Abyss Rod

This simple looking metal rod is just over 2" in diameter, about 2ft long, and is immensely heavy. It functions as a mace (1d6 bludgeoning damage) if used for attacking.

Properties

• Characters with strength less than 14 attack with disadvantage.  Cannot be wielded by those with strength less than 10.
• There is no bonus to hit but any hit adds +6  bludgeoning damage for the weight alone.
• On an attack role of 19 or 20 an enemy will be knocked prone and require a Con save to avoid being stunned.
• If rod falls more than 10' it gathers enormous, magically enhanced kinetic energy.  For every 10' the rod falls it will create a 5' hole 12" in diameter.  The rod can be recalled slowly from the bottom of the hole with concentration.

The rods kinetic power is situationally useful and perhaps it can be used in interesting ways by creative players.
