a burnished witchwood runestaff
------------
The first thing that strikes you about the runestaff is the weight, which is about 2 pounds. In your best estimation, it's worth about 1,200,000 silvers.
-----------
It has a bonus of +22 from a normal runestaff, and the way it vibrates in tune with your voice tells you that it requires skill in twohanded weapons to use effectively. It also has some type of special ability, but you can't tell what yet.
The runestaff resonates with your voice, indicating that it enhances its owner in the following ways:
It provides a bonus to Elemental Lore - Fire Ranks.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 10 times.
It provides a bonus to Dexterity.
This enhancement may not be used by adventurers who have not trained 33 times.
You think that you could probably find out something more about the runestaff's enhancive properties if you tried.
The harmonics generated tell you that the runestaff helps defend the one who wields it.

The runestaff looks to have a lot of charges remaining.
You sense that the witchwood runestaff will persist after its last enhancive charge has been expended.

When compared in offensive to a +22 fireleaf runestaff these were the results it produced

AS: +96 vs DS: +302 with AvD: +17 + d100 roll: +57 = -132

Because of the +10 bonus to dexterity it offers +5 to your dex bonus and therefore +5 so your bolt AS which I demonstrate here:
You utter a light chant and raise your hands, beckoning the lesser spirits to aid you with the Fire Spirit spell...
Your spell is ready.

You gesture at a frost giant.
You hurl a roaring ball of fire at a frost giant!
AS: +305 vs DS: +211 with AvD: +59 + d100 roll: +62 = +215
... and hit for 88 points of damage!
Skin and some muscle burnt off chest.
The frost giant is stunned!
The frost giant howls in agony as the flames dance over her body!
... 40 points of damage!
Extreme heat causes a frost giant's right leg to expand and snap. That must hurt!
It is knocked to the ground!
The roaring ball of fire strikes a frost giant, blossoming into a much larger sphere of flame upon impact.
... 45 points of damage!
a frost giant takes a breath of super-heated air and expires gasping.
The frost giant cries out in cold agony one last time and dies.
The deep blue glow leaves a frost giant.
A burst of flame from your roaring ball of fire flies off and hits an arctic titan.
... 45 points of damage!
Left arm incinerated. Unfortunate.
The titan's reinforced shield falls to the ground.

Just a note on the defender portion since I'm not runestaff mechanically saavy enough the runestaff is a defender but I'm unsure on how much of the +7 it offers in offensive over a +22 runestaff is attributed to the bonus of 10 to dexterity.
