The Jawtoise is a basic monster vocation in Dragon Quest VII.

Description[edit]

The Jawtoise is a monstrous hybrid of a sea turtle and an alligator. It offers a moderate increase in Strength and a great increase in Resilience, but serious drops in all other categories. At rank 8, the vocation will give a weak resistance to Frizz, Sizz, Bang, Woosh, and Crack. It also grants a strong resistance to all status ailments, but Sap and Drain Magic. Mastering the vocation is necessary in order to become a Seasaur or a Dingbat.

Monster Heart[edit]

A character can become a Jawtoise by carrying a heart in their inventory and going to Alltrades Abbey to change their vocation. A Jawtoise Heart can be found in a treasure chest on B3F of the Den of the Dwarves in the past. More can also be won as prizes by playing the Lucky Panel game starting from the Casino at Pilgrim's Rest in the present onward. Finally, a jawtoise heart can be obtained by defeating the terrible terrapins at the Sunken Citadel in the past or from the Coral Cave in both the past and the present. The jawtoises have a 116 chance of dropping their hearts, lowering to a rate of 164 from the second time onward.

Trivia[edit]

  • In the Nintendo 3DS version, the names of each rank are all puns on the word "shell".
    • The accolade for rank 8, Exshellsior, is a pun based on the Latin word Excelsior, meaning "ever upward".
