The eye sockets of the skull atop this ages-old rod glow bright with magical fire, and its jaws clatter and gnash constantly. It contains a spell of fiery destruction that takes the shape of a shrieking skull. When the skull detonates upon its targets, thick tendrils of green-black flame swirl around them, turning everything they touch to ash.

Bound Spell (Power Level 4). If cast successfully, this item casts a magic missile with a range of 18 " that inflicts D6 Strength 4 hits with the Flaming Attacks special rule. In addition, if the target unit moves in the Movement phase, flees or pursues during its next turn, every model in the unit suffers an immediate Strength 4 hit with the Flaming Attacks special rule, after which the spell's effects end. If the unit does not move the spell ends at the start of the caster's next Magic phase. Any unit taking one or more unsaved Wounds from this spell must immediately take a Panic test.
