Description
The top of this magic quarterstaff is shaped like a spider. It deals an extra 1d6 poison damage on a hit when used to make a weapon attack.
Spells: The staff has 10 charges. While holding it, you can expend the requisite number of charges to cast one of the following spells from the staff: spider climb (1 charge) or web (2 charges; spell save DC 15). The staff regains 1d6 + 4 expended charges daily at dusk. If you expend the staff's last charge, roll a d20. On a 1, the staff crumbles to dust and is destroyed.
Versatile: This weapon can be used with one or two hands. A damage value in parentheses appears with the property—the damage when the weapon is used with two hands to make a melee attack.
Arcane Focus: An arcane focus is a special item designed to channel the power of arcane spells. A sorcerer, warlock, or wizard can use such an item as a spellcasting focus.
Proficiency: simple, staff, quarterstaff Source: Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk p. 220, Lost Mine of Phandelver p. 53
