Turmoil

Turmoil is a weapon that belonged to Ariks Eshteross, who described it as his "trusted weapon". In anticipation of his death, he bequeathed it to Bells Hells, and it passed into their ownership upon his murder. Chetney Pock O'Pea assumed that Turmoil is the silver cane-and-scythe that Eshteross carried with him (see for more information), but as of the end of, this is not confirmed. <!--! Turmoil is a weapon that can be transformed between a cane and a scythe. It was the "trusted weapon" of Ariks Eshteross, who was seen with it at all times throughout Campaign 3. In anticipation of his death, he bequeathed it to Bells Hells, and it passed into their ownership upon his murder.

Description
Turmoil is a long, silver, solid metal cane with a heavy ball at the top. It can be transformed into a beautiful silver scythe with a long, thin, curved blade.

As a cane, it is mechanically a quarterstaff. It can also cast Zone of Truth with a DC of at least 16; Eshteross cast the spell by twisting or adjusting the metal ball.

History
Ariks Eshteross considered Turmoil his "trusted weapon". He carried it with him at all times and used it as a walking stick. It first appeared in Campaign 3, unnamed, when he wielded it against Bells Hells to test their capability and mettle. He also cast its Zone of Truth spell in his subsequent conversation with them. It was seen with him every time they visited, and it was once involved in disarming a trap on a door in his manor. He was able to bring it with him into the party held by the Chandei Quorum, despite a prohibition on weapons at the event, and used it to attack Olly to help Dorian Storm leave with his brother, Cyrus Wyvernwind.

Eshteross wrote a letter bequeathing Turmoil to Bells Hells in anticipation of his death. He wielded Turmoil against Otohan Thull's Gray Assassins after they infiltrated his manor, ultimately dropping it in the upstairs hallway before dying in his bedroom. Chetney Pock O'Pea nearly tripped over it while searching for Eshteross the next morning. Chetney found and read the letter and, correctly assuming the cane to be Turmoil, picked it up as he left the manor. Orym confirmed the presence of a resurrection-preventing toxin in Eshteross' blood on Turmoil.
