Description

The hard substance used to make this rod is as black as space and time, banded at the top by two bolted strips of an unknown metal. It is otherwise devoid of ornamentation, and seems to diminish other normal items it is placed close to.

Lore

The Negation Rod has seen a great deal of use over the years as a weapon for battle, a construction tool, and even as a medical device, in some extreme cases. It is said that the method for its creation revolves around distilling the essence of a disintegration spell, then solidifying it with the metal it is bound in, for it is only this strange material that is capable of harnessing and controlling such deadly magic.
