3e SRD:Slaying Arrow
Slaying Arrow
This +1 arrow is keyed to a particular type of creature. If it strikes such a creature, the target must make a Fortitude save (DC 20) or die (or, in the case of unliving targets, be destroyed) instantly. Note that even creatures normally exempt from Fortitude saves (undead and constructs) are subject to this attack. When keyed to a living creature, this is a death effect. To determine the type of creature the arrow is keyed to, roll on the following table:
d% Target Type

01-05 Aberrations

09-13 Beasts
14-20 Constructs
