Rod of Varied Apocalypse

CL 7 Magic Rod • Weak Evocation
Cost: 22,500 gp
Weight: 4 lbs.

This rod is in the shape of a square, roughly hammered bar of black metal, scarred and seared by the energies it emits. It is capped with a small flared funnel-shaped opening, which is always filled with baleful light of shifting colors, randomly switching between red, green, blue, yellow, and colorless shimmers.

Wielders of this rod can utter a command word as a standard action to cast a Dragon's Breath spell, using up one charge from the rod.

You must speak in a rough, loud tone to activate this rod, the command growled aloud, as you invoke a deadly power. At the culmination of the command, you point the flared end of the rod at what you wish to destroy, and it roars out a blast of energy. The area affected is either a 30 foot cone (a 6x6 square space adjacent to the wielders space) or a 60 foot blast (a 3 x 12 square space, of which the 3 square wide side must share a side with the wielders space). Creatures wholly or partially in the affected area take an amount of elemental damage as defined below. The damage type inflicted is chosen by the wielder of the rod as the command word is snarled out, and may be one of any type of common (Acid,  Cold,  Fire,  Lightning,  Sonic) energy. A successful save as defined below results in half damage.

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:
