Staff of Command: This device has three functions, only two of which will be effective if the wielder is a wizard; all three work when the staff is in a priest's hands. The three functions are:

Human influence: This power duplicates that of the ring of the same name. Each suggestion or charge draws one charge from the staff.

Mammal control/animal control:This power functions only as mammal control (as the ring of that name) when the staff is used by a wizard. In the hands of a priest it is a staff of animal control (as the potion of that name, all types of animals listed). Either use drains one charge per turn or fraction thereof.

Plant control: This function duplicates that of the potion of the same name, but for each 10-square-foot ares of plants controlled for one turn or lass, one charge is used. A wizard cannot control plants at all.

The staff can be recharged.
