Staff of the Fates (Magic Staff)

The staff of the fates can be used as a staff of striking, but it also has magical powers that the user can call upon. Every time the holder uses the staff in this fashion, his or her Intelligence score suffers a temporary decrease. The device goes inert (and no point loss occurs) if the user tries to call upon a power that would reduce the Intelligence to less than 9. Lost Intelligence points are regained at the rate of 1 each day, by resting or sleeping for at least four hours. Fractional lost points are disregarded for purposes of Intelligence-related abilities: for instance, a character with a score of makes Intelligence Checks as if his or her score was 16. The following powers can be employed by the user once a day:
Powers costing 2 points: Timestop, tempus fugit, magic mirror (unlimited range and duration), contact other plane (no chance of failure or insanity).
Powers costing points: reincarnation, sending, truename, geas.
Powers costing 1 point: divination, true seeing, find the path, word of recall.
Powers costing : all cantrips and all 1st-level priest spells.
