Forged from the metal of the Lakes of Molten Iron on the Plain of Infinite Portals (the topmost of the Infinite Layers of the Abyss), this staff looks like nothing more than a particularly long and slightly twisted iron rod, with dents and nicks along its entire length. It gives off an odor of burnt metal, like that in a foundry, and always leaves a dark stain on its wielder’s hands. A staff of abyssal iron allows use of the following spells:
