I was wondering, how pissed would the clergy of Mystra becoming do you think if one of these wands got away from them. Part of me says very (after all, its one of their main specialty spells). The other part of me thinks they might even give these away as special rewards. Given that it only gives the ability to duplicate any spell of 2nd lvl or under twice a day... its not too overpowered, but it would be a very nice thing to have.

This magic item exists, or it can be built by the rules?
If it exists, where? =)
If it can be built, can you provide the details? =) |

Anyspell is a divine spell, and eternal wands are specifically (and, I think, appropriately) restricted to arcane spells only. It's not possible to place anyspell in an eternal wand under the best of circumstances. |

Second wand of lesser anyspell, are extremely rare, You don’t find them in a treasure ore buy them in a magic store.
Eternal wands were "generified" in the Magic Item Compendium, and I kind of like the idea, so I'll take this one in our favor. That having been said, yeah, they are arcane spells only. |

The wand would be useless without a spellbook anyhow.
Why?
Does the spell Anyspell have that same restriction? |

Achh, just hit on my own problem with this. Anyspell is a divine spell (spell domain or initiate of mystra feat) that lets you prepare an arcane spell. Eternal Wand stores an arcane spell. Game mechanics wise, shouldn't make a difference, but.... Anyway, was just playing with it as an idea that they had just discovered it, and one was stolen, but they wanted the party to recover it lest folk uncover their secret. Might still be neat if there's a temple that keeps about 10 of these on hand, so that they always have some minor cures, detections, whatever that they might need without having to rely on keeping them memorized. Their religion might thereby gain a better reputation as being "always prepared" for the little things, whereas other religions "never have what we need memorized". |
