“I can’t think of any past crawlers or dungeon bosses or places named that, which is what this stuff is usually named after. It’s a common name, though. I can think of a few of them, but I don’t know what they’d have to do with a stick. Only one of them is connected to the crawl.” -- Mordecai[1]

The Enchanted Stick of Cascadia's Screams ties into the fairytale surrounding the Seventh Floor, the "Great Race." It is connected to the Enchanted Hammer of Fast Forward.[2]

AI Description

This is a stick. It’s enchanted. It’s not a wand, but when used correctly, it can do something truly magical.[3]

Appearance

The Stick is an approximately 10" long metal rod with a 1/4" diameter (25.4 cm long x 0.635 cm thick). Carl believes it is made of aluminum. A slight indentation at the end of the rod feels like the number 7.[2]

Story

The Apothecary sends the Stick to Dmitri Popov in a Benefactor Box on the Sixth Floor, with a tag indicating that it should be given to Donut. Dmitri does not receive any notices of legal battles surrounding the item.[2]

Prepotente later uses the Stick to accelerate the Seventh Floor (while Cascadia screams).[4]
