The Judge

The Judge

Weapon (longbow), legendary (requires attunement)

The surface of this longbow is etched with markings in an ancient Hebrew dialect. A character that can read Hebrew knows that these are the names of famous judges from the early days of Israel in Canaan. Among these names are Deborah, Gideon, and Samson.

According to legend, this bow miraculously presents itself to a Judge in times of great need. Any person chosen by God for a mission of great importance may wield The Judge, gaining the following benefits:

  • Your Dexterity score increases by 2, as does your maximum for that score.
  • You gain a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this weapon.
  • The Judge has 3 charges. As a bonus action you may expend a charge to cause the next arrow you fire to burst into flame on impact. A target hit by this arrow takes an additional 4d6 fire damage. All charges are regained the following day at dawn.

Bible5e custom item. Its specific properties supplement the standard magic item rules.
