The issue with using Splinter Spell Resistance in this manner is that it requires a saving throw. As a low level spell, it would be highly unlikely to work against anything we Spell Resistance high enough that we would care to try to reduce it.

The Talismans are neat, though. Can you add them to your goody page?
Added them. Is there room on that bow for a Bow of the Solars effect? If I'm reading that description correctly she'd be able to use use slaying arrows for whatever type she wants for a given encounter.

... If she shot someone with Arrow of Bone from such a bow, would they take two saves in a row, or is there a special rule for taking two simultaneous save or die effects on a single save type?

Add that to the goody page, too? Her new bow already cost 9,800 IM to craft (98,000 D&D gold), so we should probably wait before we double up on that.

I don't think the Slaying Arrow effect could be applied to an Arrow of Bone.
 
Here's what I've got for Mereth's updated character sheet. Between some gear drawn from the Armory and new stuff being crafted or upgraded for her this month, Mereth is fully kitted out in Companion-grade gear. She might only have 12 HD, but she's easily among our most dangerous vassals now.

I gave her one of the Swords of the Ruin Lord we've been holding onto. It's a perfect melee weapon for her, since she can turn it loose to attack enemies while she continues to focus on using her bow.

Before I send it to DP, does anyone see any issues with it that needs to be corrected? If ya'll would prefer to use Variable Wind (Combat) for her new feat, as @Artemis1992 proposed, rather than Mindsight, I can change that, too.

  • Entangle (Ex) Each Erinyes carries a stout rope some 50 feet long that Entangles opponents of any size as an Animate Rope spell (caster level 19th). An Erinyes can hurl its rope 30 feet with no range penalty. Typically, an Erinyes Entangles a foe, lifts it into the air, and drops it from a great height.

Animated Extreme Shield: AC Bonus: +3 + 1 (Enhancement) + 5 (vs Ranged), Weight: 25 pounds
  1. Lesser Crystal of Arrow Deflection: You benefit from a +5 bonus to AC versus ranged attacks.

Belt of the Battle Master: +5 Constitution, +2 Competence bonus to Initiative checks

  2. Battle (3 Charges/Day): 1 Charge (gain a Move Action), 2 Charges (gain a Standard Action), 3 Charges (gain a Full-Round Action)
Boots of Minor Displacement:
  • You are protected by a Blur spell, granting a 20% miss chance on attacks made against you. They function continually unless suppressed as a Standard Action. Another Standard Action restores the effect.
Celestial Glamered Reinforced Segmented Nimble Mithral Fullplate (+3): Armor Class: +11, Max Dexterity Bonus: +11, Armor Check Penalty: 0, Arcane Spell Failure: 15%, Speed: 30ft, Weight: 15 pounds
  • Glammer: Upon command, the armor changes shape and appearance to assume the form of a normal set of clothing. The armor retains all its properties (including weight) when it is so disguised. Only a True Seeing spell or similar magic reveals the true nature of the armor when it is disguised.
  • Greater Iron-Ward Diamond: This augment crystal grants you DR 5/--. This DR stacks with similar DR granted by any other source. Once the crystal has prevented a total of 50 points of damage, it becomes inert until the following day.

  2. 3 Charges/Day: 1 Charge (12 Temporary Hit Points), 2 Charges (18 Temporary Hit Points), 3 Charges (24 Temporary Hit Points), Duration: 10 minutes

Greater Ribbon of Disguise: Alter Self, Magic Aura, Undetectable Alignment (At Will)

Handy Haversack: This backpack is of high quality but appears otherwise normal.
  1. It has two side pouches, each of which appears large enough to hold about a quart of material. In fact, each is like a Bag of Holding and can actually hold material of as much as 2 cubic feet in volume or 20 pounds in weight. The large central portion of the pack can contain up to 8 cubic feet or 80 pounds of material. Even when so filled, the backpack always weighs only 5 pounds.
  2. While such storage is useful enough, the pack has an even greater power. When the wearer reaches into it for a specific item, that item is always on top. Thus, no digging around and fumbling is ever necessary to find what a haversack contains. Retrieving any specific item from a haversack is a Move Action, but it does not provoke the Attacks of Opportunity that retrieving a stored item usually does.
Launcher:
  • Somewhat resembling a crossbow where the bow mechanism has been replaced by a two foot long and two inch diameter hollow steel tube, this device allows its wielder to shoot items no larger than Tiny-size or weighing more than 10 pounds using the Launch Item spell up to 440 feet. Where applicable, the wielder must make a Ranged Attack roll to strike a target.
Muleback Cords(Slotless): Strength score is 8 higher than normal when determining carrying capacity.

Psionic Items:
Quiver of Abundant Ammunition: With a constant Abundant Ammunition enchantment, this quiver provides a never ending supply of arrows.

Ring of Protection from Holy & Chaos: Wearer gains immunity to the Holy Word & Word of Chaos spells.

Scabbard of the Amoral Edge: This scabbard resizes to accommodate any bladed weapon.
Soulfire Bracers of Archery:
  1. Immune to all death spells, magical death effects, and energy drain, and any negative energy effects
  2. +2 Competence bonus to Ranged Attack rolls and +1 Competence bonus to Damage using any type of bow.
Sword of the Ruin Lord: This +2 Obedient Longsword counts as Evil and Lawful for overcoming Damage Reduction.
  • Stats: Damage (1d8+2; 19-20/x2)
  • Greater Weapon Crystal of Life Drinking: Each time the sword inflicts lethal damage on a living creature, its wielder heals five points of damage. Once 50 points of damage to the wielder have been healed, the crystal becomes inert until the following day.

Add that to the goody page, too? Her new bow already cost 9,800 IM to craft (98,000 D&D gold), so we should probably wait before we double up on that.

I don't think the Slaying Arrow effect could be applied to an Arrow of Bone.
That's probably for the best, otherwise we'd inevitably end up with stuff like disintegrating Slaying Bone Arrows, which would be fun until people started shooting them at us. Bone arrow might be a useful spell to have scrolls for though. It's not like she needs to cast it to carry the arrow around and use it after all. We could easily stockpile the scrolls and have mages use them on arrows to pass out to whoever needs them before they deploy.

... If we were feeling particularly cheesy we could useRing Gates to deploy stuff like this to groups in the field as needed. :V
 
Mithral Fullplate sure does go along way to making a fallen angel look amusingly heroic.

Add in some Celestial flourishes from her Greater Ribbon of Disguise and her armor's Glammer effect, and Mereth could easily look downright Angelic.

👼 Mereth 👼: <launches five arrows which then split into ten arrows> <activates Belt of Battle> <launches five more arrows which then split into ten arrows>

Solar Angel: <Flees>

EDIT: Well, not really, not against a Solar, but a Planetar for sure.

Twenty arrows in one round?

So even Mereth has a Shounen Super-Move?

Damn. Every Companion is getting a goddamn super power which stands head and shoulders over their regular super powers.

Or just what amounts to 10 arrows from up to 3,000 feet away.

I'm imagining her firing all five arrows in a staggered fashion from over half a mile away so that by the time they split into ten arrows and reach their target, they all strike simultaneously.

Isn't it glorious?

Does that apply to specialty munitions? If we have her something like an arrow with a blasting pack core shaft would she get twenty pseudo-grenades or one and nineteen regular projectiles?

While an amusing thought, I wouldn't allow that and I doubt DP would either. It makes an already very powerful technique a bit too OP. Limiting it to the base arrow and whatever magic it has been imbued with by the bow or whatever special properties it may have (Cold Iron, Adamantine, etc) is more than enough, IMO.

Even if it was possible, however, it would still require 10 specialty arrows to work, since each arrow fired only splits once.
