Wand

Wands are magical devices. They allow non-wizard characters to cast spells and wizards to cast spells they do not know. Wands have a specific number of charges. When all charges have been used, the wand cannot be used for magic anymore if not recharged.

The purpose of a given wand is not known before it is identified: they only appear by description, such as an ivory wand. Without an identify spell, wands can be identified by enscribing with them or zapping them.
