elder wand
Supremely powerful staff
The Elder Wand is the most powerful wand in the Harry Potter universe, one of three legendary objects called the Deathly Hallows.
According to wizarding lore, its allegiance transfers to whoever defeats its current master.
The term sometimes appears in general fantasy contexts for an exceptionally powerful magical implement: He finally found his elder wand—a gaming mouse that felt like an extension of his hand.
