BIC: "Yes, that is what its called due to its shape," Jester said.
The Life Rider set his staff to the side, mindful to place it so that it wouldn't fall into the water. He removed his bow from where it had been slung behind him so that the dragons could see it. He also showed them what an arrow looked like.
"The arrow, as you can see, is shaped like a tooth. It impales whatever I decide to aim it at, like this," Jester said, demonstrating by knocking the arrow and pulling back his bow. "Then, I just aim and let go. If you have good aim, then the arrow flies to the directed target. Quite useful because I can't stalk up on something to kill it."
Jester put the arrow back but let the bow rest lightly at his side. He had only the luxury of a bow and arrow when he had been amongst humans and so he used the weapon well. It had been the only thing between him and death before Fazoola found him. Recently, he had noticed his eyesight diminishing; it made hunting, especially at dawn or twilight, more difficult for the older man. No need to tell his dragon companions about that, though.
Acacia would have liked to see Jester actually shoot the arrow but didn't ask the Rider to do so. He had his reasons, she felt sure. The arrow tip seemed especially deadly and she saw how it was fashioned after a tooth. Very smart! Though, she much preferred her own powers than to rely upon something like a bow and arrow.
OOC: Yeah, I figured as much but I can go on what I know of Siru's character. Jester can not. So, jumping to conclusions away!
