The Staff of Nicator is a legendary relic that was first gifted to Nicator, founder of the Seleucarian Empire, by the Logos. It was later wielded by Catarin deSangre in the Wars of Succession. Since then, the Staff has served as the prize awarded to the champion of each semicentennial celebration of the Empire's fall.
Physically, the Staff spans a length of about six feet and is carved from the finest golden wood. The head is adorned by a distinctly unique gemstone, replete with myriad facets, bringing the weight of the staff to five pounds. The abilities granted by the Staff of Nicator are ever-changing and vary according to the person who wields it at any given time. It is said that these powers work by magnifying the extant qualities of the Staff's wielder. Some examples of its powers have been noted in the annals of history, but for modern bearers, such reports are rumour and hearsay at best. Even the bearers do not always discover the powers they have been granted, and, on this topic, the Garden remains pointedly silent.
