Wand of paralyzing. Just tell them that. Then, when they get to use it, they find out that the wand actually just paralyzes itself and just floats in the air doing nothing. DM got me good there just as I had to perform a spell on a guard. Had to aggressively improvise afterwards.
Be careful in a more realistic setting, where the rod stays fixed in place (in its own reference frame) while the earth, the solar system and the galaxy all keep moving at thousands of km per second.
O I like this. Had my DM thought of this I would have succeeded in my first attempt at calling an Orc into the bathroom with me to “help me out with my orc problems”.

It’s just an immovable rod disguised as a wand
