[PeeWee]

To put those Chrysoberyl gems to use...( and yes overpowered against the appropriate npcs, not all)

Alas! We have found the golem that has the last part to Alkabhar's Riddle. Years of research has led us here. We have found the hidden Golem! It was a tough battle and three times have we searched the area. Lucky for our experienced mage friend, if not without him, we would never have found the secret. It is quite dank here even though we are in fair numbers. The smell of decay lingers as we set up fires. I can not stress enough how much I hate the smell and this place. I want to move as soon as possible but the others decided to post camp for the night. There is no telling what other dangers lurk about. Passing that red dragon was tough as it.

We have the scroll, and all 8 chrysoberyl gems. We will travel tomorrow to Alkabhar's old place of residence. There we shall find out if this was a hoax or if this is indeed true; I will dream of the Planar Staff tonight.

If all 8 magical gems and Alkabhar's scroll are placed within a magical chest of Al's old home, the magical lock will detach itself and release the Planar Staff.

-description-
The Planar Staff is the last piece documented in Alkabhar's journals. The great mage travelled the planes throughout most of his career. The "club" glows bright green once danger is detected. It is said that the weapon itself is made from a combination of years of magical rune structuring and rare chrysoberyl gems. In order to obtain this item, one must spend time to gather the right components as if following the great mage's steps.

This weapon kinda sucks in dmg against anything else as you can see, but is powerful against demonic beings. The speed is slow, but given enough time, the weapon should prove effective.

Intent was to introduce quested items. This item seems cool to quest for if one knew where to start. I thought of imprisoning an Iron Golem in Firkraag's dungeon. Upon casting a freedom spell in the area, you would talk to the golem and then fight it. This would be a Golem that could summon other golems hasted to help protect Alkabhar's legacy( dead golem has scroll). The magical chest would be found in the Temple District. Do we all know of the compound yet? Yes a trip back with all the right components will net this lil thing. The hard part is being able to find all the chrysoberyl gems and the quest starter.

Ideas are welcomed.
