It's a pleasure to grant wishes that are practical in nature, rather than greedy ones."[/COLOR] [gm] Respen, before this point, your staff was a normal (non-magical, Masterwork) Quarterstaff, which had been enchanted to provide always-active spell effects. It is now a +1 Quarterstaff while in staff form. It continues to provide its previous enchantments. Upon speaking a command word (as a swift action) the staff can change its shape, to become a +2 Composite Longbow, set for whatever Strength score its wielder currently possesses. While the bow is held, it continues to provide its normal, always-active spell effects. Upon speaking an additional command word (as a swift action) the bow can revert back to staff form. Please note that if the command words cannot be spoken (if the wielder is in a zone of [B][I]Silence[/I][/B], or underwater, or in some similar environment that prevents speech) then the staff cannot be made to change form. [/gm] [B]Prince Alorum says,[/B] [COLOR=red]"For this wish, I shall require something of you; it need not be valuable or unique. I require something of yours, anything, which has sentimental value to you, and can readily be identified as belonging to you."[/COLOR] [gm] As per our LINE app discussion, Respen agrees, and provides Prince Alorum with his favorite, well-worn, yet well-kept, travelling cloak.
