Rod of Ages

Canon Linked from 33 articles

The Rod of Ages, also known as the Sacred Rod, was a Force artifact, one of a set of three rods that were associated with the Nameless creatures that fed on the Living Force. While the Rod of Seasons and Rod of Daybreak could individually, or combined as the Rod of Power, control the Nameless, the Rod of Ages could cancel out the powers granted by the other rods. In 382 BBY, the two leaders of the Path of the Open Hand Werth Plouth, the Herald, and Elecia Zeveron, the Mother, contacted the smuggler Radicaz Dobbs, who specialized in Force artifacts, regarding the Rod of Ages. Over a century later, Jedi Padawan Amadeo Azzazzo and Jedi Knight Reath Silas sought to find the rod in their fight against the Nihil who utilized the Nameless. The two, working alongside former Jedi Master Cohmac Vitus eventually located the artifact and recovered it.
