Two things really. First I want to ask if anyone who has read 8-bit theater has ever thought about actually creating Fighter's "Sword-Chucks" and if so, how would you do it? I remember seeing in a clip from a Kenshin OVA a Katana with a chain on the end and it reminded me of the sword-chucks.

The other thing is from Avatar. There was a really big guy with two small war-hammers chained to his belt so that he could throw them around and then pull them back to him.

I'm not very good at setting up stats so I think I'll just leave it open for others to do.

I also did the rat flail if you wanna see it.

You mean you want to create more weapons that are so absurd that they would actually smack you in the face when trying to wield them?

Simplest way to create swordchucks, IMO, is to use the stats for a flail and change the damage to slashing. Badda bing, badda boom.

For the chain-hammer-thingy, I'd probably do something like attack out to fifteen feet (like a whip), provokes AoO (like any other thrown weapon), move action to retrieve the hammer.

Or just call it a Light Hammer with the Returning ability.

There's that, but I got the impression that the OP was looking for something more mundane & less expensive.

How about a chainsaw...on a chain? For, you know, reaching those high branches while gardening. :P
