+=== Shortshot ===
+ SHORTSHOT/SSHOT <target>
+ SHORTSHOT/SSHOT GROUND
+This is a point blank shot that will strike any target in the room with
+the arrow you have selected from your quiver. Due to the close range,
+damage will be slightly reduced.
+This ability may be used, in conjunction with pitched arrows, to melt
+icewalls that block your path. It can also be used, in conjunction with
+incendiary arrows, to destroy stonewalls that block your path.
+Finally, pitched arrows fired at the ground will melt ice on the ground
+and set fire to the location, if the location is flammable.
+=== Razor ===
+This ability allows you to fashion the deadly razor arrows. The edge of
+this arrow tip causes your foe increased bleeding.
+=== Quickshot ===
+ QUICKSHOT/QSHOT <target> <dir>
+This type of skill allows you to shoot faster at a player, with slightly
+decreased accuracy and damage.
+=== Spiral ===
+You can fashion the spiral arrow with this skill. The spiral arrow
+inflicts increased damage on your target.
+=== Quiver ===
+You can fashion a quiver with this skill. The quiver is important in keeping your
+beloved arrows in a safe yet reachable position.

+enter the room with you.

+This deadly arrow will stick in your foe. They must PULL ARROW FROM BODY
+to remove them. It is said that if someone has been struck too many times,
+they will perish.
+=== Envenom ===
+ ENVENOM <amount> <arrow type> WITH <toxin>
+ SWITCH <type> <type>
+ INSPECT QUIVER
+You may cover the tips of arrows with a toxin if you have a vial of that toxin or
+have the appropriate skill.
+An example of switching would be SWITCH WOODEN ACONITE, SWITCH ACONITE, SWITCH WOODEN,
+ SWITCH ACONITE WOODEN, SWITCH METEOR, etc.

+The crossbow is more powerful, but less accurate, than the longbow.
+=== Targetshot ===
+ TARGETSHOT/TSHOT <target> <dir> <body part>
+This special bow shot will strike a body part, damaging it. Once a player has taken
+too much damage to that part, it will be broken.

+Increase the accuracy of your shooting.

+outdoors.

+The arrows can be lit, causing your enemy to burst into flames.
+=== Hornbows ===

+a crossbow, they are far more accurate.

+=== Strafe ===
+ STRAFE <dir>
+This attack will fire 5 arrows into an opposing room, randomly striking
+anyone there.
+=== Net ===
+This arrow has a thin net attached to it that will entangle your enemy.
+They must WRITHE to escape.
+=== Snipe ===
+ SNIPE <player> <direction>
+Using this ability, you can improve your accuracy at shooting. Use it instead of the
+SHOOT command.
+=== Overdraw ===
+ OVERDRAW
+This defense will cause you to overdraw your bow, increasing damage by
+%. Unfortunately, there is a chance your bow will break on every shot.
+=== Hookshot ===
+ HOOKSHOT/HSHOT <target> <dir> [toxin]
+ HOOKSHOT/HSHOT <target> SKIES [toxin]
+This bow attack must be done with a barbed arrow and you must have a rope in your
+inventory. If you strike your foe, you will pull them into the room with you,
+knocking them slightly off balance.
+This attack will use a barbed arrow envenomed with the specified toxin. If you don't
+specify any, it will use the currently chosen barbed arrow, or the first available
+arrow in your quiver.
+=== Rapidfire ===
+ RAPIDFIRE
+Rapidfire will allow you to fire your bow at an increased rate of speed. Using it
+again will slow the rate back down.
+=== Marksmanship ===
