Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai: the great Demon Lord Vearn is a formidable sorcerer, to the point that his weakest spells have the same firepower of high level spells from ordinary wizards.It's made out of what appears to be gold, and has a sun motif on the top. The Magic Staff is also the signature weapon of the White Magician Girl. In fact, sometimes the Magic Staff functions almost purely as Stock Costume Traits for magic-users.

Wizards of all kinds are known for carrying Magic Staves, which often go hand in hand with Robe and Wizard Hat. Another common variant is having a skull or bone sticked on a staff, commonly wielded by Necromancers and warlocks to emphasize the motif of death. It's not uncommon to see staves with huge gems, floating rings and just plain unlikely hugeness, and since Bigger Is Better, and Cooler Is Also Better a large, decorative staff is usually the sign of a powerful mage. They are generally considered more powerful than the traditional Magic Wand, and can be elaborate to the point of Awesome, but Impractical. While almost no carrier of this weapon will hesitate to wield their Magic Staff as best they can in physical combat should the need arise, for some the point isn't a Magic Staff's melee attributes but that a Magic Staff is a Magic Wand but better. For a Magic Staff which is often used in melee combat or Full-Contact Magic, the staff is usually much more modestly-sized and decorated than the staff of a mage that isn't taking advantage of the Magic Staff's melee-abilities. Often a Magic Staff acts as a weapon to be used when a character's Black Magic is exhausted or otherwise not working.

Sometimes the staff itself is magic, though other times it's just a Magic Focus Object with little inherent ability of its own. The magical Martial Arts Staff version is probably the most common and most deadly in physical combat, but canes, clubs and mace-like rods are also viable versions of a Magic Staff, should their shapes be taken advantage of. In that sense, it is a Magic Wand first and a melee-weapon second. A simple staff is quite versatile and coincidentally happens to resemble a really big Magic Wand, so it's no surprise that Wizards and Witches who want to add that extra kick to their spells, or who've decide they're tired of being a Squishy Wizard and want to be able to fight physically, often pick up a Magic Staff.Ī Magic Staff is a Magic Wand which is large and substantial enough to be a viable melee weapon.
