Item: Horselord's Longbow
These +1 striking longbows, usually decorated with intricate animal carvings and hawk feathers, are a favored weapon among the mounted warriors of the Shriikirri-Quah clan in north-central Varisia, although Shoanti travel widely enough that they find frequent use by cavalries of other nations and cultures as well. While you are mounted, Strikes with this bow gain a +2 circumstance bonus to damage against unmounted creatures who are smaller than your mount.
Critical Specialisation Effects
Certain effects can grant you benefits when you make a Strike with certain weapons and get a critical success. This is called a critical specialisation effect. The exact effect depends on which weapon group your weapon belongs to, as listed below. You can always decide not to add the critical specialisation effect of your weapon.
Bow: If the target of the critical hit is adjacent to a surface, it becomes stuck to that surface by the missile. The target is immobilized until it succeeds at an Interact action and a DC 10 Athletics check to pull the missile free. The target doesn't become stuck if it is incorporeal, liquid, or could otherwise escape without effort.
