Staff of Souls

Weapon

Very Rare Requires Attunement

This staff can be wielded as a magic quarterstaff that grants a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it. While you hold it, you gain a +2 bonus to spell attack rolls.   The staff has 10 charges, which are used to fuel the spells within it. With the staff in hand, you can use your action to cast one of the following spells from the staff if the spell is on your class’s spell list: Spirit Shroud (2 charge) or Rackthan's Blood Fire (2 charges). No components are required.   By expending 6 charges of the staff you can use its Soul Suck ability. Being hit twice by the Staff of the Soul causes immense pain in the target as their soul is sucked out. They must make a Wisdom saving throw DC 16 or take 10d8 Necrotic damage. If they take more than half of their health in damage then they immediately drop to zero and must make death saving throws.   The staff regains 1d6 + 4 expended charges each day at dawn. If you expend the staff’s last charge, roll a d20. On a 1, the staff shatters and is destroyed.
