From the Christmas Dragon's Hoard: The Staff of Evergreen

Unlike other items featured in this series of posts, the Staff of Evergreen was not created by Brigid the Red. Instead, it was a gift from a grateful conclave of druids that she saved from Roman troops. Although not strictly a Christmas item, it has become part of Christmas legends in small northern Irish villages and isolated communities in Morocco, because Brigid lent the staff to leaders of the communities when trouble faced them at Christmas time. (Brigid may also tinkered with an enchantment or two to make the staff more "Christmasy"...

 

THE EVERGREEN STAFF
Aura: Strong evocation and transmutation
Slot: None (held item)
Weight: 4 lbs.

This quarterstaff is carved from pine wood that remains forever fresh. Small pinecones dangle from its length on silver chains, and the scent of fresh evergreen follows its bearer. The staff is wrapped in spiraling bands of red ribbon that glow faintly in darkness.

The Evergreen Staff functions as a +2 quarterstaff and grants the bearer a +4 competency bonus to Survival skill checks in cold or winter environments. The bearer is also unaffected by temperatures as low as -50 degrees. allows use of the following spells at12th-level effectiveness. Additionally, the bearer can cause the following spell-like effects by expending the staff's charges:

* Entangle (1 charge, but manifests as animated garland and ribbon)
* Spike growth (1 charge, craggy ice and upside-down icicles spread in the direction 

        the staff is pointed)
* Plant growth (2 charges, causes evergreen trees to sprout)
* Wall of thorns (3 charges, creates a wall of holly bushes with red berries)
* Control weather (4 charges, can only create gentle snowfall)

The staff has 10 charges and regains 1d6+4 charges daily at dawn, up to the staff's maximum of 10. If the bearer expends the staff's last charge, roll d20. On a 1, the staff transforms into a normal evergreen tree sapling that must grow for one year before it can be harvested and reforged into the staff (requiring the original construction process, which is now known only to Brigid)..
Additionally, the bearer gains a +4 competence bonus on Survival checks in cold or winter environments and can survive comfortably in temperatures as low as -50°F without protection.fdsa
