Staff of Ra
This is a wooden staff with Egyptian symbology and gold accents. It is a focus for A Day's Work Well Done, a spell cast with the Time Cessation Lore (base requirement 10 thaums in ♣). It's for one day (4 thaums), Range (as Touch, centered on themselves, 1 thaum), Number of Subjects (just the sorcerer, 1 thaum), Type of Subjects (mortal or self, 1 thaum), Familiarity of Subjects (very familiar, 1 thaum). The focus contains value 11 in ♣ towards the spell; since the spell only costs 18 thaums when un-practiced, Count Chazamboni doesn't even need to draw any thaums to power this spell.
The Count made the staff when he wasn't quite so skilled at sorcery ...
Practiced Spells
A Day's Work Well Done: as above; thaumic cost is thus always 9 ♣. Even without the Staff of Ra, the Count can get the spell off instantly. From the point of view of everyone else, there's a flash of light and a loud wordless "aaah" sound.
More Hands Make Faster Work: also using the basic Lore of Time Cessation (base requirement 10 thaums in ♣). This spell has a Duration of 1 hour (3 thaums), Range (as Touch, centered on themselves, 1 thaum), Number of Subjects (up to 10 persons, 2 thaum), Type of Subjects (mortal or self, 1 thaum), Familiarity of Subjects (don't know the subject, 3 thaum). After modification (half cost due to full definitions) the spell costs 10 thaums. Note that the Count cannot bring other wizards, dwarves, faeries, demons or dragons with him. When casting the spell, the subjects must touch the sorcerer (or the Staff of Ra), which glows brightly and makes a bell-like chime.
Army of One: using the lore of Temporal Fugue (base thaumic cost 12 ♣). The Definitions are Duration (1 hour, 3 thaums), Range (touch only, 1 thaum), Number of Subjects or Area (5 persons, 2 thaums), Type of Subjects (1 point as mortal or self), Familiarity of Subjects (very familiar, 1 thaum). Thaumic cost after modification is 10 thaums, so the Count can cast it quickly. When the copies are present, they make echo-y sounds, and their voices sound … choral.
