This + weapon was rescued from Thingol's treasury, and it is rumoured that its + wielder need not fear dragons or other fell beings of the Dark. + +The Quarterstaff 'Nar-i-vagil' + Named for a fiery star and set with gems of great worth binding mystic + virtues of protection and thought. + +The Quarterstaff 'Eriril' + The radiant golden staff of an Istari of legend, this wizard's companion + grants keen sight and the knowledge of many hidden things. + +The Quarterstaff of Olorin + A staff tall and sturdy, with rough-hewn runes that invoke the element of + Earth, and which strikes down all creatures who live in the shadow of + mountains. + +The Mace of Disruption 'Nguruthos' + A weapon so massive it seems beyond the strength of mortals, yet you feel + the might of giants within you as you heft it. As you grip the handle of + ebony and steel, coronas of fire blaze and mighty spells to preserve magic + activate around you. It is named 'Fear of Death' - you wield the Fear of + Dragons and the Despair of the Undead. + +The Lucerne Hammer 'Turmil' + Wielded by the High Priest of Meneltarma, this great mace gleams coldly as + though moonlit, and it can strike as mighty a blow spiritually as + physically. + +The Whip of Gothmog + With this unbearably bright whip of flame, the Balrog Gothmog has become + known for never having lost in combat. + +The Whip 'Lasher' + A powerful whip that is deadly against orcs. It poisons your foes and is + said to go "snicker snack". + +The Ball-and-Chain of Fundin Bluecloak + The weapon of one of the great dwarven priests, with powers to preserve + body, soul and enchantments, and the bane of those who seek life beyond + death. + +The Lead-Filled Mace 'Dolcrist' + This mighty bludgeon brings destruction to all around it, and is the bane + of dragons and magic. Skull-cleaver (or head-cleaver) it is called. + +The Quarterstaff of Radagast + Rumored to be a gift from Yavanna to Radagast the Brown, this + plain-seeming oak staff shields its bearer against the elements and helps + him fight off malicious beasts (such as the goblins' Warg-steeds). It + also grants exceptional insight into Nature magic, and can even cause + trees or healing herbs to spring forth at the bearer's command. + +The Mage Staff of Saruman + A white quarterstaff that faintly gleams a pale white, it once belonged to + one of the most powerful beings on Middle-Earth, Saruman the White. + Saruman fell into shadow, and the staff left him during his travels. As + you wield it, you become much more attuned to magic. + +The Quarterstaff of Thranduil + The carven oak staff of the King of the Woodland Realm, this weapon is a + fighter's best friend in a forest. + +The Mage Staff of Forochel + A shaft of pure, invincible crystal cut from the heart of one of the great + glaciers ringing the Ice-Bay of Forochel. While you hold it, your mind feels + as clear as the winter sky. + -- cgit v1.2.3
