Random Magic Rod

Tuning Rod

The rod of tuning is a powerful magic device that serves to ward against outsiders in addition to its mundane function.
Bards, clerics of Milil, and others who rely on song, value these items for their ability to sound any note desired by the wielder. To do so, the wielder need only strike the rod lightly against any hard surface (or with a hard object) to cause a pure, clear note to sound forth from the rod. This note is audible to anyone within 120 feet (subject to intervening barriers).
In addition, the rod functions as a focus for any song-based or sonic spell. No other focus is necessary to cast such spells.
The rod's 'wielder also has access to more powerful magic as well. Once per day, the rod of tuning can sound forth a single note that is anathema to outsiders. This note acts as a banishment spell against up to 28 HD of creatures. This note affects any outsiders within 30 feet of the wielder. Treat the note as having three aspects the creature hates, fears, or otherwise opposes, granting the wielder a +3 on his level check to overcome the creatures' spell resistance, if any, and requiring each of the creatures to make a Will save (DC 26).
In addition, once per day the rod can sound forth a note that acts as a holy word spell (DC 20). This function affects any creatures of evil alignment within 30 feet of the wielder. These powers are song-based magical effects and may be countered by a bard's countersong ability or any magic that prevents such effects (silence, for example).
