Zenethian Staff

The Zenethian Staff is one of the divine Zenethian Items created by Zenthai, The Dragon King, during the Great War.

Description

The armor is described as a towering winged staff of green crystal. The head of the staff supports two Dragonwings. Supported between them is a flower-shaped winged crystal, said to be of both arcane and divine energies. This crystal hovers, suspended between the staff's wings.   It is said the Zenethian Staff gave Ivan, the Oozemaster, access to a greater volume of Azimuth's magic, and the ability to cast spells faster than any opponent.

History

The Third Age: The Age of Zenethia
When the threat of Esturk, The World's End, proved too great at the end of the Third Age, Zenthai, The Dragon King, elevated the six Zenethian Champions and from his own divine heart he forged six crystalline weapons of holy power. For Rita, Zenthai crafted the Zenethian Staff.   After the events of the Great War, the power held in the Zenethian Armor slowly faded over time. Rita developed good relations with the dwarf High King, Faldrick Oathenhammer, of Endor, the First Mountain. In honor of this bond and her service to the kingdom, Faldrick was entrusted with the protection of the Zenethian Staff. The staff was placed in the Oathenhammer's own tomb in the Mausoleum of Dwarf Lords after Rita's passing, to await her progeny.  
The Fourth Age: The Age of Shadow
In late 4A 996, the Zenethian Heroes sailed across the Leviathan Sea from Tarteria towards the lands of Endor. Along the way, they sensed a powerful holy presence and altered their course to the Masoleum of Dwarf Lords. Inside, the Heroes faced motes of darkness, the undead, and Steverossa, the Illithid, who laid in ambush here. The party gathered four items from the tombs of notable dwarves and presented them to a cryptic altar behind the dwarf king and queen's tombs. This opened the way beyond to a hidden sepulchre, where Ivan claimed the Zenethian Staff.  
Reforged
In 4A 996, the Heroes collected all the Zenethian Items. With Zenthai's blessing, the original relics were reforged into new and powerful forms.
