Wands

Wands are rechargeable items that will cast a bound spell when used. A creature wishing to use a wand must know how to read by having learned the Literacy: Common talent.

Wands can have up to 6 charges depending on the type of the wand. A wand that reaches 0 charges becomes depleted, or in case of a blessed wand, rolls a D6 and on a score of 5+ the wand receives D3 charges, and on any other score the wand loses its blessing and gains 1 charge.

Wands have a power level, or mastery modifier, that ranges from 0 to 5 and determines how powerful the wands' effects are. Novice's wands have a mastery modifier of 0 or 1, adept's wands have a mastery modifier of 2 or 3, and master's wands have a mastery modifier of 4 or 5.
