Uncommon · Quarterstaff (weapon)Its story
This slender quarterstaff is carved from pale Apotos Wind-Birch, its smooth wood marked by curling grain that resembles leaves caught in a breeze. A small green shoot grows from its crown, and loose strands of bark flutter even in still air. When swept through the air, it leaves a brief trail of drifting seed-fluff.
Lore
In Apotos, a wind-birch is said to grow toward every breeze that carries the scent of rain. Its wood is prized by those who study the wind, not for commanding storms, but for learning to listen to them.
History
Apotos wind-birch keepers traditionally shaped fallen branches into staves for travelers, gardeners, and young weather-mages. This staff was carried by a trail guide who used gentle gusts to clear paths and guide lost travelers home.
