PRD B-01

Rumored Location: Found and Taken

Backstory

Sinnehliv-Gen Systems was hard on its luck. The other companies and higher races were pushing its healing and domestic drugs out of business faster then they could advance because of the Human-Favored bylaws instituted across the realm of Synchronus. Homey Salves and magically infused potions which cured ailments were their top sellers, but the introduction of a condensed drug into a pill form has made things far more portable and available it has ever been. While they would love to copy this tech and begin their own mass production of drugs-tradition within the race itself forbids machinery to do the work for them. It is here they came up with a new idea. The Prototype Regeneration Device B0-1, better known as PRD.

A basic recurve bow in design with a thickened steel alloy, it could be used with a skilled emergency worker to treat wounds on site without blowing their cover in dangerous scenarios. At first in development the standard recurve bow was used, the design was later changed to try and get a contract with the UEI to outfit the autonomous drones with the self-replicating liquid and capsule launchers when the drones detected a wounded or harmed individual. For testing purposes a single prototype bow was created with a minor, self-replicating version of the healing salve so they could test in controlled environments.

While the tests were a flying success, they found the bow a little medieval for the route they were going, and decided to commit to the up and coming autonomous drone projects that were rising in popularity for law enforcement. The bow was meant to be broken and disposed of due to the technology invented, but at the last minute a low-tech collector snatched it up, sensing the profit he could gain from doing so. While a search was conducted briefly, in the end the tech mattered little and was called off. The tech-collector eventually sold it at an auction to the highest bidder, and from there it changed hands many times for research and keepsake purposes, until it was flung into the veil when a mad scientist opened up a tear and sucked up his entire lab's contents-including himself into endless space during a failed portal test. Somehow ending up in the mortal realm, the bow now rests in an unknown location, waiting to be found once again...

Passive Effects

  • PRD comes built in with a Standard Issue Self-Defense Generator (SGD) Magical Shield. This shield covers the user from head to toe, and defends them from a single strike of any kind before shattering.
    • The bow cannot be used offensively in any way, and only functions if the vials themselves are drawn.
      • This recharges once every 3 emotes, but the bow must be wielded at all times during this recharge cycle, or the timer resets.
  • Other projectiles, including magical do not function when trying to be used by the bow.

Active Effects

  • Armed with a small bauble filled with a self replicating regenerative red fluid, the bow contains five recalling vials that get automatically refilled one at a time with the regenerating red fluid every 24 hours.
    • When launched at a person, the vial impacts into any non-metallic material, piercing skin, cloth, gambeson or otherwise and healing the person struck by one stage-barring fatal wounds.
      • It can also alternatively charge three vials into one shot, and can heal a person lethally wounded into a "stable" state.
  • This does not cause any form of healing debuffs.
