Giant's Bane (longbow +2) (R)	Rare	CCC-GHC-09 Swamp of Death			true
Giant's Bane (longbow +2) Weapon (longbow), rare You gain a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magical longbow. The bow also has the Sentinel minor property and glows faintly when giants are within 120 feet of it. For this weapon, "giant" refers to any creature with the giant type, including ogres and trolls. This stout recurved bow is fashioned from the horn of a great beast and ringed in complex sigils at either end. (Plus much history!) GIANT'S BANE HISTORY In 1325 DR the ranger Kaylin Plainstalker patrolled a vast area between the Giant’s Run Mountains and Elversult. Of half-elven heritage, the woman was a beauty, as well as an expert shot with her bow. Her attractiveness and her prowess at stopping marauding bands of hill giants soon caught the eye of Rilar Biltmoor, a rakish young wool merchant from Elversult. To gain her favor, the young man paid a wizard from Westgate to craft her a magical bow made of yew. Kaylin accepted the weapon, but rebuffed the merchant’s romantic interests. Several years later, Rilar’s business failed, and he lost everything. He returned to his family farm on the outskirts of Elversult. Instead of organizing large shipments of wool to Westgate and Iriaebor, he spent his days tending sheep in the foothills of the Giant’s Run Mountains. When Kaylin learned of the man’s troubles, she visited and offered to return the weapon he had given to her, hoping she could ease his financial burdens. Rilar declined the bow, claiming he had found a peace and contentment as a sheep header that he had not known as a merchant. His honesty and newfound humility touched the ranger, and over time, she grew to love the man she had rejected years earlier. They eventually married and started a family of their own. The bow remained in Kaylin’s possession until she died peacefully in her sleep at her family’s farm. When thunder booms and the birds have flown, They come from the hills to leave you as bones. They burn, kill, and loot and delight in it all, And none can stop them, because they're so tall. But with a pull of the string, it delivers such pain. They hoot and they holler and cry "Giant's Bane!" They run for the hills and never look back, To afraid to return for another attack!
