Dowsing Stick

A dowser at work, from Pierre le Brun, Histoire critique des pratiques superstitieuses, (Jean-Frederic Bernard, 1733–1736). It is unclear whether or not the dowser is using a diving rod or the lesser known Scrimometer. Dowsing Stick

At a Glance

A Dowsing Stick looks like an ordinary rod suitable for the Dowsing spell, but it carries the locating magic within itself.

Legacy Rules

The stick can cast Dowsing at will.

Using the Stick

The item does not create a new form of detection: what it can locate, how quickly it works and what can interfere with it all come from the linked Dowsing spell. Its advantage is repeated access without expending the normal spell resource.

Edition Note

This is a legacy wondrous item. Use the spell and item-creation rules of its original rules context unless deliberately converting it to another edition.

Caster Level: 3rd; Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, Dowse Market Price: 300 GP
