SPECIAL FEATURES
Spinners contain a small chip of Adegan crystal, helping sooth a Jedi's Force aura and provide mild comfort and relaxation when using the simple gadget. The balanced small lead weight on each arm of the spinner enables it to spin faster and longer with one small flick of the finger. A smooth circular disc on the bottom of the spinner allows the user to hold it on one finger or between two, and even rest it on a flat surface.

Strengths:
- A strong, solid design that can't be bent or broken easily by hand
- Able to be designed specifically for each taste, with no limitation on creative idea

Weaknesses:
- No protection from blasters or lightsabers

DESCRIPTION
Stephanie Swail designed a form of "Spinner" to give her some comfort during her time with the Silver Jedi.

A very simple, galactic known design of common metal or plastic shaped around a bearing with small weights at the ends of the arms, the spinner was a hand-held gadget used to relieve stress or anxiety, taking the user's mind off a certain situation.

Stephanie had the Silver Jedi mass produce her "Force Spinners" in a number of colours, shapes and designs for her friends and allies. Kept in a small cloth pouch, the Force Spinner was not cumbersome or heavy and could be stored on a person and used wherever. Some of the designs with sharper points are helpful when in a sticky situation with enough force used to leave a mark on a foe.

Most of the Spinners handed out to the Jedi had a chip of Adegan crystal in the centre, offering a small soothing connection to the Force and giving a small peaceful aura to the user. With the design, the Spinner also emitted a slight whistle, depending how one held it, akin to a wind-chime, again to help with relaxation, distraction and a meditative tool.

• Please provide the actual links to authors / websites where you found these images.

- Provides no Force strength or boost to the owner

• The lack of a powerful boon does not a Weakness make. That's the 'default' state of most extant items. Please remove this.

- No protection from large, destructive weapons

• What constitutes a 'large, destructive weapon'? The way this reads, even a weak blaster could reduce it to a jumbled mess of plastic or bent metal.

good weapon for stealth take-downs.

• The 'blades' on these things are entirely too short to be effective as 'stealthy one-shot shuriken'. Unless you're targeting the eyes and/or neck. If you seriously intend to use these things as weapons, please add the relevant portions of the Ranged template and fill them out.

Looks good elsewise. Just make sure to credit the proper authors, and this should be good to go.
