Spurred by a discussion in my faction discord, may I present to you: the Bee’s Nest (or Wasp Nest, whatever). Potentially available as a unique outcome for crimes like Burglary, accompanied by a minor loss of life, and/or perhaps purchasable from somewhere overseas.
When lobbed at an opponent, it “poisons” them, dealing damage over time. This damage would be highest the turn AFTER the item is thrown, and then decrease by roughly 25% every turn afterwards as the bees/wasps die off.
To be honest I’ve put very little thought into the balance of this item. I just like the idea of hucking bees at people.
