A preternatural master in the art of archery boasting an undisputed understanding and intimate knowledge of even the most elementary intricacies of various shooting techniques and forms, Aeron has, through rigorous mental conditioning and training, crafted herself into arguably the greatest known archer of her time. Abandoning the standardized practice of relying on one's dominant eye, Aeron possesses the rarely witnessed ability to use either for aiming, having trained her less dominant eye to be as equally effective as her more dominant one. Something she achieved via retraining, using an eye-patch over her dominant eye as a temporary measure to facilitate the progression of her less dominant eye's aiming ability.
Additionally, she has furthermore trained both hands to boast an equal degree of dexterity with the bow, capable of drawing the string with whichever hand she desires regardless of which eye she prefers, rendering her the complete archer, unbound by the aforementioned restrictions of relying on one's dominant eye or more dexterous hand. Using a perfected shooting form, Aeron often holds her body perpendicularly to the target, with her feet placed a similar distance apart as her shoulder width. However, a perfected practitioner of the more advanced stances, she effortlessly transitions between neutral, open and closed stances, adhering to her particular preference.
A dogmatic finger shooter, Aeron commonly places her index finger above the arrow while her next two fingers are positioned below it. Never one for obvious projection of her chosen technique and style, Aeron's string hand when drawn towards the face, rests lightly at her selected, fixed anchor point which remains consistent from shot to shot for the maximization of accuracy. Her anchor point may be at the corner of the mouth, to the cheek, on the chin, or to the ear, depending on her preferences. Her bow arm is held outwards toward the target while her elbow remains rotated so that her inner elbow is perpendicular to the ground. Aeon's release technique is designed to keep her drawing arm rigid, the bow hand relaxed, and the arrow moved back using the back muscles as opposed to simple arm motions. Lessening the recoil after each shot.
Aeron uses a sight picture, including the bow, the arrow shaft, the hand, the target, and the arrow tip as seen by her. With a fixed anchor point, which is where the string is brought to or close to her face, she fully extends her bow arm, allowing for successive shots taken with the sight picture in the same position, this enables her to adjust her aim while shooting successively, achieving accuracy.
