Fusion Staff (AoC Universe)

The Fusion Staff is a supermagical device forged by the Constellar to replace the wayward Aesir Lucithel after he walked out on the angiris the first time.

Lore
The Fusion Staff contains pieces of the magical amulents worn the Aesir. When these pieces were fused together, it created a supermagical device of immense power, which was abused, to great effect, by the Highfather Olyrin, who claimed to have "obliterated" the forces of the Burning Hells in a short series of overwhelming strikes. In reality, he had merely destroyed their corporeal forms and returned their souls to the Underworld where they would eventually respawn, and at the same time, exhausted the Fusion Staff. Despite being low on power, Olyrin used the Staff one last time to summon Lucithel back to the Pantheon when the severed head of Sachael, the messenger (who had been sent to collect him) flew past his visage.

By the time Lucithel had brought the Armies of Hell to bear against the gates of Heaven, the Fusion Staff was depleted and needed a recharge, so Olyrin commanded Anariel and Duterius to ward off the demons while the gods readied the staff. Lucithel undid their plans by sneaking round the back of the High Heavens and entering the Holy Sanctuary. Ordered to retreat by the gods, for he was transgressing "holy ground" with his "all-defiling" presence, Lucithel brought Elva to her knees with a single pyroburst. Furious, Olyrin ordered an all-out assault on the trouble Aesir, who defeated them with relative ease. Though he succeeded in sundering their bodies, he could not sear their souls, nor could he corrupt them. Seeking the monumental energies of the Fusion Staff so he could put an end to all that was holy, Lucithel reached for it, but the gods' souls coalesced into the staff, rendering it useless.

Furious, Lucithel smashed the staff with a helblast, hoping to capture its keystones so he could corrupt those instead, then use them to obliterate the old gods. His helbast ended up knocking the keystones, with the souls of the gods trapped inside, into orbit and out of his grasp, prompting the formation of the Demonic Legion to scour Creation in search of the stones.
