Rod of Deadly Flames
- Cost: 22,500 gp
- Weight: 4 lbs.
This rod is in the shape of a stout wooden tube, capped on both ends by volcano-shaped iron bosses, the whole with a hole bored through it so that the Rod may be sighted through. Often, Alchemical Fire will be poured into one end to empower the device, although this is not always neccessary. When the command word is uttered, the rod shudders and emits the terrifying rumble, crackle, and hiss of a great bonfire, while the smell of smoke permeates the air.
Wielders of this rod can utter a command word as a standard action to cast a Firefall spell, using up one charge from the rod.
The rod consumes the fire source (up to size Large), which is immediately extinguished, such that an alchemical item used as the source adds no additional damage, nor does it harm the wielder of the rod. Source fires larger than size Large continue burning, albeit somewhat diminished.
As a special case, a creature with the fire subtype can be used as the source of fire for this spell. Such abuse causes 1 point of Primal damage per creator level of the rod (no saving throw).
The coruscating rain of fire caused when the fire source erupts fills a hemispherical burst with a radius of 30 feet, a gigantic 13 x 13 square space. All creatures and objects in the area take damage as laid out below as Fire (energy, common) damage, and suffer the Singed condition. Creatures who make successful Reflex saves against the DC described below take half damage and don't catch on fire. Note that the direct damage will not affect unattended objects, but the Singed condition is very likely to burn away many things indeed.
If a targeted creature has spell resistance, the wielder of the rod must first make a Bailiwick skill check against the target's Maneuver Defense. If they equal or exceed this number, the spell is resolved against the target as normal. If the check fails, the spell is cast from the rod (using up a charge) but has no effect on the target creature.
You can purchase this rod at a higher creator level than the minimum required to cast the spell. Doing so increases the potency of the spell as described above, but also increases the cost, as follows:
