An arrow is a projectile for use with the bow. The character must wield a bow, load the arrows in his/her quiver and fire in order for maximum power. Arrows may be wielded or thrown, but this greatly reduced their effectiveness. It should be noted that crossbow bolts should be fired with a crossbow.
It is easy to obtain a large supply of arrows by untraping an arrow trap.
