Staff of Heavy Winds

A wooden staff with amulets hanging from one of its ends, with boar skin wrappings and metal rings scattered along its length.


When a character uses the Staff of Heavy Winds as a magic implement to cast a spell using the Primal skill, the first Range effect added to the spell doesn’t increase its difficulty. Additionally, Attack spells cast by the wielder increase their base damage by 3.


As a maneuver, any character wielding this staff can slam its bottom end into the ground, activating it. When activated, it becomes heavier and sturdier, and heavy winds surround it for a brief amount of time. It becomes a weapon with the following profile until the start of the wielder’s next turn:
