Description
A gnarled black staff alive with the soft chittering of unseen vermin, its bark hollowed by countless tunnels. The staff has 10 charges and regains 1d6+4 daily at dawn. While holding it, an attuned caster can use an action to expend a charge and produce a swarm of insects within 30 feet, dealing piercing damage to any creature in a 10-foot cube. The wielder can also expend charges to cast giant insect or insect plague. If the last charge is spent, roll a d20: on a 1, the staff dissolves into a writhing swarm and is destroyed.
