'''Saber''' is a character in {{Dragon Quest V}}. | |||
He is a {{MFamilies}} the {{Hero 5}} will always recruit, first as a cub then as a full grown adult. He is a [[Great sabrecub]] in the first generation and then becomes a [[Great sabrecat]], a large sabertooth leopard monster in the last couple of generations. | |||
==Bio== | ==Bio== | ||
Saber is one of the names that [[Bianca]] will suggest when you first recruit Saber. | Saber is one of the names that [[Bianca Whitaker]] will suggest when you first recruit Saber. Players first see Saber in the child part of the game where several children are bullying a small cat in [[Roundbeck]]. They will only stop it if the {{Hero 5}} and {{Bianca}} fight the ghosts in the castle north of the village. After accomplishing this, the kids complete their end of the deal and leave the cat alone. | ||
As gratitude, Saber emotionally bonds to The {{Hero 5}} to become a {{Party 5}} member for the rest of the child section of the game. {{Bianca}} gives him an equippable [[Bianca's clothing#Bianca's ribbon|Ribbon]] before she leaves the {{Party 5}}. The {{Hero 5}} and Saber become separated at the end of the first part of the game. | |||
They would meet again years later as adults, when The {{Hero 5}} is called on to save [[Hay|a village]] from a monster. The {{Hero 5}} learns that the "monster" has its lair in a dark cave. Saber, now an adult, will not quite remember The {{Hero 5}} and is considered impossible to defeat with a large amount of {{HP}}, though he does not attack, due to The {{Hero 5}}'s scent being familiar to him. The only way to end the battle is to use {{Bianca}}'s Ribbon on him. Thus, he will recognize The {{Hero 5}} and rejoin him for the rest of the game. If The {{Hero 5}} does defeat Saber in battle, he will be sent back outside the room and the battle will be repeatable. | |||
==Stats== | |||
As a permanent member of the {{Party 5}}, Saber is a very powerful ally to use. He can not use magic, but has incredible {{Attack}} and {{Defense}} as well as some very powerful techniques. Saber is also one of the fastest characters in the game and often can strike before anyone else. | |||
As the [[Nintendo DS]] port of game allows four members, Saber becomes a matter of choice on usage depending on the player's styles. The {{Hero 5}} and [[Hero's Son (Dragon Quest V)|his son]] are the strongest characters in the game and [[Hero's Daughter (Dragon Quest V)|the daughter]] can learn the best spells in the game so many players are suggested to use them. Players who like focusing on attacking opt to use Saber or {{Bianca}}/[[Debora Briscoletti]] as their fourth character while players who prefer to use magic will use [[Nera Briscoletti]]. Note that Saber's Level will cap at 20 while as a [[Great sabrecub]] in Generation 1. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*Saber is called '''Purrcy''' in {{DQH}}, {{Tact}} and {{DQYS}} and is featured when {{Bianca}} uses her [[Bianca's clothing#Bianca's ribbon|Ribbon]] during her High Tension super move. | |||
*{{Bianca}} suggests ten names for Saber: Saber, Leo, Spot, Mohicat, Tom, Purrcy, Mogy, Punk, Pyjamas and Baumren. If the player rejects all of them, she'll cycle through the list again. | |||
**In the the {{PlayStation 2}} version, there are eight possible names: Rusty, Borongo, Andre, Fluffy, Lynx, Growly, Peach, Zorro | |||
*All the names {{Bianca}} picks out for the sabrecat (including Purrcy) are derived from a children's book at her home in [[Roundbeck]]. | |||
