Powerball Wand, something we are all know and luv. I noticed the particular energy source wasn’t in the master list of energy types. Is the energy type used for this wand exclusive to the class/race of Ancient?
“POWERBALLS - 1 CHARGE MAKES A 10d10 POWERBALL (NO MAGIC RESISTANCE, SEE FIREBALL FOR RADIUS). 100 CHARGES MAXIMUM(MED ANCIENT)”

it is Untyped Raw Energy - which is why its unblockable. you could think of it as the common power source that fuels EVERY energy type, if you’d like
its beyond difficult to harness, for Ancients or Powermasters - as the only effective way to capture it is via the race of nearly extinct dragons known as the Purple Power Dragons… something i’m sure you’ll remember !Ancient Powerball Wands were carved from the bones or teeth of said dragons - one of the only things that can somehow resist its destructive power. you MAY (ahem) find a few enclaves of them floating around the Magnesti homeworld, along with a vast number of other long-extinct dragons - as Zap is using several of his moons as Draconic Incubators to encourage the re-emergence of Magic on a number of dead-magic and low-magic worlds in other spheres across the 'verse

@dwarf /blink /blink …. Ok Zap that is a lot to unpack while stepping thru my stargate … ahem plane. I’ll come back to that, but it will require beer. I do very much remember purple power dragons, do you remember the Xenophopic Purple Power Dragon Daren befriended. And I say that loosely, I always felt like he begrudgingly tolerated Daren.

indeed - he became the first Draconic Powermaster
the begrudging thing was his way of keeping you at arms length, as he did NOT like visitors interrupting his research… still, you were probably the closest thing he’s had to an ally in millenia ! -

You know this captured the Triplets interest, as i’m sure they run across dead magic/low magic worlds, normally they just wave as they pass by… it may make it worth their while to stop now.
