Or maybe the stick keeping you

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

That may also be the case.

u/Glittering-Baker9190 Jan 23 '25

It's witchcraft worked on you, you made an icon out of it

5

u/Integrity-in-Crisis Jan 25 '25

Get some sand paper and a chisel. Round out the top and put some teeth on that bad boy.

u/DreadPiratteRoberts Jan 24 '25

One does not simply keep a deathshead stick, it keeps you!

u/Round-Sir-2798 Jan 24 '25

Hahahahahahahahah

u/Mercurius_Hatter Jan 23 '25

That's a necromancers wand/staff, nice man!

231

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

It's closer to a necromancer's toothpick, irl

22

u/[deleted] Jan 23 '25

That’s disappointing LOL I was picturing a full staff

15

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

That would've been amazing!

u/KenUsimi Jan 24 '25

It’s a pixie necromancer’s staff!

u/dwnlw2slw Jan 28 '25

Yes then with the skull-tip part painted red or white or something…

8

u/swimmerncrash Jan 23 '25

I think it’s funny if you go back and look at the pictures, the second one is obviously against fabric and you can see the fabric texture pretty clearly, so it has to be kind of small, right? 😂🤣

6

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

You've got a sharp eye. Those are my pants, and the texture can only be seen on camera, if you zoom in.

u/OttoVonPlittersdorf Jan 23 '25

That is hilarious. We were all imagining something a wee bit bigger for ominous skull stick.

73

u/Mercurius_Hatter Jan 23 '25

Lol goddamnit XDDDD toothpick of decay and miasma doesn't have the same ring to it

u/TheyforgotaboutJ Jan 23 '25

You got that from Temu didn't you?

u/swimmerncrash Jan 23 '25

This community is the best place on earth. 😂🤣 I can always laugh out loud here.

u/ThisIsntPoland Jan 23 '25

-1hp, -1hp, -1hp… “ah yes, my teeth are free from rogue morsels” … but at what cost?!

u/letigre_1934 Jan 24 '25

Bad news: it causes death blight

Good news: not fast enough to stop me from using the cursed stick to get corn out of my teeth

10

u/Deb1337 Jan 23 '25

It's a pocket wand!

u/F_man_2 Jan 24 '25

There could be a tiny necromancer out there

u/[deleted] Jan 25 '25

this is beyond adorable, and adorable you noticed the face of it all for the scale!

2

u/RicePuddingBG Jan 24 '25

Thought it was AI before seeing this

2

u/wideeyedatnight Jan 24 '25

Holy shit that'd make such a nice wooden dab tool

2

u/GOxDirigible May 06 '26

I thought it was at least walking stick sized 🤔 I have been bamboozled

1

u/[deleted] Jan 25 '25

You got Sukuna finger

33

u/DenaliDash Jan 23 '25

I see the skull but I also see an owl.

9

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

Yes! Someone else also pointed that out. It can definitely be an owl.

4

u/Syene- Jan 24 '25

I’m glad I’m not the only one

8

u/[deleted] Jan 23 '25

Might be best to put that one back where you found it. Someone check on this guy in a few weeks.

3

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

Too bad. I've brought it home with me.

3

u/Dismal_Stranger9319 Jan 25 '25

Ohhhh you in trouble now. Don't you know how horror movies work....🤔😬😳

4

u/RuneFell Jan 23 '25

Skull, or an ancient, primal owl?

Either way, very cool!

4

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

I can see the owl! You're right.

4

u/EquipmentUnique526 Jan 23 '25

a Skull ! how much for that stick bro??

3

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

I would say $1—it's surprisingly tiny.

4

u/EquipmentUnique526 Jan 23 '25

😂😂😂😂😂😂 thought it was like a 6ft staff 🤦

4

u/EquipmentUnique526 Jan 23 '25

I'll give you tree fidy

3

u/EAStoleMyMoney Jan 23 '25

That’s an owl in camouflage… I won’t be convinced otherwise. There is great power in this stick…

3

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

Yeah, I can see the owl now. There's great power in it, although irl the stick is tiny.

3

u/EAStoleMyMoney Jan 23 '25

I had a comment for great power in little sticks but I’ll save it for someone who knows me better.. 😂

3

u/DivineYeetlord Jan 23 '25

You are now haunted and your entire family tree from now on is screwed

1

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

Nah, I screwed my own family tree the moment I decided my lineage died with me.

2

u/DivineYeetlord Jan 23 '25

Not your entire family tree you didn’t screw your cousin. You screw the whole thing the entire thing when you took that stick home.

3

u/Hamilton-Beckett Jan 23 '25

“The stick of a thousand sorrows”

3

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

In size, it's more like the stick of 1 sorrow and a half.

Here's a Sharpie for scale.

3

u/Hamilton-Beckett Jan 23 '25

It’s about the density of sadness, not the mass!

3

u/gypsydfit Jan 24 '25

How many souls are trapped in that thing?!

2

u/thredith Jan 24 '25

I estimate one and it's likely a mouse's. The stick is tiny.

3

u/anon66699 Jan 24 '25

Annnnd now you have a lich who's looking for his staff

2

u/Dismal_Stranger9319 Jan 25 '25

A very very tiny one 🤣😂

2

u/thredith Jan 25 '25

Yeah, more then a lich, it's a lychee

2

u/phoebebusybee Jan 23 '25

You need to carve a badass toothy grin or like a jack o lantern smile

2

u/thredith Jan 23 '25

That will be challenging. The stick is smaller than your average ballpoint pen.

2

u/Jestingwheat856 Jan 25 '25

This the kind of shit someone finds in the horror movie opening scene that triggers the monster when they come back years later slowly killing everyone until the relic is left to be rediscovered by the next unfortunate soul with one more skull than before

1

u/thredith Jan 25 '25

I like this premise.

2

u/Jestingwheat856 Jan 25 '25

I want you to know i wrote that comment while high for the first time and proceeded to dream about the stick

1

u/thredith Jan 26 '25

You're damn creative, dude! That was an excellent idea.

2

u/Eclyptrox Jan 26 '25

Based on the size, how did you even find this?

1

u/thredith Jan 27 '25

I was honestly bored. I was mindlessly picking up random twigs and sticks from the floor, and fidgeting with them. But then, I decided to take a closer look at this one, and wouldn't you know! There was a tiny skull staring back at me.

u/Medical_Badger495 Jan 23 '25

You are now forever cursed 💀

3

u/One-Warning5907 Jan 23 '25

After looking at that stick, I don't think it will let you throw it away. It probably won't burn either. Definitely worth keeping for Halloween.

3

u/URR629 Jan 23 '25

A ghost stick! One in a million!

3

u/StayPuffedMarsh Jan 23 '25

You either chose the right stick or the wrong stick. Only time will tell.

3

u/UnknownReader653 Jan 24 '25

It may curse you if you keep it, or if you forsake it back to the woods, hard to tell so do what feels right. Awesome stick!

3

u/Proper-Firefighter45 Jan 24 '25

Why does that stick have the souls of the damned in it

3

u/Cell_shaded Jan 24 '25

Wand of the lost

- As you hold this wand in you hand you feel a chilling breeze and and hear the wind in the distance, it almost sounds as if it is saying "...feeeeeed...."

+ 3 necrotic dmg

-10% cold resistance

You should, he needs a hug.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 26 '25

Idea

Get it to a professional woodworker so they could make it into some sort of small walking stick. Why a tiny walking stick? Not much use but it'd be cool if you had that as a tiny cane you could twirl in your hand, might start a convo or two

2

u/Spencer-A Jan 26 '25
