How about a Handwaved Van DeGraph Generator. A Friend and I worked out a a Design That uses a Modified Maglight Casing (we used the 6 D- Cell version.) We used
4 d-cells to provide power to the electric motor in the handle, and replaced the Lamp head with a 6" (15cm) diameter brass sphere. It generated enough
static to make His hair stand on end, and would arc jump from about 1/2 to 3/4 of and inch.
It wouldn't be to hard to extend the design to a length of 6 or so. You would have a metal staff with a large knob on the end.
