Named after the Sanguinesti region, the staff was crafted by Lord Lowerniel Drakan himself and given to Lady Verzik Vitur as a gift. The staff has a built-in magic spell that can be used regardless of the spellbook the player is using and cannot be used to autocast any other combat spells. The spell gives no base experience and grants the player 2 Magic experience per damage dealt. In addition, the spell possesses a healing passive effect in which successful hits have a 1/6 chance of healing the wielder half the amount of hitpoints dealt to a target. This healing effect can be seen via the 'upwards spiral' on the enemy. The spell cannot be used against other players in the Wilderness. **Charging** In order to use the staff's magic spell, it must be charged with blood runes, holding up to 20,000 charges when fully charged. Each cast requires 3 blood runes, Players can uncharge the staff whenever and wherever they choose, getting all of the blood runes back.
