"It's a uniquely peculiar staff. There's no way to control what it does, as far as I'm aware, and it can do just about anything. I've seen it turn trolls into crabs, crabs into Dremora, bandits into sweetrolls, and cultists into cheese. Even had this one unlucky fellow I encountered turn into a shower of coins and scatter on the ground. I've seen it produce bursts of flame, bolts of lightning. I've seen it mend grievous wounds, much to my chagrin. I'm not sure why I use it when it's so reliable, but... magic that transforms one thing into another is very unusual, and absolutely fascinating."
