Specifically I don't care for wands and staves to be spell storing / spell trigger items. Instead I was thinking something along the lines that maybe they offer bonuses such as a + 3 to the DC of a spells with a [Fire] descriptor. In this way it would remain very valuable for a mage (or other caster) with an interest in casting Fireball and similar magics, but would do nothing for someone trying to cast anything else. The item might even have a restriction to only work for an Arcane Specialist in a particular school or a divine caster with a specific domain or from a specific temple, etc etc.
So then the "Advice" part of this thread: Anyone know of an alternate rule, or 3PP which does something like this? I seem to recall there was something that came out 2 - 3 years ago like this, but cant seem to find it now.
