Caranthir's Navigator Staff

“Can a magician kill a man by magic?” Lord Wellington asked Strange.

Strange frowned. He seemed to dislike the question. “I suppose a magician might,” he admitted, “but a gentleman never could.”

― Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell

Certainly, such was not the problem of mages of Wild Hunt. Much like the source of his magic, Caranthir's staff was forged and enchanted with cold malice, only matched by the frost brought about through his portals. The staff presented here is redesign of the original, meant for modest-sized mages. 

This is adds the shepherd's stick as a weapon with augments towards sign intensity. As a mage staff, this works visually well with menschfeind13's Magic Spells for Signs, particularly with "The Sword Ring" spell from that mod, which was the inspiration for this mod. The glow effect on the cane when casting quen, like in the image tab, is achieved with the "Conductor of Magic" perk.
