Blackfire Rod: Like a corrupted Metamagic Rod which holds soul larvae. Each use consumes one larva, and has the effect of applying the Violated and Empowered Metamagic Feats to a spell with the [Fire] descriptor. Unlike a standard Metamagic Rod, the use of this Rod is not limited to a fixed number of daily uses. Re-loading the rod with larvae takes one full-round action per larva and attracts an AoO.
Lesser Blackfire Rod: 35,000 gp
Median Blackfire Rod: 75,500 gp
Greater Blackfire Rod: 170,000 gp
Blazing Rod: Shaped from the horn of an ascended unicorn, this ivory Metamagic Rod allows its weilder to "emblaze" certain spells 3/day. An "emblazed" spell stuns Undead within its area for 1 round (no save), affects ethereal and shadow creatures at full potency, and all damage done by the spell becomes of type Holy. Any spell with the [Good], [Fire] or [Light] descriptor can be "emblazed".
Lesser Blazing Rod: 14,000 gp
Median Blazing Rod: 54,000 gp
Greater Blazing Rod: 121,500 gp
