Arrow of Ripping

Weapon (arrow), rare (requires attunement by a barbarian or ranger)

This +1 arrow has the word “ripper” carved on its shaft in Primordial (Terran). The head is an unusual furrowed shape that rotates when examined.

Radiates: Transmutation magic.

Power: When loosed from a bow, this arrow sprouts iron barbs along its shaft. It flies in a bizarre tumbling motion accompanied by a powerful whine.

If it hits a creature, the arrow continues to drill its way in, enlarging the wound and causing extra damage. The creature takes an extra 1d8 piercing damage at the end of every round until the arrow is removed, 2 rounds pass (enough time for the arrow to complete its exit from the body), or the creature dies. The creature may remove the arrow as an action (taking an extra 1d4 piercing damage in the process).

Charges: This arrow has a number of charges equal to your Wisdom modifier + your proficiency bonus.
