The Staff of Withering is the Lycanthrope quest artifact in NetHack Plus and SLASH 6. It is also the quest artifact for the SlashTHEM version of the Lunatic role, which has a quest adapted from the former Lycanthrope quest.
Its base item is a quarterstaff. The Staff's attack can drain life from its targets ("The Staff of Withering draws the life from <target>!").
When carried, the Staff grants cold resistance. When invoked, it provides a boost in spell energy, similar to the Mitre of Holiness.
