Old Staff

The Old Staff was Azuth's favored weapon.

Description
Both ends of the wooden, rune-scribed staff were shod in iron. At the top a fist-sized sapphire pulsed with enormous arcane energies.

History
In 1385 DR, Zasian Menz (serving Cyric) and Kashada (serving Shar) traveled to Dweomerheart and were able to steal the Old Staff. Cyric subsequently used the Old Staff to slay Mystra, causing the Realms-wide catastrophe known as the Spellplague.
