Bolt of Lightning (Magic Bolt)

Also called thunder bolts, these bolts appear to be normal bolts until fired from a crossbow. After being fired, a bolt of lightning becomes a 7' bolt of lightning with a range equal to the maximum range of the bow that fired it (a bolt fired from a heavy crossbow has a range of 240 yards, and a bolt fired from a light crossbow 180 yards).
These bolts grant a +2 bonus on attack rolls and cause 4d4 hp of damage if they strike a target. A save vs. spell is applicable; if the save is successful, only half damage accrues to the creature struck. Furthermore, all creatures within a 15' radius of where this magical bolt hits must save vs. petrification or be stunned for one round due to the ear-piercing clash of thunder which accompanies the strike.
Bolts of lightning are usually found in quantities of 2d4. They are also often found mixed with normal bolts or with magical bolts of other types.
