Whenever Sturmjarl is sighted, he can be seen leaning on this gnarled and twisted staff. For those who lack the gift of the witch-sight, the staff appears as a knotted piece of wood, suitable as a walking aid but nothing more. To the men and women who are able to perceive the polychrome Winds of Chaos the Staff of Thunder radiates a blinding power. The Staff attracts the magical currents, which billow and swirl around Sturmjarl, veiling him and those nearby.
