'''Rashers''' (formerly '''Inopp''') is a pig-like boss encountered in ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''.
 
'''Rashers''' is a pig-like boss encountered in {{DQ7}}.
 
He and his partner [[Stripes]] are lackeys of [[Cardinal Sin]] that guard the entrance to {{Alltrades Abbey 7}}.


==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
A [[Beast family|beastly]] demonic dark pig that stands on two trotters, ever ready to strike and smash with his massive bludgeoning club. Rashers wears a white shirt with a crescent moon design, white armlets, and a white mawashi similar to those worn by sumo wrestlers. In the first battle against him, he uses the [[Jolly Rager]] watery skill to strike down all enemies in a single swathe. Rashers can also blow up [[Sandstorm]]s in order to cause blindness. His English name, Rasher, refers to a thin slice of bacon or ham. Rashers and his fellow guard Stripes delight in the newfound power that the Cardinal has granted them in order to crush any [[human]]s that attempt to traverse the [[Western Cave]]. The two together are not particularly bright themselves, being fooled easily by the thief [[Fingers]] and prefer to use their brute force and unfair advantage in combat to overpower their foes.
==History==
On the island where {{Alltrades Abbey 7}} is located, the [[Orgodemir|Demon King]] sent [[Cardinal Sin]] to take over the temple in order to prevent any adventurers from becoming [[Hero]]s and to steal powers away from unsuspecting [[human]]s and use them as an offering. [[Cardinal Sin]] placed both Rashers and [[Stripes]] guard the entrance to the [[Precipice Pass]] and augmented their powers so no [[human]]s would be able to stand up to them.

==Strategy==
The first battle against Rashers and [[Stripes]] in the [[Western Cave]] is completely unwinnable in both versions of the game, due to a combination of having an exceedingly high amount of {{HP}} and simply recovering too much {{HP}} each turn for the {{Party 7}} to make any dent. In the original [[Sony PlayStation]] version, it is theoretically possible to beat the two if the {{Party 7}}'s levels are raised to an absurdly high level, but it makes no impact on the story as the game continues as if the {{Party 7}} has been defeated in any case. Rashers and Stripes have an infinite amount of {{HP}} in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version, so it is impossible to try defeating them.


A beastly demonic dark pig that stands on two trotters, ever ready to strike and smash with his massive bludgeoning club. He uses the jolly roger watery skill to strike down all enemies in a single swathe.  
The second time the {{Party 7}} faces Rashers and [[Stripes]], High Priestess [[Jacqueline]] negates the stolen power that has been granted to them and [[Eustace]] joins in order to face them on equal footing. Rashers will no longer be able to use [[Jolly Rager]] on the {{Party 7}}, but he can still land {{Desperate attack}}s and blow up sand to blind the {{Party 7}}. It will still be a difficult fight since the {{Party 7}} hasn't gained back their lost abilities or spells, forcing them to rely on [[Medicinal herb]]s and the [[Salvation stone]] for healing. It is a good idea to focus on defeating Rashers first as his [[Sandstorm]] is a nuisance. As long as the {{Party 7}} stays regularly healed, the two beasts will eventually be defeated.
