Used by ancient halfling "tribes" in Faerun (Forgotten Realms.)

Anyone ever think about creating them as actual weapons in the game?

It'd be something interesting to see... Cadderly uses them in the Cleric Quintet (by R. A. Salvatore).. (Think yo-yo, kind of, except a weapon.)

[WoeTheSinner]

i think this actualy showed up as an exotic weapon in one of the side books...bah i dont remember which one i'll look over my stuff when i get home...bah now this is going to bother me all day long!

[Ssri-Tel-Quessir Hitokiri]

It does. I don't remember which one either. But I think they did something like d2 dmg. The spindle-disks were great weapons in the story but I don't think they were that great in the game.

[Yurith]

they sound fun. An adventure for my halfling rouge.

[WoeTheSinner]

ok I don't seem to be able to find it, i did find halfling skip rocks in Sword and Fist, which are similar to this but not quite what we are lookig for. I don't seem to be able to find my copy of Song and Silence though...it might be int here...Its not in the complete warrior...BAH...I hope I wans't confusing the skip rocks for this

[Yurith]

Explain skip rocks to me. Andreas has been idol for too long.

[Vaskre]

Hmmm.. well they wouldn't make an effective weapon, really, I mean they could.. It'd be interesting to make criticals happen alot with them, or have feats, or even a class, revolved around it. (Probably halfling only for the class.) - Just a thought.. it'd be interesting to RP, that's for sure.

Mesmerize

One ___ carrying a spin disk may make an attempt with his spin disks to mesmerize a creature of 9 or less intelligence. If the creature has less than 2 intelligence, there is no effect. If the player is disturbed at any time, the creature is no longer mesmerized. During mesmerization, a creature may make a will save every round to escape it...

or something like that.. it's late.. I should go to bed.. but I dunno, I think it'd be fun to RP something like that. Whee for Cadderly. (I still haven't finished those books either.. going to read 'em right now.)

[Yurith]

A prestige class just for spin disks...where can they be found?

[Vaskre]

They'd have to have some knowledge in history and such and they could be researched at a few of the bigger libraries. (Edificant Library when it still existed.. though I imagine you could research them now at Spirit Soaring.) Nonetheless, cool thing to RP. -always liked unconventional and exotic things-

[Yurith]

Someone pm me a d&d map!

[WoeTheSinner]

ok its not in song and silence, im starting to think maby it was the skip rocks...I shall not give up Continue to look i shall

[Vaskre]

I found part of it on the wizards webpage

Spindle Disk: A spindle disk is a tiny exotic melee weapon. The fist-sized sharpened crystal disk has a seam around the edge and a 3-foot cord wrapped into the seam. It is used like a yo-yo; the wielder spins the disk outward at a target, and, if it misses, it automatically winds itself up again (it can be used to make iterative attacks). If the disk hits a target, it must be wound manually (a move-equivalent action) before it can be used to attack again. A spindle disk is technically a thrown item and uses the wielder's Dexterity bonus instead of Strength for the attack roll, although it does not provoke an attack of opportunity when used. The wielder's Strength bonus applies to damage.

Cost 5 gp; damage 1d4, critical x2, weight 3 lb., type bludgeoning.

It's listed there near Cadderly's template (an example Chosen of Deneir.)
