Characters of Maldene: Lindel

One of the secondary characters in our main group is an elf named Lindel. With the bow he is unsurpassed, able to hit just about anything that he can see. That would be normal enough for a fantasy world elven archer on steroids, but Maldene has a bit of the real world in it. Like for instance, when the target is not affected by mere wooden arrows at all. Or if it’s something like an Elemental of a type made of pure air or pure water alone. How do physically affect such a creature at all, much less with arrows?

In fact, you’d be surprised how often this comes up. Lindel gets a perfect shot off, hits the thing dead center, then discovers his arrows are completely useless. It’s nearly a running gag until it gets to the point where Lindel starts to get quite frustrated. Oh, not everything is immune to arrows, of course, but like I said, the real world has a place even in fantasy.
