The Scepters are items dropped by the Twilight Lich which is found in a Lich Tower in the Twilight Forest. The three Scepters have various powers. The Scepter that the Twilight Lich carries has the powers of all three Scepters combined, yet only one of the Scepters is dropped upon his death. Similar to anything fueled by EU, when the Scepters run out of durability, they simply cease functioning and must be recharged but do not break. All three Scepters cause the player to move slower when right-click is held down to use them and to zoom in slightly as if the player were using a Bow.

Scepter of Life Draining[edit]
The Scepter of Life Draining is a scepter which drains the life energy of whatever mob is right-clicked. Pink particle effects appear upon doing so. The best way to use this scepter is to hold down right-click while staring at an enemy. This will cause the enemy to float off the ground slightly and life energy will be transferred from the enemy to the user of the scepter, causing the user to heal faster than normal as if the user were in Peaceful mode. If the transfer of life energy is stopped midway through, the enemy will have the Slowness debuff applied to them and continue to approach the player, but at a much slower rate allowing the player to recharge the scepter or prepare for another round of draining. The scepter does not work against the Ender Dragon.
The Scepter of Life Draining holds 99 charges.
Recharging[edit]
Scepter of Twilight[edit]
The Scepter of Twilight is a scepter which shoots projectiles exactly identical to the Lich's projectiles whenever it is right-clicked. These particles appear with a texture similar to Ender Pearls and a blue-green particle effect following them. They are prone to gravity, but only slightly, and the effect can only be seen over a distance of 32 meters or more. Each projectile deals 2.5 hearts of damage, able to kill Skeletons and Creepers in four hits, Spiders in three and Zombies in five.
The Scepter of Twilight holds 99 charges.
Recharging[edit]
Zombie Scepter[edit]
The Zombie Scepter is a scepter which summons zombie minions such as those that the Twilight Lich creates when he reaches ~75% health. These zombies are faster, stronger and more durable than normal zombies. Their textures have been adjusted to be more green. They are also loyal to their creator and will fight any enemies that their creator encounters. However, they are vulnerable to light and will spontaneously combust after one or two minutes (random chance.)
The Zombie Scepter holds 9 charges.

Known Bugs[edit]
If the right mouse button is repeatedly clicked while holding a Scepter of Twilight, it may sometimes get "stuck" and continue firing without the right mouse button being held down or clicked. The Scepter will continue firing until the charges drain or the player right clicks again. It is currently unknown but possible as to whether or not this bug holds true for the other two types of Scepter. This bug most likely does not hold true for the others, as the Zombie Scepter runs out of charges too quick to tell and the Scepter of Life Draining only functions when it is pointed at a mob.
Trivia[edit]
When viewing the items.png file for Twilight Forest, four scepters are seen; the Scepter of Twilight, the Scepter of Life Draining, the Zombie Scepter and a sprite for an unknown scepter that has not yet been implemented, even in the mod's code, as no item exists for this scepter. This unknown scepter appears similar to the others, but with an orange head. Thus, it may potentially be a fire scepter of some sort.
