Van de Staaff

A Van de Staaff is a type of staff, primarily used as a weapon that enhances spells.
==Information==
Van de Staaves are 4-6 ft long (1.2-1.8 m) and weigh about 15 lbs (7 kg). They are made mostly of tough vulcanized rubber. They have a large metal sphere on the end.
Spells can be channeled through the staff, converting the spell to the Volt Element. Other attributes of the spell are unaffected.
Channeling a spell can be done simply by holding the staff (upright or otherwise), then focusing the spell's complixonox through the staff and out of the metal orb on the end. The spell will be fired at whomever the staff's holder wants to target, making a loud zapping noise in the process. Non-projectile spells like Tissue Tear and Chomp are converted into extremely short-range projectiles (about 6 in/15 cm of range).
Van de Staaves also grant access to the spell Charge Shot (which is always Volt Element). The wielder can use Charge Shot by holding down the trigger to charge and releasing the trigger to fire, using up the staff's battery.
When using a Charge Shot from a Van de Staaff, it always fires out of the metal orb in the direction that the staff is pointing, so the wielder must directly aim the staff. Van de Staaves have a battery capacity of 6 Charge Shots before they must be recharged using an outlet or with Volt Element spells.
==Trivia==
*You can charge a Van de Staaff by shooting the battery on the bottom with Volt Element spells. More powerful spells charge it faster.
*You can charge a Van de Staaff by shooting it with another Van de Staaff, or with itself through creative use of conductive materials.
