When a Warrior reaches fifth level {and finds the Bowmaster's Bracers}, he can choose to become a Bowknight. It's pretty obvious that Bowknights are good in using Bows and Crossbows. However, they have got certain other advantages, which will be stated below the table.
 
 

Level:	Experience:	Hit Points:	Thac0:	Wpn. Prof. Slots:	Non-Wpn. Slots:
1	0	+1d3	-1	+0	+0
2	20000	+1d8	-2	+0	+0
3	40000	+1d8	-4	+1	+1
4	70000	+1d8	-5	+1	+1
5	120000	+1d8	-7	+1	+1
6	200000	+1d8	-8	+2	+2
and so on	+140000/ level	+1d6/ level	-1/ level	+1/ 3 levels	+1/ 3 levels

As a Bowknight, you need 12 strenth, 14 dexterity and 10 constitution. All races are allowed, but most Bowknights are human.

Bowknights also possess some other abilities:

• Despite their heavy armor, Bowknights are trained at fast movement, which is essential for all archers. They get a +3 bonus to their movement rate.
• Bowknights can specialize in any type of bow or crossbow.
• Bowknights are trained in Horse Archey and suffer no penalties unless the horse is moving at full speed.
