Charge/Cost = Uses: 20000/1000=20 Voice of Sheogorath in 75ft for 15 secs on Target

The Staff of Sheogorath "freezes" all characters and creatures within the radius of 75ft for 15 seconds and is functional both inside and outside the Shivering Isles. The Staff's spell will only take effect if an NPC or creature is attacking you, or another creature/NPC. It causes all affected targets to become paralyzed, but in a manner that is different from traditional Paralyze spells; rather than physically paralyzing them, the staff renders all targets unconscious and frozen in place. When the spell is activated, Jyggalag's voice yells "Hold", and once the spell has deactivated, Jyggalag's voice yells "Release". In addition, no target affected by the staff can be damaged by attacks. Using the Staff is not considered a hostile act.

The staff can be recharged using the Font of Madness. This is only one of two practical methods, given that it requires 20,000 magicka to recharge the Staff (the equivalent of 13 grand Soul Gems). The other method would be to use a Varla Stone.
