A description of what Systres Guardian staves should look like

In my youth, I patrolled Gonfalon Bay, ensuring that all remained safe. During that time, I grew to appreciate the quality and utility of the gear provided by the watch, designed by old man Canis. Cussed, hungry, and mean … but my fellow street soldiers were never left wanting.

As he always said. "Looking impressive is a secondary concern, beef-wit. But it can be useful."

STAVES
The double pointed design on our regulation staves was an in-joke from Canis. I guess an old friend of his used to be a mage … but not a very good one. So the old man whipped this up as a way to deter thugs from sticking a shank in his pal.

Think about it: Do you really want someone to poke this into your shoulder, then twist? For the more mystically inclined, lightning or fire or whatever crackling through the staff makes those double points even more alarming.
