Ling is High Elf, so I don't think that's it.
I'm bored at work and doing some research for you Ling.
I will edit this with my findings.
This is Elebrin btw, not trying to creep you out. =p
Edit:
5/20 is a really good ratio.
I doubt there are any newbie items even close to that.
I did find a 5/25 staff that drops in Sol A called Staff of Fire.

I found a 7/28 Cleric mace which would be really good for you.
Gem-Encruster Scepter, it drops off a named in Mistmoore.

The only 25/50 Staff I found was a drop from Vox with 10 charges of 90% Rez on it.
So you won't get getting anything as uber as that for a long while.
