I used this Adafruit tutorial for a druid staff for the ren faire last year. The emerald lit up with the click of the button hidden in the handle and the speaker played sounds of the forest and then an angry crow call when it was hit on the ground or shaken. It was pretty easy to get working.

That is so cool!
Something like an Arduino Gemma, some LEDs and a battery pack could be fun to drop in there.
