Light Boomerang

From Episode D6: Star Wars D6 Wiki




Light Boomerang

Type:  Energy field assisted boomerang

Difficulty:  Variable (see below)

Skill:  (A) Light Boomerang

Ranges:  2-10 (moderate)/20 (difficult)/60 (very difficult)

Damage:  5D

Notes:  If throw or catch difficulty missed by >10, the boomerang either actives too early (causing damage to user's hand), or isn't caught (inflicting damage randomly).  Requires the Light Boomerang Combat Force power to use. The light boomerang was at one time a highly prized weapon, used primarily by Jedi who enjoyed showing off or where on the front lines of the Sith conflicts.  Today, there are none believed to still exist, and only a scant handful of scholars know of it's existence.  Like the light whip and force lash, it uses crystal, wave-guide and mirror technology to create an energy field around the actual weapon.  For safety reasons, it may only be activated telekinetically, otherwise the user's hand would be instantly removed.  Once thrown, the Jedi would be able to guide his weapon against several targets in one throw.  Attempting to use this weapon without intense training is suicidal.
