This rod has its top carved to resemble the head of an angry deity.
In addition to giving the bearer a deflection bonus to Armor Class (+1 to +5, depending on the type of rod shown on the table below), a rod of fury allows a spellcaster to increase the effectiveness of one spell of 6th level or lower per day, altering it as if it were under the effect of the Empower Spell feat. Activating this ability is a free action and does not affect the spell level or casting time of the altered spell (even for sorcerers and other spontaneous casters).
