Tuesday Magic Item - Cane of Candy

“Uncle Nobble, Uncle Nobble!” shouted the children as the older man made his way into the common room.

“Be patent children,” he chided with a smile, “there will be enough for everyone.”

He made his way to one of the central tables.  His niece Cember spread a table cloth over it.  He raised his cane over it and said a word and pieces of candy rained down from his walking stick to cover the table cloth.  “Enjoy all!” he said with a broad smile.

Cane of Candy

These canes feature an ornate handle, often carved in festive scenes and a thin metal arm though this often cannot be seen as the length of the arm will be covered by crystalized sugar.

With a word, the crystalized sugar will fall away into 12d12 pieces of candy, ready for consumption.  Left unobserved overnight, the cane will again be fully candied.  If a piece of fruit or a pinch of spice is left against the cane at night, the candy will take on that flavor and color.

Used as a weapon, treat the cane as a club, but on a critical hit, a piece of the sugar candy has become lodged in the wound where it inflicts causing one point of bleed damage on the next round.
