This staff can be wielded as a magic Quarterstaff that grants a +3 bonus to attack rolls and damage rolls made with it.

The staff has 10 charges. When you hit with a melee attack using it, you can expend up to 3 charges. For each charge you expend, the target takes an extra dice:1d6|noform|noparens|avg (1d6) Force damage.

Regaining Charges

The staff regains dice:1d6+4|noform|noparens|avg (1d6 + 4) expended charges daily at dawn. If you expend the last charge, roll dice:1d20|noform|noparens|avg (1d20). On a 1, the staff becomes a nonmagical Quarterstaff.
