|-
|Fear Stick (Rod of Terror)
|Metal club (+2) that causes fear when its command word 'Traig' is spoken. Decreases charisma.  It can only be used a limited number of times consecutively.  Once you use it, you have to wait a little while for it to recharge before it works again.  How long exactly I never figured out.  It can make allies run away too if you screw up.
|Found originally in the [[New World]] by [[Heloise]] and brought back to the Old World. She lost it in the large dungeon in [[Scotland]]. It made its way to the [[Lost Elven City]] most likely through the Hell portals the two locations had. It was used by the elves in that city until [[Ivan]] took it away for a bit. [[Esthalin]] retrieved it when she captured [[Ivan]]. Originally a weapon of the [[Tailed People]], who now want it back. 
|Held by [[Ivan]], [[Heloise]], [[Harald]], and [[Esthalin]], among others. Probably still in [[Esthalin]]'s possession.

|-
|Heavy Mace (Rod of Lordly Might)
|Footman's mace (+2), needs Str 16 to wield. Lots of buttons on the haft, and sigil in Linear A on the butt.
|Greek Island
|Party Item, used by Father [[Michael]], stolen by [[Heliodorus]], now in the hands of [[Harald]] as a +4 battle axe.

|-
|Magic Flail
|Two-headed flail (+3, heads attack independantly) usable only by clerics. There are two command words currently known of: 'Wing,' which causes flail to smack the wielder uncontrollably until the next New Year's Eve, and 'Klaug,' which causes the flail to hide inside itself. Originally a weapon of the [[Tailed People]]. Now destroyed.
|Taken from the corpse of Wogni, priest of the tailed people, in the [[New World]]
|Party Item, held in the past by [[Anna]], [[Heloise]], [[Harald]], [[Celdrix]], [[Great Dog]], [[Kai]], [[Edward]] the Penitent, and [[Reisha]]; now melted down and chucked into the rivers of Rus.

|-
|Spell Absorbing Scepter (Rod of Absorbtion)
|Metal scepter, can't be used as a weapon. Absorbs spells cast at the holder, and those spell levels can be used to cast spells without losing them from the wielder's memory.
|Taken from the [[Demon Emperor]] Justinian beneath the streets of Byzantium. 
|Party Item, used by [[Wirshin]], [[Jean-Claude]], and [[Harald]]


|-
|Staff of Nibiru
|A wooden staff with a bird's head at the top. When the user touches someone and thinks "Nibiru", they can be healed 1d8 to 3d8+3. It can also cure blindness.
|Taken from the [[Dilmun]] undead giant we encountered near the [[Karmathian Tower]]. 
|Party Item of the [[Following Alexander Party]], carried by [[Harald]].

|-
|Staff of the King of Cats
|Unknown
|Found in a cat-themed dungeon near the [[Sea of Glass]].
|Sought by [[Snowflake]], the current King of Cats, but [[Jean-Claude]] found it and took it to [[Baba Yaga|Baba Iaga]]. Shhh. Don't tell [[Snowflake]].

|-
