so i made a self-insert character for thrilling intent as well, he’s an oddball mercenary from freearch with a cursed bow! it
turns every arrow to something random - sometimes it works out great,
and sometimes… not. he has the circle tattoo on the back of his neck for curse purposes.
he acquired a curse as you often do, asking the strange salesman for something powerful. something that can give him an edge. well, he DOES have a bow that can shoot fire and ice itself, but at a price. anything, he said, and the salesman pulled the bowstring out of his soul.
it was all luck from there on out. sometimes his arrows would turn into
swords and spears, which he kept for emergencies - any other weapons
would slip out of his fingers or shatter in his hands. when he unstrings
the bow, he ties the bowstring around his wrist to keep safe.
