The '''Godbird Sceptre''', also known as the '''Sceptre of Trodain''' and '''Rhapthorne's Sceptre''' is an essential item in ''Dragon Quest VIII''.
 
==Use==
The item is used in the final fight against Rhapthorne to break the barrier that is shielding him. With the help of [[Empyrea]], she breaks up the Sceptre into miniature ones, one for each party member. Each member must then use the Sceptre while Rhapthorne attacks them. Once all four members use the Sceptre, a spirit of one of the [[Seven Sages]] is released from the Sceptre. Once all Seven Sages are released, the barrier around Rhapthorne will be destroyed, and the final fight will begin.
 
==History==
When Rhapthorne battled against the Seven Sages and was defeated, Empyrea, the Godbird, created a sceptre specifically designed to banish Rhapthorne's magic. Rhapthorne himself was imprisoned inside the the Goddess Statue located at the [[The Holy Isle of Neos|Neos]]. His staff was transported to the [[Kingdom of Trodain|Castle of Trodain]], were it was kept and guarded for many, many years.
 
But one day, a jester named [[Dhoulmagus]], deeply desiring to become of the greatest magician of all time, learns about the Sceptre from a book his master, Master Rylus, kept in his house. He then goes to Castle Trodain and impresses [[King Trode]] with his magic. King Trode then allows Dhoulmagus to stay at the Castle, and it is there when Dhoulmagus breaks into the chamber were the Sceptre is kept. Dhoulmagus, overwhelmed by the power, gets possessed and curses, King Trode, his daughter [[Princess Medea]], and the rest of people in the Castle, with the exception of the [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|Hero]].
 
==Assailants==
The scepter has controlled many people along it's journey. Each person the Scepter possess all target the heirs of the Seven Sages.
 
The first of which was Dhoulmagus who broke into Trodain Castle and cursed the kingdom into a perpetual entanglement in vines and turned [[King Trode]] into a troll and [[Princess Medea]] into a horse. He headed toward the town of [[Farebury Region|Farebury]]. There, he killed Master Rylus and burned his house down to cover it up. He proceeded to the [[Alexandria Region|Tower of Alexandria]] and killed Alistair Albert, Jessica's brother. Following that was [[Maella Region|Maella Abbey]] where he killed Abbot Francisco. He crossed the ocean and went to [[Baccarat Region|Baccarat]] where he broke into the Golding Mansion and killed Golding himself.
 
Once Dhoulmagus was defeated by the party, Jessica picked up the staff and was taken over, but this took no effect until the next morning. She took off from Argonia to the northern checkpoint and headed through to Arcadia. She at first thought Diminoco to be the heir to the Sage, but it turned out to be David. Although she came close, she never actually killed him, but was defeated by the rest of the party.
 
After Jessica was Sir Leopold, Diminoco's beloved dog. He killed David, then flew off north to the [[Blizzard Peaks]] where he was targeting Marek, but discovered that it was Marek's mother, Marta, that was the heir and killed her. He then went off to the the [[Savella Region|Lord High Preist's Residence]] to attemt to kill the Lord High Preist himself, but was defeated bofore he could do so.
 
Finally, Marcello took the scepter and killed the Lord High Preist, making it look like he died from shock while also sending of his successor, High Preist Rolo, to [[Purgatory Island]]. Marcello was defeated at Neos and the scepter's hold over him was broken, but with the heirs of the Seven Sages killed and the Goddess Statue destroyed, Rhapthorne was free from his prison.
