- Improvised Thrown Weapons
- Sometimes objects not crafted to be weapons get thrown, (small rocks, vases, pitchers, lightsabers, and so forth). Because these objects are not designed for such use, characters who use improvised thrown weapons are treated as not proficient with them and take a -5 penalty on their attack rolls. The GM determines the size and damage dealt by an improvised thrown weapon.
