The ''' | The '''Mod Rod''' is a item that first appeared in ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'' as the '''Staff of Change. In the [[NES]] Version of ''[[Dragon Quest IV]]'', it's called the '''Staff of Transform'''. It is also used as an item to transform a character(s) into a different shape. The recent name came from the [[DS]] Version of ''Dragon Quest IV''. | ||
==Dragon Quest III== | |||
The staff is originally held by a [[Boss Troll]] in [[Samanao]] who assumed the form of the king with it. The staff can be traded for the [[Sailors Thighbone]] in [[Greenlad]]. Upon revisiting the old man, he will have already used the staff assuming a different form per visit. Oddly enough, he can turn into [[Himiko]] with it, while the players can't. | |||
It can also be used to buy items from the shop in [[Elvenham]], providing you take the form of a dwarf (or [[Slime]] in the [[Super Famicom]] or [[GBC]] Version). The remakes also allow the player a chance to acquire another Staff of Change within the [[Pachisi]] track in Zipangu (after wishing for [[Divinegon]] to create it). | |||
Turning into a monster with it allows for the player to talk to the [[Demonite]] in [[Ashalam]] or the [[Minidemon]] on the [[Phantom Ship]] without triggering a battle. Though both will state awareness of the player not really being a monster. | |||
==Dragon Quest IV== | |||
The staff is found in a chest at the [[Royal Crypt]]. It is needed for The [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|Hero]] to take the form of monsters in order to blend in at [[Diabolic Hall]]. Talking to the monsters otherwise will result in a battle. In addition, the player needs to be in monster form to talk to the monsters at the meeting so that [[Psaro (Character)|Psaro]] will arrive to announce the revival of [[Estark]]. | |||
In the NES Version, using the staff also allowed for tranformations into The Hero, [[Ragnar]], [[Alena]], [[Kiryl]], [[Borya]], [[Torneko]], [[Maya]] or [[Meena]]. | |||
