Cursed Scepter of Marveros

The former scepter of Marveros that according to religious tales of the Church of Dross was the weapon the deity used to destroy the body of Rusmus. It's made of Obsidian with a swirling, golden, yet pale magical energy at its tip.
According to the tales of the church, the curse of the item was placed onto it by the dying Rusmus itself.

Mechanics & Inner Workings

The scepter is severely cursed. Once used by Marveros itself it's believed to carry great destructive power, but currently the divine Curse engraived into it prevents anyone from wielding the scepter.

History

The scepter was found next to the dead body of Rusmus. The body itself was found sliced into multiple pieces which is where Dross mines most of its Leviathan Blood from. Anyone who held the scepter for more than a minute died a gruesome death of turning into chalk. Eventually the scepter was safely transported into the Cathedral of the Church of Dross, where it is kept under constant guard.

Significance

The scepter's tale and existence has a huge significance not only in the beliefs of the Church of Dross, but also that its tale would suggest that deities live and die much like the mortals instead of being truly immortal and invincible.
