Description
This wand is made from a sprig of holly and exudes an unmistakable aura of cheer from it. It has 10 holly berries that each contain 1 charge and are used to fuel the wand's properties. When you expend a charge from a berry, it wilts away and disappears. The wand regrows 1d6 + 4 missing berries daily at dawn. While you're attuned to the wand, you gain a +2 bonus to Charisma checks and saving throws.
Spells: While holding the wand, you can use an action to expend 1 or more of its charges to cast one of the following spells (save DC 16) from it: create food and water (3 charges), goodberry (1 charge), Tasha's hideous laughter (1 charge), or irresistible dance (6 charges).
Dashing through the Snow: While holding the wand, you can use a bonus action to expend 2 of its charges to take the Dash action. When you do, you ignore difficult terrain created by ice or snow. This movement doesn't provoke opportunity attacks.
Festive: As an action, you can wave this wand over up to 1 gallon of water and expend 1 charge to transform the liquid into a weak, but pleasant-tasting, alcoholic beverage.
If you expend the wand's last charge, roll a d20. On a 1, all but one of the wand's leaves and berry stems wither away and die. When this happens, the wand becomes a common wand that does not require attunement, but has only 1 charge. This common version of the wand retains only the festive property of its original form and regains the expended charge daily at dawn.
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.
