This is also known as the rod of seven shards. ## Seven words of power: - Ruat - Coelum - Fiat - Justitia - Ecce - Lex - Rex ## Abilities: Spell save DC is 14. +3 to hit - First shard can cast Cure Wounds 2/day - Second shard can cast Slow 1/day - Third shard can cast Haste 1/day First and second shard combined can cast Fly 1/day The shards seem to be connected, and with a channeling of arcane energy it is possible to make the shard levitate and point towards the next shard. Upon attuning with the shards after an 8-hour meditation [[Forrest]] was able to see what he believes to be the weave and was able to talk with a god. ## Locations: First shard was found in the catacombs beneath the cemetery in Baey Bluffs Second shard was found in cave/temple in the North Woods Third Shard was found in the mythical city of Mernia Fourth Shard is in Blisbane in the possession of [[Faral Cambral]] the Dread Lord of the [[TTRPG/DND/Cruthea/Factions/Zhentarim]] ## Physical Description: - First piece: 5 inches long - Second piece: 6 inches long - Third piece: 9 inches long ## [[Forrest]]'s notes on the shards from his death note - Blood seems to be important in the history of this staff, it was created with the blood of the vati and destroyed with the blood of Mishka. - I have at times during rituals and meditations used my own blood to better understand the shards.  Often this has helped me, but often seems to call to the queen - Every time we bring the rod more together it makes it more powerful.  We unlock more abilities and it makes it more likely the existing spells will hit.  However, I believe the [[Queen of Chaos]] said bringing it together will enable her return. - I believe we have been deceived by the queen of chaos.  I do not think she was awoken by the first shard being found.  Her influence on the [[TTRPG/DND/Cruthea/Planes/Feywild/Feywild]] seemed to begin significantly before that.  She knows more than she has shared. - When I have connected deeply to the shards, I have often gained flashes of the history, but I also frequently encounter the queen of chaos.  Cleansing the shards will likely be important and will likely depend on our more arcane friends. ```dataviewjs await dv.view("TTRPG/_scripts/dm-page") ```
