'''Ager's Scepter''' is an [[Exotic]] [[Stasis]] [[Trace Rifle]] crafted by [[Mara Sov|Mara]] and [[Osana Sov]]. The weapon is capable of carving through reality to create pathways and was intended for Prince [[Uldren Sov]] of the [[Reef]] as a means for him to unite the outer edges of the [[Reef]]'s territory through the [[Ley Lines]] of the [[Ascendant Plane]]. However, Mara did not believe he was ready for such a weapon and hid it away in the [[Dozmary Vault]] until he proved himself worthy. It was eventually acquired by [[The Guardian]] after a being given a [[A Hollow Coronation|quest]] from Queen Mara to retrieve it.

True to its intended purpose, Ager's Scepter is the only weapon that can destroy certain parts of terrain in the [[Shattered Realm]], clearing the way to more of the secrets hidden within the area.

*Ager's Call referring to the explosion created upon defeating targets with the Scepter as "slowing" bursts is a misnomer, per Bungie's official definition of terms related to Stasis debuffs. As every burst applies a full 100 stacks of the "slow" debuff caused by Stasis and thus freezes them instantly, it would be more accurate to call them "freezing" bursts.
