The Staff of antimagic is a wand in the series.

Characteristics

The Staff of antimagic has had two distinct designs throughout the series history.

• The original design is a long wooden staff topped with the image of a priest of Hell, which has a distinctive skeletal head with fangs and wears an ornate vermilion headpiece and mantle, decorated with gold and various blue gemstones. The base of the staff ends in a hoop containing a vermilion orb and another blue gem.
• The staff of antimagic from Dragon Quest VIII is a wooden staff topped with a curved crescent-shaped design containing a small red jewel in the middle. Various red, pink, and green accents and grooves are carved all over the staff. It is roughly the same shape as the Lightning staff from the same game.

In some games, it has been classified as a heavy wand.
