A partially-rusted medium-gray rod made of material that appears to be stone or metal. It is about 1 1/2 feet long and 3 inches in diameter. If one looks closely, some unreadable script is engraved into its side.
When held, it allows the user to move one metal object under size 1 and/or 5 pounds. To properly guide the object, the user must make a INT+SPI check with target 8 every minute under normal conditions, or every round under stress (combat, time limitations, or dangerous situations). The rod must be moved to affect the metal object.
Characters who have spent a lot of time practicing with the rod may receive bonuses to this roll.
