Magic ItemsGuild & Nazarick Gear
The guild weapon of Ainz Ooal Gown, tuned exclusively for Momonga; its power surpasses Divine class and rivals World Items.
- A golden staff modeled on the caduceus of Hermes, with seven snakes coiled around it, each holding a Divine-class gem in its mouth (the original confirms the Moon Gem, the Fire Gem, and others; the side story adds a Sun Gem; Wind and Water Gems are speculation; all seven names are undisclosed)
- The seven gems form a set and grow stronger when complete; they were so hard to collect that guild members called for giving up countless times
- Abilities: each gem can cast spells a set number of times per day, e.g. [Summon Primal Fire Elemental] once per day; it has an automatic interception system and exudes a dark-red aura
- If it is destroyed, the guild collapses, so in the YGGDRASIL era it was kept in the Round Table room and never once used (Vol. 1)
- Since the transfer it has been taken out only for the Battle of Carne Village and then entrusted to Aureole Omega; the staff Ainz normally carries is a hollow prototype made during its production (Vol. 4), with less than a tenth of the real one's power
- Exercising guild-master privileges (such as rewriting Albedo's settings) reportedly requires holding the guild weapon
- Gem effects used in the side story The Vampire Princess of the Lost Country: "Fire Gem" [Fire Storm], "Moon Gem" [Veil of Moon] (heavily reduces magic damage, no physical defense), "Sun Gem" [Shining Blast], summoning Primal Wind/Water Elementals (side story; presumed to come from the "Wind Gem" and "Water Gem" respectively)
