Aura strong evocation CL 12th
Slot none; Weight 5 lbs.DescriptionAll tests indicate that this hollow metal tube is a rod of
flame extinguishing until its owner uses it to extinguish or
suppress a fire in a combat or other dangerous situation.
Once she does, she discovers that rather than quenching
the flame, the rod causes the flame to enter her body. This
flame persists inside of her for the next 24 hours, causing
minor discomfort and giving her the sickened condition,
but causing no visible injury. However, when the wielder is
adjacent to or within a flammable object or structure, she
feels inclined to set the object ablaze, using any means at
her disposal. Each round the wielder resists this urge, she
takes 1d6 points of fire damage as the flame within her
surges and roils. After 1 minute of this, she must make a
DC 15 Will save or succumb to the temptation; if she saves,
the urge passes, the internal fire stops harming her, and she
can interact normally with the flammable target thereafter.
Once the curse reveals itself, the owner must make a DC 15
Will saving throw to avoid using the item to try and extinguish
or suppress any fire she encounters which she herself did not
start. She cannot use the rod against fires that she personally
started. Successful curse-breaking magic allows the wielder to
get rid of the rod and harmlessly dissipates any fire persisting
inside her from the action of the rod.ConstructionRequirements rod of flame extinguishing; Cost —
