Equipment

All Blind Archers come into creation with their own personal bow of Malfean Iron in their hands. This bow is of perfect quality, but anyone who uses the bow without the Blind Archer's permission receives a -2 external penalty on all rolls with the bow. The bow is considered to belong to the Blind Archer until the archer is either dead or surrenders his bow.

Description

These First Circle demons were created out of Tenglann's need of someone to use and spread the use of his creations. For this he created whole races of lesser demons dedicated to a single weapon. Among the most successful are the Ingensyn, or the Blind Archers or Blind Hunters as they are sometimes called. Recognizing the bow as a hunter's weapon as much as a soldier's they developed an affinity for stealth and survival to fully utilise the bows' capabilities and became adept hunting demons.
Obscurity 1/3
Blind Archers are often summoned by sorcerers who need hunters, archers or bodyguards. They are also sometimes summoned to teach militia or other military units archery, something the Blind Archers gladly oblige to. A Blind Archer can enter creation when an archer wishing to become better hits his target straight on with his eyes closed.
