Disc Armor

The Disc Armor is an enemy in the Castlevania series. He is an armored knight that is an expert at throwing giant, spinning, razor-sharp discs.
==Description==
Disc Armors are not very common enemies and are usually found far and between. They are generally encountered stationary at the center of the rooms they appear in, and in many occasions near of staircases, where the inclined layout allows for their attacks to be maximized.
They wield a giant, spinning, razor-sharp blade which they hurl forward when approached. The disc is fastened to a metal string or chain which the knight uses to pull the blade back for further attacks, but the knight can also let the disc go if they find advantage of doing so, and they'll simply bring out another disc afterward. When defeated, the disc sometimes remains in place for a short period of time, keeping the momentum it had at the moment the knight died, thus still posing a threat.
Certain variants, when defeated, will open their armor's breastplate and let out a plethora of discs bouncing as they die. These are harmless, however, and are only added for aesthetic reasons. On the other hand, the variants in Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance can also open their breastplate and shoot a disc like a cannon ball, which can deal actual damage.

==Trivia==
*The enemy is probably inspired by the film Octopussy, where a thug uses a yo-yo saw to kill his victims.
**It could also be inspired by the NES game Rygar, where the player uses a weapon called Diskarmor which works like the Discus.
