| - Discus is a species of gliding dragon lizard (or agamid) that makes its home on the rocky shore. Pretty green-and-yellow-colored lizards, they take their name from the round shape of their wing-like rib and membrane extensions, similar to that of flying dragons. These enable them to make short, quick glides between rocks in pursuit of insects and to avoid the gulls that prey on them.
- The normal Discus can be thrown to all sides, and when it touches the terrain, it moves along the ground. With the Golden Armor and Discus, Arthur can use the Mirror Magic (鏡の魔法). A mirror will appear in front of Arthur, and for a short period of time, it will protect him like a shield from the enemies.
- Discus belong to the genus Symphysodon, which currently includes two (or three) species:
* Symphysodon Discus (suggested names for subspecies - see below)
* Green Discus
* Blue discus
* Brown Discus
* Heckel Discus
* Tefe Discus[1] There is disagreement on the taxonomy. Commonly three species have been accepted, but recent studies suggest two species since Symphyson aequifasciata and Symphyson discus share the same genes, while the Symphysodon tarzoo has different mtDNA.

- Discus is an ancient weapon also used in competitions from Earth. When a SG team arriving at the Aegis for the first time on a day reserved for physical competition among Spartans. Aegisians see teams arm badges and note the similarities with the Spartan Lambda believe them to be guests or agents for their god Pelops. They are invited by the Queen Helen personally to participate in competitions running discus and javelin, hand to hand combat and broad jumping. (RPG: "System Lord Plot Hooks")
- The Discus is a recurring item used as a throwing weapon. It is most associated with the Ninja class, although also used by some exotic orders of Grapplers, where it is commonly the only throwable item used, except for Chakram and rocks. Like all weapons of its class, the discus has an area-of-effect attack and will continue its flight path after hitting an opponent, provided the attack was succesful. Unlike the Chakram, Boomerang, Fuma Shuriken and some other throwing weapons, the Discus will not return to its thrower after executing an attack - it is hence a discardible, much like shuriken.
