Garrote Bolt
Activate ◆ Interact
The shaft of this silver bolt is engraved with wiry designs.
When a garrote bolt hits a target, it transforms into a silver garrote and wraps around one of the target's appendages, dealing an additional 2d12 persistent slashing damage. On a critical hit, it wraps around the target's throat, and the target can't breathe until the persistent damage ends.
Traits
An item with this trait can be used only once. Unless stated otherwise, it's destroyed after activation. Consumable items include alchemical items and magical consumables such as scrolls and talismans. When a character creates consumable items, they can make them in batches of four.
Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.
