This is a shortish, thick
wand about 1 1/2 feet in length
with an exceptionally sharp
point on one end and a trigger mechanism
built into the opposite
end, which is blunt.
The wand is usable by
any character except one
of the cleric class, and can be activated in a
single segment. When the
thick end is grasped firmly and the trigger
pressed, the tip of the
wand becomes the equivalent of a dagger + 1
and the rest of the shaft
blossoms into a round shield of buckler size
having a + 1 magic
value.
The whole becomes equal
to a spiked buckler + 1.
Because of its dweomer,
it can be employed by magic-users,
but no spells can be cast
when it is in buckler form unless the
possessor is a multi-classed
character with fighter abilities in addition
to magic-user abilities.
A thief who employs the wand's powers cannot
climb walls or perform other
abilities requiring the use of his or her
hands while holding the
device.
