The Badger Bolas of Blasting is a Bolas consisting of a Length of Cord with 5 ends on each of the ends is a small leather Pouch containing 2oz of Blasting Powder that has a total weight is 1lb.

This weapon can be created using String and 10oz of Blasting Powder but it has to be crafted in advance before Combat.

 Only one BBB Bolas can be used during a turn even if the player has multiple actions.

This is a Finesse Ranged Weapon with a 15-60ft Range as it needs 15ft to fully open. You can only attack an enemy Creature or Object within Line Of Sight.

One Action can be used before throwing to light the fuse but it must be lit with a flame if the fuse is not lit treat it as a normal Bolas the fuses will be lit the moment they come into contact with flame.

The fuse Length on the Blasting Powder can be set by the player from instantaneous up to 10 minutes.

If they are a Small to Large Creature and fail they are grappled by the Bolas and it inflicts 1d4 Bludgeoning Damage If they are a Hugh or Gargantuan they can not be Grappled but will still take the 1d4 Bludgeoning Damage and the Bolas become entangled on them. (wrapped around a leg stuck on a wing etc without impeding them at all).

On the Creatures next, turn, they can make a DC10 saving throw to break free of the Bolas if successful the Bolas is broken and falls to the floor at their feet If the Fuses are lit they continue to burn down and will explode when the time runs out.

On a Critical Success (Nat 20) saving throw, as well as the Bolas being broken and falling to the floor the fuse is also cut and the countdown stops, the fuse will still be reignited when it comes into contact with Flame or Larva.

On a Critical Failure (Nat 1) the Bolas explodes instantly and the Creature takes double damage. 

If the attack is against an Object is successful the Object is wrapped up in the Bolas and any moving parts are impeded.

On a successful saving throw, the bolas miss the target and fly past up to the full 60ft and land on the floor Hugh and Gargantuan Creatures cannot avoid the Bolas but will take no damage from them on a successful saving throw.  

 

BLAST DAMAGE: Upon Ignition, the 10oz of Blasting Powder in the bolas explode dealing 10d6 Bludgeoning damage forcing every creature within a 20ft Radius to make a DC13 saving throw taking half damage on a saving throw any Creature Grappled by the Bolas cannot escape the blast and takes full Damage.

LARVA: if the Bolas come into contact with Larva it will instantly explode and the blast radius of the Damage is Doubled to 40ft and the Damage is changed from Bludegoning to Fire.
