seedling that can be removed and planted, which takes approximately 250 days. If a seedling leaf is ingested, it will restore health, mana and stamina, as well as provide enough nourishment for a normal-sized person for one day. This effect is independent of potion and Healing Berry cooldowns. The leaf will regrow in about one day.
RUNE: Increase effective range
RUNE: Increase effective range (Diminishing Returns)
RUNE: Reduce casting time of bow skills
RUNE: Increase mana efficiency (ie, reduce mana cost) of bow skills
RUNE: Reinforce bow strength and flexibility
RUNE: Reduce recharge time of bow skills. The inscribed item must be touching the recipient to receive this effect. Not effective in magically null areas.
ENCHANTMENT: Summon Arrow - Summon an arrow when the bowstring is pulled. Summoned arrow has a lifespan of approximately ten seconds after release. Holds approximately one-hundred arrow charges and recharges at a rate of fifteen per minute. Touching the bow’s thumb indentation at time of draw will suppress arrow formation, using up a suppression charge. Maximum of five suppression charges with a three minute recharge time.
ENCHANTMENT: Self Repair - The bow will magically repair any damage it may sustain, or regrow lost pieces, but must be supplied with mana to maintain the repair/regrowth process. Regrown bowstrings will need to be manually secured into place.
ENCHANTMENT: Recall Weapon - Telekinetically summon the enchanted weapon into the attuned wielder’s hands. Maximum range of approximately thirty meters.
ENCHANTMENT: Magical Storage - Magically store the attuned bow into an attuned stone touching the wielder’s body. The stored bow may be recalled at any time. Recalled bow is not considered a summoned item. Only the attuned wielder may store/recall the bow. Each action uses one charge, and the stone has three charges, with a recharge rate of approximately one hour.
TALISMAN (x2): Store one charge of any Silver Tier or lower weapon skill for later use for up to six hours. Requires a low amount of mana to initially store the charge. Normal mana is required to use this stored charge after it is reclaimed.
CARE REQUIREMENT: Must be provided water and sunlight at least once per week. If not cared for properly, the Self-Repair enchantment will go dormant, as will all Inherent Effects, causing the seedling to wither and die. Once provided water and sunlight, these effects return, and the seedling will begin to grow again.

TRAITS
RACIAL TRAIT: CHILDLIKE CHARM
DESCRIPTION: Gnomes emit a mild charm that affects individuals with nurturing tendencies, even if subconscious. Those affected may view the Gnome as a vulnerable child in need of help or protection, rather than a potential threat. However, this charm is only suggestive in nature and cannot coerce someone into doing something they are not inclined to do. As this trait operates as a suggestive charm, it will bypass most passive charm defenses. Beings who are Gnome-sized or smaller are immune to this charm.
RACIAL TRAIT: DARKVISION
MANA USAGE: MANA MUST BE PRESENT IN USER
DESCRIPTION: Provides the ability to see in the dark with a monochromatic, false-light vision. Effect may be activated or deactivated at will. Requires the presence of mana within the Gnome's body to function.
RACIAL TRAIT: MANA-ENHANCED HEARING
MANA USAGE: MANA MUST BE PRESENT IN USER
DESCRIPTION: Gnomes possess highly sensitive hearing, enabling them to detect even faint or far-off sounds with careful concentration. When underground, a Gnome can accurately discern the direction of sound regardless of any echoes present. Requires the presence of mana within the Gnome's body to function.
RACIAL TRAIT: RESIST FEAR
MANA USAGE: SPECIAL
CASTING TIME: NONE
RECHARGE TIME: 10 MINUTES
DESCRIPTION: Gnomes possess a natural resistance towards situations and influences that evoke fear. If they happen to be affected by an active Fear effect, they may choose to spend mana in an attempt to fend it off. The amount of mana required for this depends on the intensity of the effect. This trait is ineffective against self-generated emotional fear-effects.
RACIAL TRAIT: TINKER
DESCRIPTION: Gnomes have an inherent mental ability to design, engineer and create strange new ideas, contraptions, weapons, machines and projects. Will synergize with related perks, skills and traits to expand the knowledge base that may be utilized by this trait.
SYNERGIZED PERKS: Advanced Archery, Basic Carpentry, Basic Plumbing, Basic Electrical, Bookkeeping/Logistics, Bowyer/Fletcher
SYNERGIZED TRAITS: Underground Sense
RACIAL TRAIT: UNDERGROUND SENSE
DESCRIPTION: Like Dwarves, Gnomes have a natural affinity for underground environs. They can sense direction and grade of underground passages, and will seldom get lost. They can easily discern the stability of ceilings or floors, and how to remove rock and earth without causing collapse, etc. They possess knowledge of essential underground survival skills. Provides a premonition-like danger sense in underground areas giving the Gnome up to thirty seconds warning, as well as the general direction of the danger. This danger sense does not function during combat or other periods of high activity or stress. This trait synergizes with the TINKER trait in the exploration of trait-related projects.
