savagely gnarled gloomwood staff crowned with a large orb of gloomglass
Look: The twisted wood is rough to the touch, save for one section which has worn away to a soft smoothness from years of use. The rich plum gloomwood swirls with shades of black, adding a depth to the rock-like staff. A single crystalline stone, the size of an Olvi's fist, glimmers from a naturally created cage atop the stave. The gloomglass orb is awash in a rainbow of purple, orange, green, red, and blue hues that shift for dominance as light plays across it.
