In [[Varushka]] a potent artefact known as the ''Brother's Arm'' appears several times. It is most commonly mentioned in the tales of Johann of Gristlev who used it extensively while fighting alongside his elder brother Gustav against the three powerful Mora who had stolen in to their town. The historicity of the Gristlev brothers is debated - in some parts of Varushka they are considered [[Paragons and Exemplars|Exemplars]] of [[Courage]] and [[Loyalty]], but the [[Imperial Synod|Synod]] has never recognised them as actual people. If the actual brother's arm could be found, it would go some way towards helping to prove these two men actually existed.. | |||

Description
These rods allow a magician who fights on the front lines to heal themselves and an ally without needing to leave the fray. They are equally useful to the dedicated battlefield healer who risks being hurt while getting to their patients, and to the war witch who fights alongside the other nobles of their house.
In Varushka a potent artefact known as the Brother's Arm appears several times. It is most commonly mentioned in the tales of Johann of Gristlev who used it extensively while fighting alongside his elder brother Gustav against the three powerful Mora who had stolen in to their town. The historicity of the Gristlev brothers is debated - in some parts of Varushka they are considered Exemplars of Courage and Loyalty, but the Synod has never recognised them as actual people. If the actual brother's arm could be found, it would go some way towards helping to prove these two men actually existed..
