It is a short staff entwined with two serpents and often topped with a pair of wings and has become a representation or symbol of healing. Caduceus is often confused or conflated with the [[Wikipedia:Rod of Asclepius|Rod of Asclepius]], a staff entwined with only a single serpent associated with Asclepius, a Greek deity of healing and medicine.<br /> <br /> In the original Japanese, the ability always shared the same name as the recurring staff which first appeared in {{Dragon Quest IV}}. The ability was renamed to reflect this in {{Dragon Quest XI}}.<br /> <br /> {{DQSkills}}<br /> <br /> [[category:Skills]]<br /> [[Category:Restorative skills]]<br /> [[Category:Wand skills]]<br /> [[Category:Dragon Quest VIII skills]]<br /> [[Category:Dragon Quest IX skills]]<br /> [[Category:Dragon Quest X skills]]<br /> [[Category:Dragon Quest XI skills]]</div>
