The Oaken club is a recurring weapon in the Dragon Quest series. Highly crude, it is not very powerful and is often one of the first weapons found in a game.

Characteristics[edit]

The oaken club is a primitive weapon that appears to have been carved roughly out of a tree trunk and has cloth wrapped around the handle for ease of use. In the instruction manuals for the Famicom versions of the original Dragon Quest and Dragon Quest II, the oaken club was depicted as having numerous nails sticking out of it. They appear to be the favored weapons of many monsters, such as Trolls and Cyclopes.
