Spellstaff

Spellstaff was an enchanted elven quarterstaff wielded by the inhabitants of the ancient Myth Drannor.

Description
Spellstaff was a long oaken quarterstaff, light as a piece of balsa wood. The surface of the weapons was covered in glyphs and runes resembling bolts of electricity and rusts of flame.

Powers
Spellstaff could be wielded as a sturdy implement of battle but it was enchanted to catch, absorb, and store lightning bolt, fireball, or similar fire and lightning spells. The wielder could release stored destructive magics at a target with a simple double-tap.

History
In the, a member of the Veiled Ones adventuring group – Ghleanna Stormlake, received a spellstaff from baelnorn Miroden Silverblade. The defender of the mythal gifted the ancient weapon to the half-elven sorceress after she suffered numerous shocks and burns from the Cult of the Dragon mages. Later, the stall was instrumental in the group's battle against the leader of the cult Kya Mordrayn. The Wearer of Purple sent a crackling lightning bolt towards Ghleanna, allowing her to absorb the spell, returning it back to Mordrayn and badly burning her flesh. The staff was also instrumental in protecting her allies from the fire breath of the cult's dracolich Pelendralaar. Instead of incinerating the adventurers, Ghleanna's spellstaff absorbed the dragon's flames. Under such stress, the weapon started to smoke, and its glyphs blazed brightly.
