Wand of the Four Moons

The Rod of Four Moons, also known as the Wand of Four Moons, was the favored weapon of the Faerûnian goddess Selûne the Moonmaiden.

Description
The mace had a long straight shaft with four sharp flanges, each depicting a different phase of the moon.

Powers
After the Time of Troubles of 1358 DR, the Wand of Four Moons had all the magical powers of a rod of security, a rod of resurrection, a wand of paralyzation, a wand of polymorphing, and a wand of lightning combined. It had still more, unknown powers. It could be wielded as a weapon, and granted its wielder skill in its use.

After the Year of Wild Magic, 1372 DR, the Rod of Four Moons was a +5 heavy mace with the powers of a defending, disruption, and holy weapon.

Worship
A sacred replica of the Wand of Four Moons was kept in the House of the Moon temple in Waterdeep by 1369 DR. This was created and blessed by Selûne to commemorate her battle with Shar in the city during the Time of Troubles in 1358 DR. Identical in appearance, it levitated within a glass case guarded by a silverstar priest and radiated a soft, silvery-blue light. It had no other powers, but some lucky pilgrims saw it drip Selûne's essence or heard the goddess whisper inspiring or helpful words. When Selûne manifested in the temple, she emerged from this replica. It was said to contain some of her power.

During the annual temple holiday of Selûne's Hallowing, High Priestess Naneatha Suaril bore this Wand of Four Moons at the head of a parade through the streets. It was claimed by some that Naneatha could, with a plea to the goddess, summon the real Wand of Four Moons in place of the replica and wield it with its full power. Selûnite pilgrims came to the temple to see this holy relic.

After the Rod of Four Moons, the heavy mace was the favored weapon of Selûnite clerics.
