The Staff of Hermes Trismegistus was a note documented by Layla Hassan in 2020 detailing her thoughts on the Staff of Hermes Trismegistus after obtaining it from Kassandra in 2018.[1]
File
- Acquired from the Eagle-Bearer, Kassandra, 2018
Presumed manufacture date: Late in the Isu Singularity Age, ~75,100 BCE / ~2200 IE
This staff, one of many Isu staves known to us, is first and foremost a medical device with the ability to heal, repair, restore, and rejuvenate organic tissues with unprecedented swiftness. It has been known to extend the life of its bearers well-beyond the average human and Isu lifespan and is presumed to have the ability to resuscitate living creatures in critical or suspended states. It has not been verified if the staff has the ability to resurrect the dead, but this seems unlikely, based on its known features.
It appears to work by reading and copying its bearer's DNA to ensure perfect replication on a broad scale. It is able to detect erroneous copies and deploy repairs so long as its bearer remains within direct contact.
It has been used as a weapon, infrequently, possible ny taking advantage of the tremendous power it draws from the Isu's Wireless Energy Lattice.
The staff has also acted as a conduit or container for the personality of an Isu called "Aletheia". It is not known if this personality is Aletheia's original consciousness or a simulation of the original, though most neuroscientists would call this a distinction without a difference. As of early 2019, the entity known as Aletheia has made no further attempts to contact me.
As yet, my purpose as the so-called "Heir of Memories"—as Aletheia has dubbed me—remains unclear.
