Description
The most common weapon, a staff is a long, wooden stick originally used for herding livestock, guiding boats, or as a way of carrying supplies in baskets. The average length of the staff is about six feet, with a diameter of three and a half inches.
Used as a weapon, the staff can be used to strike an opponent's eyes, throat, and solar plexus of the groin area. It can also be used to block an attack as well as sweep the feet. For those who are well versed in its use, a broom, mop, or any number of household items can make for a convenient stand in.
Because of their particular fondness for them, wizards often bind magical energy into their staves.
