Item: Baton of the Fallen

This pale shaft of wood has skulls and the mournful faces of the dead carved into its surface. Cold to the touch, it brings a slight chill to the air and smells of freshly disturbed earth.

Effect You plant the baton into the ground, the soil softly parting to allow it to be solidly seated. Doing so summons a cloud of ghostly spirits in a @Template[type:burst|distance:30]. All creatures within the cloud become Concealed, and all creatures outside the cloud become concealed to creatures within it. The spirits deal 8d6 void damage to each creature who enters or begins their turn in the cloud (DC 35 Basic Fortitude). You are unaffected by the cloud. This effect lasts 1 minute or ends if an adjacent creature spends an Interact action to knock the baton over.
