The sage's staff is a recurring wand in the Dragon Quest series. In earlier entries in the series it could be used as tool to cast Midheal on an ally, but starting with Dragon Quest IX the sage's staff could be used to cast Insulate on an ally and protect them from breath attacks.
Characteristics[edit]
The staff has had two different designs throughout the series history. The design featured in III and VII is a tall wooden staff with an upwards curving horn-like shape at the top and a metal cover on the bottom. The weapon also features a jewel set in the center of the top section, either blue or orange depending on the game. Starting with IX, the sage's staff is now dark red and has a orange crystal orb at the top held in a silver setting.
