Dwarven thrower

Dwarven throwers, not to be confused with dwarven throwers crafted by elves, were enchanted dwarven warhammers that, once thrown, returned to the owner's hand.
==Description==
Even though they varied in design, the bold geometric shapes were the most commonly seen among dwarven-made arms. Some of these mighty weapons were able to produce hum or whine when in flight. This sound was referred to as "singing" by the stout smiths.
==Powers==
Dwarven throwers' enchantments made them only usable by dwarves. These hefty weapons possessed a +3 enchantment but were also ensorcelled to be especially devastating to their much-hated giant opponents. When a dwarven thrower was hurled at an opponent, it instantly returned to the thrower's hand after crashing into its target, after uttering the hammer's command word, unique to each weapon. Dwarven throwers could be turned as far as .
When non-dwarves wielded these hammers, they appeared to function as simple +2 enchanted weapons with no boomerang magic active.

Circa 1368 DR, one such dwarven thrower could be purchased from a human merchant in the town of Trademeet in Amn.
In 1491 DR, one of these magic hammers could be found in the abandoned mines of Tyar-Besil.
