This elegant staff is carved from a single piece of yew wood and is said to have been blessed by an ancient archdruid. It resonates with a deep, harmonious tone when struck. While attuned to the Yaostaff, you gain the following benefits:

- **Yew's Resilience:** While holding the staff, you have resistance to necrotic damage and advantage on saving throws against death effects and disease.
- **Druidic Echo:** The staff has 5 charges. You can use an action to expend 1 charge to cast *shillelagh* without expending a spell slot. The staff regains 1d4+1 expended charges daily at dawn.
- **Nature's Whisper:** Once per long rest, you can use the staff to cast *speak with animals* or *speak with plants* without expending a spell slot.

*Special: If you are a Druid, the Yaostaff also allows you to use Wild Shape one additional time between long rests.*
