Scant Wand of Storms (Magic Wand)

This wand was created in the capital city of Onnwal, and has been used against raiding warships from the South Province. Its creator was undoubtedly influenced by observing the furious weather in the Sea of Gearnat. The wand is usable only outdoors and creates various weather effects with the following expenditure of charges:
*Wall of fog 1
*Precipitation 1
*Gust of wind 2
*Cloudburst 2
*Chain lightning 8
*Influence weather 3
Chain lightning is similar to the wizard's spell, but with a range of 70 yards. The bolt strikes the first object targeted for 6d6 of damage (half damage if a saving throw vs. wand is successful) and arcs randomly to another object within range for 5d6 of damage, then to another for 4d6, etc. The bolt continues arcing between each object struck, ending when a sixth object has been struck for 1d6 points of damage.
Influence weather is similar to the spell control weather, but can be used only to increase cloudiness, rain/snowfall, and/or wind velocity.
Each time the wand is used, the general weather conditions over a broad area can become unexpectedly severe. The chance for and type of severe weather depends on the original effect that the caster has attempted to summon:
