Piercing
If the player slides a natural 20 while attacking with this weapon, the number of Melee attacks the monster it hit makes on its next turn is reduced by 1. E.g., 3 Melee attacks become 2, 2 Melee attacks become 1, and 1 Melee attack becomes no Melee attacks.
The monster’s ability to make Ranged attacks and/or cast spells is unaffected by Fang of Fenrir.
This small crossbow fires smaller bolts than normal crossbows and does not require the use of both hands to use.
Like all ranged weapons, it comes with an infinite supply of mundane ammunition. If the player wants to use specialized ammunition, the bolt token must specify “hand crossbow” as other bolts are too big to be fired from this weapon.
A heavy crossbow takes one combat round to load after being fired. Therefore, a player using any type of heavy crossbow (mundane, magical, Dwarven, etc.) will only be able to attack every other round. Even if a player has multiple heavy crossbow tokens, the cumbersome nature of this weapon–changing from heavy crossbow to heavy crossbow–will still incur a combat round penalty. Thus, carrying multiple heavy crossbows will have no net benefit (besides being realistically unfeasible).
non-magical weapon
Unlike a standard heavy crossbow, heavy repeating crossbows do not have the reload time penalty and can be fired every round.
The weapon deals an additional 5 Damage when it’s used to score a hit against Undead or Were-kind.
Like all +4 weapons, the DM adds +4 to the AC hit when using this weapon but the damage bonus has already been factored into the damage wheel.
This bow is permanently imbued with the ultra keen edge spell. This means that when used in combat, a critical hit can be scored if the player slides a natural 18, 19, or 20. This weapon is not subject to further effect from a keen edge spell.
