Message: <blockquote data-quote="ScuroNotte" data-source="post: 7380105" data-attributes="member: 6792788">The Staff of Power and Staff of magic were used to help inspire this itemTheme Centuries ago when life was in its infancy, the gods battled amongst themselves for sovereignty. Many gods were either killed or relegated to lesser roles. The bodies of the dead gods were used to create continents or even other worlds. The blood (ichor) shed from the gods collected in deep recesses of the world. When life was created, some of these rare blood pockets were found. Originally feared for its appearance, it was found to bestow great power to those who bathed or ingested it, but the power was fleeting and required constant replenishment. Over the centuries, those with great power were able to incorporate the ichor with other ingredients to create an item that will not fade with time but remain to those who join with it. Thus the creation of Ethereal Ink. The basic powers it bestowed to beings with innate magical ability was to increase the power of the spells and make it difficult for others to resist.Forbidden Knowledge The gods themselves had the all-seeing power. Not only could they sense what was happening in the world around them, but magically see what mere mortals could never what was in the world around them. The ichor grants a mere fraction of that great power.Spell Absorption/Spells The gods either represented the essence of magic in all its forms or helped create the force of magic that mortals touch upon to have them cast spells. This allows you to be one with weave of magic and incorporate magic into yourself to use at your beck and call.The spell absorption is the same as the way it is found for the Staff of Power, but instead of recharging the staff, it recharges the sorcerer. The recharge is dependent on having a spell that only targets and the level. The Staff of Power could theoretically grant the user unlimited spells to cast from the staff. The frequency you would have a spell target only you each time is not common. I would think if there would have been concern of abuse, the Staff would have had limitations included instead of potential spell immunity with spell absorption and advantage on all saving throws feature that was also included. I don't think it would be something that would cause problems. I thank you for your concern but for now I will leave it as is at least fro now.</blockquote>
