Hanoma has afforded you the knowledge that Wandslinging was not invented by Clyde, but rediscovered by him. It has a history of centuries, at least, for this form is the product of the Aligned urga known as Tutor, best known for authoring The Proverbs of Hell. Tutor protected Hanoma fiercely for the duration of his lifespan. His motives are lost to history, but it is known that he maintained a hermetic existence far in the Northlands, and would appear and suddenly whenever Hanoma was in danger, and vanish shortly thereafter, having developed or discovered an arcane system of runes that allowed such translocation.

Indeed, he is said to have learned many magicks in addition to Aligned forms, including daemonic and even demonic pacts and enchantments. This is perhaps why the wand conjured by this form bears a certain at least daemonic element: if one whispers any of the affirmations of the Wandslinger Litany to it while wielding it, it will recognize one and draw upon one's spirit to produce various effects. (It in other respects behaves like a normal wand: it can be recharged in a holster or by a wand battery, and so on.)

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 wand, concentrate on returning the form within it to a potential state.

Usage

Spoiler warning: information below includes details, such as solutions to puzzles or quest procedures, that you may prefer to discover on your own.

Whispering "I aim with my eye" to the actualized wand provides skill boosts that increase your accuracy, whispering "I shoot with my mind" to it recharges it, and whispering "I kill with my heart" boosts its power. The Proverbs of Hell are also relevant. In real life, they are part of William Blake's The Marriage of Heaven and Hell; the Proverbs are available within Lost Souls in book form for your easy reference. Whispering any of them to the wand in Archaen will change the type of energy it emits. The Proverbs of Hell are listed below, separated by damage type. The available damage types are:
