Mistryl Zenji Needles

Used by the enigmatic group of women known as the Mistryl Shadow Guard, Zenji Needles were lethal, thrown weapons in trained hands. They were usually about 10 centimeters in length and the ends were decorated with a jewel of some type, lending to the balance and weight of the weapon. Usually worn as decorative hair ornaments, the lacquered Zenji Needles could be hurled with deadly accuracy. With sufficient force, Zenji Needles could penetrate some forms of body armor, including Stormtrooper plastoid armor. Made from a variety of gems, metals, and crushed glass, Zenji Needles gave the appearance of being decorative ornaments, usually for the hair, but could actually give the wearer an unaccounted-for weapon which had the potential to change the dynamics of any situation.

The Mistryl Shadow Guards were trained to use the Zenji Needles to their utmost potential, making the thrown weapons very lethal in their trained hands. Coming across the weapons elsewhere in the galaxy was extremely rare. If a member of the Shadow Guard was to encounter someone from outside their organization or culture carrying Zenji Needles, the owner might very well incur the hostilities of the Shadow Guard member.
