Magic Items

A Staff of the Black Order is made of burnished black wood and is about 2 strides long, slightly twisted as if by age. There are meant to be twelve or twenty of them, stories vary, and no one knows where they come from. Each Staff only has power in a Black Order Mage’s hands. A Black Order Mage holding a staff gains 1 less fatigue from every spell cast, and has a Magic Save of +1. In addition she can expend a charge to do any of the following:

• Freeze any person where they stand if they fail a roll of Spirit resisted by 11. The Frozen person is unharmed, but immobile till an hour has passed.
• Carry the Mage’s voice to any or all people within 1 kleg no matter how softly she speaks.
• Launch a grey beam which does 3D4+2 damage to its target, Base Range 1
• Restore 10 fatigue to its bearer.

A newly found Staff has 30-50 charges. It is not known how they are re-charged, if indeed they can be.
