NAME:
→ Reality Marble

TYPE:
→ Bow

FORM:
→ Compound Bow

...........................................................................

BRIEFING:
→ The Reality Marble is a specially made compound bow. Being mostly black instead of the handle, which is blue, it is equipped with a special 'folding mechanic' on the borders of said handle. An array of different springs and gears together with storing cases for the strings make for two modes - active, and closed. While in closed mode, the bow is 'snapped over' on the moving parts installed right next to the handle, snapping 'inside'. A control-mechanism holds it in place, which can only be deactivated by holding the bow in the hand and pressing two buttons on it,allowing the loaded springs to 'unfold' the bow and nearly instantly tighten the string. This process makes little noise, thus allowing for a swift preparation of the weapon.
The size is nothing special, being absolute average. The power behind it, though, is above said average. While not holding as much power as say, a korean bow, it still has a larger firing range than a sports-bow or longbow.
To fold it back together, the two buttons have to be pressed again, and then, both parts need to be snapped back in at least slightly before letting go of the buttons. The mechanic will do the rest of returning it into the natural state.
Of course, no bow fires without arrows. The black quiver on the back is normally sealed, but can be opened with a simple movement of unscrewing the top. It can also be fixated onto the hip instead of the back to allow for faster drawing of the next arrow, but hampers movement like it. Unless otherwise stated, Shirou enters every thread with 30 arrows. The arrows themselves are made out of lightweight metal with a more solid tip to pierce the target.

Spoiler:

The picture is from BEFORE the modifications for the folding-mechanic where made. For a describtion of the look and working of that, refer to the Briefing.

SPECIAL ABILITIES:
→ The extremely quick unfolding and ability to draw an arrow while it is doing this very fast action in itself allows for virtually no delay until the first arrow is fired. This 'quickshot' ability negates the normal disadvantage of having to prepare a bow for firing.
