[edit] Long Description

This staff was obviously constructed by a master artificer.  Only the greatest of master smiths are capable of manipulating octiron in such a fanciful and cunning way.  The pole itself has been smelted with octiron filigree of a shade darker than the base material and scrolls throughout the complete shaft.  The foot of this masterpiece flares out to resemble a small anvil while the head has been constructed in the shape of a smith's hammer.  Either side of the hammer depicts a scene; one from the shop of a dwarfen blacksmith and the other from the laboratory of a master artificer.
One of the scenes on the flat surface of the hammer continues to play out and smoke rises from the forge as the embers burn readily.

[edit] Appraises As

The artificer's staff is about seven feet long and three inches wide. It is made of octiron and could be used as a weapon of type polearm.
