Maker/Smith: Leto Besra

Type: Dual Bladed Compound Bow (DBCB) / Arrow Stocked Semiautomatic Crossbow (ASSC)

Weapon Derivation: Energy Sword from Halo + Bow / Quiver + Crossbow

Holstered/Inactive Form: ASSC is naturally in quiver form and holstered to her right hip. DBCB is folded up and holstered to her left hip.

F orm 1: Bow form / Quiver

Form 2: Sword form / Crossbow

Dust Capacity: Crossbow holds dust-infused arrows.

Ammunition: Combination of armor-piercing arrows + dust-infused arrows

Usage: Track targets from a long distance and eliminate them with her bow and arrow. Using the bow, she can fire arrows with more force than her crossbow. At midrange, she quickdraws the crossbow and attempts to catch her opponents off guard. Turns bow into the sword, wielding the blade in one hand and the crossbow in the other. Semblance controls mechanical waves (for small objects) such that she can manipulate the direction of arrows slightly. So is the blade an energy weapon? If not, it is not even remotely close to the energy sword.

Do you have ANY idea why using a fixed blade sword to make a bow is a bad idea? swords are of limited flexibility, bows need to be extremely flexible. Most swords do not have the curve to make a bow viable, as bows need to be at least somewhat curved. Where does the tring come from?

If you want a detailed critique of this weapon, you're going to need to give us soe details on how it transforms and what type of sword it is.
