Wand of Maximization

Wand of Maximization

Magic Wand - Enchantment Aura

A wand of maximization (often called a Magnum Wand) is a thick rod of hearthwood, blackened in arcane flames until it achieves a tempered state of hardness. It is thicker than a thumb in diameter, and approximately 17 inches long. It bears no markings, sigils, or other distinctions. In short, it's prodigiously ugly.

Wands of maximization are favored among war wizards and combat sorcerers, who focus on blasting their foes with as much damage as possible, rather than finesse or any attempts at afflicting their foe with some condition less than a quick death. These wands are not for the subtle-minded, nor those who shy away from causing massive destruction in their wake.

The owner of this magic item must wear it continuously for 24 hours to attune it to their aura, and until that time has passed, it provides no benefits to the wearer.
