You can throw almost any object in the game, with boulders probably being the only exception.

Throwing weapons

Throwing weapons at monsters is a good strategy to use, especially when facing monsters with a passive attack.

You can also throw arrows and crossbow bolts, but they are more effect when fired from a bow or crossbow.

Throwing potions

Whatever effect the potion has when you drink it will be the effect when a monster is hit by it. For example: throwing a potion of blindness at a monster will cause it to go blind, if the monster can go blind.

Throwing a potion into an empty space or against a wall will cause it to break.

Monsters can and will throw potions at you, so be carefull when you drop potions on the ground or they might be used against you later.

Throwing gems

Throwing a gem is the same as throwing a rock if you are throwing them at a monster. You can also throw gems at a Unicorn of your alignment to increase your luck.

Throwing food

You can throw a tripe ration to a dog or cat to tame it.

Throwing a cream pie at a monster can blind it. The Keystone Kops like to throw these pies at you.

Throwing everything else

Throwing other objects might have special effects. Give it a try!
