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, restoring their HP, but starting with Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies, the sage's staff could be used to cast Insulate on an ally, protecting them from breath attacks.

Characteristics

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.
