Staves of Eden
The Staff of Eden was a Piece of Eden, shaped like a staff. The Staff of Eden was used most notably by various pharaohs,[1] popes[1][2] and Russian tsars.[1][3]
Use
Designed to control men's minds and bodies, it has a cradle in the headpiece where an Apple of Eden can be placed, in order to enhance its mind control effects. This conjunction of two Pieces of Eden can also be used to open The Vault door. Its bottom end is sharpened, and can be wielded as a spear in combat. It also grants the possessor the ability to conceal his presence entirely, and the ability of levitation; though whether these are physical effects, or simply manipulations of the viewers' perceptions, remains unknown.[1]

Trivia
- It is possible to kill Rodrigo Borgia without triggering the cinematic cutscene while in the Sistine Chapel if you poison him. After this, you can wield the Staff of Eden; though unfortunately, you cannot use any of its powers. [citation needed]
- In Assassin's Creed: The Fall, the shape of the Staff differs from the Assassin's Creed II rendition of the Staff, for unknown reasons.
