- | The staff is the most common weapon for Aligned: it doubles as a walking stick and other useful tools, unlike most weapons designed purely to inflict injury -- and when it comes to inflicting injury, sophisticated weaponry has no improved much over the physics of leveraged concussive blows. This form was discovered by Opgomon, an Aligned gnome with a penchant for clever mechanical modifications to his staff. After his initial discovery, it became more easily accessible and widespread. The actualization of this form manifests a bo staff with one of Opgomon's favored modifications: a hallow shaft fitted with an internal spring, and wood treated to be slightly flexible. This allows one to recover energy from the bo's bounce, making it both a more efficient walking stick and a faster weapon in combat. (Typically these staves are etched with a hare, which perhaps either explains or is explained by the fact that Opgomon was a fan of the Hanoman melapine.) | ||

- | Like all Aligned weapon manifestations, it will last either until banished, until one no longer has the order energy to maintain it, or until one disincarnates. To banish a staff, concentrate on returning the form within it to a potential state. | ||
