Extremely popular with Rangers and Long Bowman, these arrows can be made by a Ward Master, also known as a Diabolist, who either is a wizard or is working with a wizard. The arrows do not require the skills of a full alchemist to create.

These are similar to the standard Dragon Bone arrows but are always indestructible through the use of a permanency ward. Like standard dragon bone arrows, these arrows are lightweight and have twice the range of a normal arrow.

The big addition is the enchantment of "Boomerang" with makes the arrow return to the person who fired it once it reaches its target. Arrow returns at the rate of four hundred feet per melee attack. As a result, many archers prefer to have several Dragon Bone "Returning" Arrows. At least three is preferred by most archers. None of the other specialty enchantments (Dragon Slaying, Lightning, etc) can be placed on these arrows. In addition, the enchantment of "Razor's Edge" is put on the arrow for greater damage.

The enchantment can also be placed on spears and javelins although these rival standard enchanted weapons as far as cost. This is mostly due to the amount of dragon bone required to create the larger weapons. In comparison, the enchanted arrows are not as expensive as common enchanted weapons. This is mostly due to the fact that the creator does not need to be a full alchemist. Even so, the arrows are far from cheap.
