	The lethal bola is a pair of short cords or light chains tied together in a criss-cross shape, with sharp-spiked weights tied to three of the four ends. A bola can be drawn and thrown with one hand. It always takes a move action to draw a bola, to avoid tangling the complex cordage, even with Quick Draw (Feat). When thrown by a proficient wielder, lethal bolas spread out as they rotate and can wrap around a foe's legs. Despite their odd looks, lethal bolas are extremely handy, and a proficient user can fling them at an instant's notice. Lethal bolas deal lethal damage, but cannot be used as a melee weapon. During the wielder's turn, lethal bolas can be used to perform trip attacks. If the wielder of a lethal bola is holding the weapon in his hand, he can use the lethal bola to make an attack of opportunity against any foe who moves within thirty feet of him, even though it does not threaten in melee. However, when used to make any attack of opportunity, a bola cannot make a trip attack. A lethal bola does not threaten, nor does it permit flanks. Lethal bolas belong to the "Thrown" weapons group.
