Editing Mod Rod (section)

==={{DQ3}}===
The staff is originally held by a [[boss troll]] in [[Manoza]], who assumed the form of the local king with it and turned the nation into a dystopia before the Hero killed him.  The staff can be traded for the [[Boatman's Bone]] in [[Grimland]].  Upon revisiting the old man, he will have already used the staff assuming a different form per visit.  Oddly enough, he can turn into [[Pimiko]] with it, while the players can't. 

It can also be used to buy items from the shop in the [[Super Secret Faerie Village]], providing you take the form of a dwarf (or [[Slime]] in the remakes). The remakes also allow the player a chance to acquire another Mod Rod within the [[Treasures n' Trapdoors]] track in Jipang (after wishing for [[Xenlon]] to create it), and further rods can also be found as monster drops in the [[Ice Cave]]. As neither the Ice Cave nor T'n'T have been included in the mobile remakes of the game, players on the most recent releases and on the original {{NES}} release have just one window of opportunity to shop at the [[Super Secret Faerie Village]].

Turning into a monster with it allows for the player to talk to the [[imp]] in [[Asham]] or the [[minidemon]] on the [[Phantom Ship]] without triggering a battle.  Though both will state awareness of the player not really being a monster.
