That wasn't the Retributive Strike I was expecting!

Quote

Staff of Power: The staff of power is a very potent magical item, with offensive and defensive abilities. The powers below cost one charge each:

 

continual light

magic missile or lightning bolt

ray of enfeeblement

levitation

cone of cold or fireball

 

The following powers drain two charges each:

shield, 5-foot radius

globe of invulnerability

paralyzation ray from the end of the staff extending in a cone 40 feet long and 20 feet wide at the far end

 

The DM may assign alternate powers by random die roll. The wielder of a staff of power gains a +2 bonus to Armor Class and saving throws. He may use the staff to smite opponents. It strikes as a +2 magical weapon and inflicts 1d6+2 points of damage; if one charge is expended, the staff causes double damage, but two charges do not cause triple damage. A staff of power can be broken for a retributive strike (see staff of the magi). The staff can be recharged.

Retributive strike is a breaking of the staff. It must be purposeful and declared by the wizard wielding it. When this is done all levels of spell energy in the staff are released in a globe of 30-foot radius. All creatures within 10 feet of the broken staff suffer hit points of damage equal to eight times the number of spell levels of energy in the rod (1 to 25), those between 10 feet to 20 feet take 6 x levels, and those 20 feet to 30 feet distant take 4 x levels. Successful saving throws versus magic indicate only one-half damage is sustained. The wizard breaking the staff has a 50% chance of traveling to another plane of existence, but if he does not, the explosive release of spell energy totally destroys him. This staff and the staff of power are the only magical items capable of a retributive strike.
