-A '''staff of power''' is a [[magical staff]] which contains additional MP for you to expend when casting spells. It can hold 5 + (40% of your max MP) MP , and will regenerate MP independent of your actual MP pool so long as you wield it. Unwielding it, however, will cause it to rapidly bleed out MP, rendering it useless soon after you switch weapons. So long as it's wielded, however, it is effectively a large boost to your MP pool and MP regeneration rates.

 The staff can also be used in combat, functioning as a +0, +0 [[staff]]. Unlike some other magical staves, it provides no magical  combat effects, but you can still improve your damage output, accuracy, and attack speed through training [[Fighting]] and [[Staves]].
-The proportional MP bonus of this staff considers only your innate max MP, ignoring such sources as rings of power, [[mutation]]s, and [[divine vigour]].  Note that the final max MP given by all non-innate sources, including this staff, is subject to a stepdown. Specifically, any max MP over 50 is halved. For example, this means a character with 45 innate max MP who wields this staff will have 59 max MP, instead of 68.
