# Baba Yaga's Pestle *Weapon ([quarterstaff](/Rules/Source/items/quarterstaff-xphb.md)), artifact (requires attunement)* - **Damage**: - One-handed: 1d6 bludgeoning - Two-handed: 1d8 bludgeoning - **Properties**: [Versatile](/Rules/Source/item-properties.md#Versatile) - **Weight**: 4.0 lbs. The pestle is a 6-inch-long, worn wooden tool. Once during your turn while you are holding the pestle, you can extend it into a quarterstaff or shrink it back into a pestle (no action required). As a quarterstaff, the pestle is a magic weapon that grants a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it. The pestle has 12 charges. When you hit with a melee attack using the pestle, you can expend up to 3 of its charges to deal an extra `dice:1d8|noform|noparens|avg` (`1d8`) force damage for each charge expended. The pestle regains all expended charges daily at dawn. *Source: Tasha's Cauldron of Everything p. 121*
