A zealot staff 's color, iconography, and materials vary depending on the faith it's dedicated to. An Iomedaean staff might be forged of gold and shaped like an ornamental sword, while a Lamashtan one could instead be made of blackened iron depicting monstrous faces. Used as a weapon, the staff is a +3 greater striking staff . The staff represents vehement support of the deity to whom the staff is dedicated, punishing defiance. When you prepare this staff, if you don't worship its deity, you become Drained 1 until your next daily preparations.
