ARROW(S) (ranged) ================= Weight: ~0.05 kg Rank(s): any In general, arrows range in length from 20 to 40 inches. The feathers, or fletching, of the arrow consist of two of more feathers set coaxially to the shaft. This gives the arrow its aerodynamic lift. If the feathers are instead set diagonally, the arrows rotate in flight. Goose feathers and parrot feathers are used most often in fletching, though pressed paper and leather are sometimes used.
