This exotic ranged weapon, invented by the neraphim, appears as a perfectly circular, nearly paper-thin hoop forged from a dark iron-like metal and sharpened on the outside edge. The annulat’s diameter is a little over 1 foot. The band of metal, while thin, measures some 2 inches in breadth.
When thrown, an annulat sails through the air with deadly accuracy, its cross-section so thin that it is almost invisible. Those proficient with the annulat are particularly accurate with the throwing hoop and can make it curve somewhat in flight. Targets who gain a cover bonus to their Armour Class have that bonus reduced by 2.
Neraphim treat the annulat as a martial weapon
