Experience GP Point Value Sale Value Wand of Disintigration (any) 9000 60,000 Wand of Disintigration: Range: 10" This wand is a 12 inch long, 1 inch diameter piece of stone carved with runes. It does not use charges, but draws power from its wielder. Each use draws six levels of spells from its user if the user is of a spell using class, of course spells lost to the wand can be re-memorized. If the user is a non-spell using class then the wand takes six life levels. For example, if a magic user employed the wand but had only 3 spell levels memorized, he would lose those spells and lose 3 life levels. Life levels lost to the wand are lost permanently and can only be recovered by working your way back up by gaining experience. The wand can attack one creature or 1" cubic area of non-living matter per shot, and acts just as the sixth level magic user spell disintigrate. Operation takes one segment. No command words are neccessary, the user simply wills the wand to operate. Level Recommendation: Greater than sixth, if you want them to survive any experimentation they may do with it.
