arrow
When this spell is
cast upon
an arrow, the missile
gains a special dweomer that changes
the arrow into a
hunting
hawk as the arrow leaves the bow.
The hunting hawk:
AC 6; Move 33“; HD 1; hp 6; #AT 3;
Dmg 1-2/1-2/1 THACO
19; AL N.
The hawk’s first strike
is a swooping attack, striking at +2
bonus to hit with
its claw attacks doing double damage, but
no beak attack is
allowed. Thereafter, the hawk will continue
to attack opponents
as the caster orders, for one
round per level of
experience of the caster, or until the
hawk is destroyed.
If a magic arrow has hunting hawk cast
upon it, then the
hawk retains whatever magical bonuses
the arrow had, including
attack or damage bonuses, so a
hawk formed from
an arrow +2 will also be +2 on all
attack and damage
rolls. An arrow of slaying cannot be
affected by the spell.
When the spell’s duration ends, the
affected arrow disappears
permanently.
MC: A wing feather.
