The '''sage's staff''' is a recurring [[Wand Weapon Family|wand]] in the {{DQSeries}}. In earlier entries in the series it could be used as tool to cast [[Midheal]] on an ally, but starting with {{DQ9}} the sage's staff could be used to cast [[Insulate]] on an ally and protect them from [[Breath attack|breath attacks]].

The staff has had two different designs throughout the series history. The design featured in ''III'' and ''VII'' is a tall wooden staff with a curved horn-like shape at the top and a metal cover on the bottom. The weapon also features a jewel at the top, either blue or orange depending on the game, which is not seen in the staff carried by sages in any piece of artwork. 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.
