Shuriken throw set

Although, "Thrown (small/large)" isn't exactly a catchy name.

What would we call these two sets to be clearly distinct between large and small?

 

Thank ye.  😄

 

Anyway, as for names, maybe:

  • Flechettes for small
  • Thrown  or Thrown Weapon for large

To further differentiate between the two, Flechettes have more status effect related things (flash bomb, smoke, shock, bleed, etc.) and spread-related attacks while Thrown is more about straight up damage (though stun would work in here) and trick shot type attacks.

 

I keep getting ideas for cosmetics, so far I've got;

Flechettes Thrown Weapons
  • Playing Card, 
  • Tarot Card (slightly larger card and differently textured)
  • Darts
  • Feathers
  • Sutra (a tall piece of paper with inked symbols on one side used for spell casting)
  • Capsule (like Batman: TAS, tumbles in flight)
  • Stake/Spike ( for Vampire Hunters)
  • Throwing Star (spins in flight)
  • Spike Shuriken
  • Small Sphere
  • Boomerang, curved
  • Boomerang, angular (more metal like)
  • Boomerang, spiky (almost, but not quite a Batarang)
  • Chakram, smooth
  • Charkram, spiky
  • Discus
  • Discus, glowing
  • Hunga Munga (look it up, it's awesome)
  • Giant throwing star
  • Glaive 2 Point (Blade movies)
  • Glave, multipoint (Krull)

 

Sorry for rambling, still kinda new at the game but excited to contribute.

I'd like to request thrown knives and/or axes for the darts set. I think making the multi-throwing AoE and status while the single-throwing single-target (maybe with chain attacks) is a good idea. Maybe multi-throwing can have some kind of mark mechanic with attacks that consume marks for extra damage? There's a sorta-kinda mark set in beam rifle, but it doesn't consume the marks. Dunno, I kind of like mark mechanics and hope to see more of them in general.

 Was playing with whether this may be possible using current scrapper sets. I came up with either a claws or a spines build...
