Magma staff
The magma staff, also known as the lava staff, is a recurring wand in the Dragon Quest franchise. It often is required to progress past a certain point by using it to remove a roadblock. Depending on the game, it will cast either Bang, Boom, or Magma Blast on all enemies when used as a tool in battle.
