“	The Hand Crossbow is a trademark weapon of the Assassin. Light and portable, yet deadly, the Hand Crossbow fires three iron bolts for an added measure of destruction. The Assassin likes to employ this weapon against distant foes, switching to Katar before closing to short range. The Tome of Power magically multiplies the Hand Crossbow’s projectiles. Instead of three bolts, five flaming bolts are fired from the Hand Crossbow. These bolts stick in their target for a moment before exploding for additional damage.	”
—The Chronicle of Deeds

The Hand Crossbow is a weapon used by the Assassin in Hexen II.

Overview

It is extremely accurate, and the three bolts hone in on their target. When powered up by the Tome of Power, it fires five bolts that explode upon contact with the enemy.
