Chakram

A purely fictional version of the chakram has been used in many fantasy and martial mediums, such as the popular TV series Xena: Warrior Princess - where the fictional character Xena of Amphipolis, the main character of the show - is able to throw her chakram great distances and cause it to ricochet off of surfaces to either hit her enemy or return to her.
