When activated, this rod can either push a targeted creature 5 feet farther away from you or pull it 5 feet closer to you.
The target must be within 30 feet of you and must end its movement in an unoccupied square. The movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity. An unwilling creature is entitled to a DC 11 Will saving throw to negate the effect.
A rod of sliding functions three times per day.
