If we're moving it to a rod then may as well scrap the staff while we're at it and add another token. The +2 Rod of Focus is usable by all classes that benefit from Focus.

This version gives +1 to focus.

I think it's OK to make this one +1 focus, and then add errata that older versions also do that.

Otherwise the effect should change to +1 spell damage, or this token should get a new name (quarterstaff of focus).

Good point. I will change it to Dawn Staff of Focus to explain the added boost. That gives folks another Dawn item, too!

Jeff, for consistency, maybe change the Baton to the Dawn Baton of Focus?

Batons are 1H weapons, but Staves are 2H weapons...so we should probably stick to Staff. Thanks.

Jeff, I don't completely understand your answer, I may not have been clear in my question. I was suggesting that in addition to changing the Staff of Focus to the Dawn Staff of Focus, you could change the Baton of Focus to the Dawn Baton of Focus. That would give Clerics & Druids another Dawn Weapon also.

The undeath tokens seem more like uncommon powers level rather than a rare.
