  • If used with a wand in inventory, or if your last wand exploded more recently than 3 days ago, randomly drops some Dungeons of Doom potions and a random ring.
  • As long as you use a mimic no sooner than 3 days after your previous wand exploded, you will be able to get a wand, even if the mimic was acquired before the 3 days have elapsed.

References

  • The use description refers to the common usage of "stick up his butt" to refer to someone who is uptight.
