ok. you're back from the Land. You've been made a Lord. So the Lord that brought you there dies, and you get sent back to the 'real' world. You still have your Staff, and it still works. What would You do? ![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

I`d go for a walk in some crime infested areas:
Thug with gun: Give me all your money or I`ll kill ya!
Lord Dag son of Dag: Melenkurion abatha! Ward yourself well, criminal. I seek to defeat you!
*Thug looks confused, but fires gun. Dag reflects bullet with his staff. Thug runs of screaming with fear*
Ah...the simple joy of heroics.

Picture the scene. Reality has, once again, been suspended at (insert national seat of government of your choice). Politicians argume about whether to raise their salary by 20, 30 or 40%, some call for a doubling of their salary. Meanwhile, hospitals, schools, communities, entire infrastructures of society, cry out in vain for a few paltry pennies, crumbs from the table, to sustain them through another day of abject delinquency.
Into this sad, sad scene strides Michael Giantfriend, protector of the weak, defender of the downtrodden, upholder of truth and beauty. The doors of Parliament are blown open, and lords' fire crackles down the aisles, opening the eyes of the purblind fools that govern in greed and selfishness to the suffering that they perpetrate. Their hearts are turned, and they see the error of their ways. A new era of peace and prosperity is ushered in, glory be!!!
Locally, a whoosh of blue lords' fire and that waste-ground behind the school is now lush with trees, flowers and grass, ideal for football, dog-walking and general naughtiness behind the bushes. Wallop! There goes the local drug-baron, his stash exploding in an incandescent ball of flame, while his money flutters on the breeze to the homeless sitting beside the chip-shop. The two teenagers sitting on a wall while their toddler children play in the street are filled with the urge to educate their children, to give them a true upbringing, to nurture that which is best in humanity! Hearts are opened to love and cherish one another! The rape of the planet is halted, and humanity turns to sustainable sources of energy! The life-sap of the Earth runs clear and true in the forests of the world! Disease is vanquished! Poverty is ended! Life is made sweet and good!! The benevolent dictatorship of Michael Giantfriend spreads joy over the world!!!
Erm ...
... I'll post again when I've given this one a bit of thought ... um ... I'll get me coat ...

Difficult question, but I would probably spend most of my time trying to figure out why the staff was working over here.
Apart from that I am sure that the capability of wielding earthpower in a meaningful way could be put to any number of uses from curing cancer to putting words of warding on my front door.

4 starters I would use the staff to get rid of anything that bears any relation 2 nuclear weapons, beginning with my home state. This includes Los Alamos, Sandia Labs, White Sands testing Range, Trinity site, W.I.P.P. uranium mines, u name it! Then I would bless NM w/ 3 months of rain b4 traveling on...(the people would spared, followed by some serious debriefing...)
fall far and well Pilots!

Good Idea. I'd still want to scare the "ahem" out of the kids who knocked me down in pre-school. Then I'd put a Word of Warning around my house and summon Sandgorgons and put them around the outside of my house. Some kresh too. And a sign that says, Salesman Welcome. Wolf Food Is Expensive Whaddayathink?
Danlo, you had a good basic idea, but I would modify it somewhat. I would use it to make it impossible to remove the fuel from the reactors until it was completely inert, and I would convert all weapons grade nuclear materials into commercial grade materials for use in energy production. Unfortunately nobody is wise enough to be able to do these things yet, so alas we must suffer with the results of our power demands.
