Spring

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 artificer 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.
