Javelin of lightning

A Javelin of lightning was a magical weapon that could be thrown.

Description
When the wielder threw it and spoke a command word, the weapon transformed into a bolt of lightning. It could be thrown up to 120'. Each creature in the way to the target was affected, unless they managed to dodge the bolt. The lightning bolt turned back into a javelin when striking the target, and delivered a high amount of lightning damage.
