'''Dragon Quest VII Reimagined''' is the second remake of {{Dragon Quest VII}}, announced on September 12th 2025. Unlike the [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake released in 2013 that implemented modest balance adjustments compared to the original, ''Reimagined'' is a total reworking of the adventure that changes several elements to provide a different experience. Certain aspects that were added in the Nintendo 3DS remake have been retained, such as [[Ruff]] riding on the back of his adoptive mother and the unnamed {{Faerie}} guide dwelling in the [[Shrine of Mysteries]], newly dubbed [[The Caretaker]]. A demo that covers up to the conclusion of the [[Ballymolloy]] scenario was released on January 7th, 2026.
==New features==
===Presentation changes===
*Characters are displayed in a handcrafted artstyle and the environments are presented as dioramas, not unlike Square-Enix's [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantasian Fantasian]
*The proportionate size of characters in relation to the environments has been returned to the original [[PlayStation]] scale, compared to the compressed 3DS version
*A character's weapon and shield are now displayed in battle similar to {{Dragon Quest VIII}} and {{Dragon Quest XI}}
*Characters can equip alternate outfits similar to {{Dragon Quest XI}} ''S''.

===Character changes===
*[[Pike]] stockpiles water from [[Rainbow Cove]] to sell to his marks
*[[Barbatos]]es now have their usual blue appearance, compared to both prior versions of the games where the monsters were flesh colored.

===Scenario changes===
*The process of opening the [[Shrine of Mysteries]] has been altered considerably:
:*[[Kiefer]] has filched the [[sizzling stone]] off of [[Pike]] and brought a tablet fragment with him, using both on the statue after his late mother's ring doesn't work, saving the player the trouble of walking back and forth across Estard to acquire them
:*A voice speaks through the statue and instructs the {{Hero 7}} and Kiefer to complete puzzles hidden through the island to obtain three fragment shards in order to be granted access to the shrine. Eventually, the voice that instructed them through the statue is revealed to be The Caretaker when Auster and Kiefer finally gain access to the Shrine of Mysteries.
:*[[Dermot]] the hermit has locked the way to one of these puzzles after being unable to complete it in his youth
*Beyond the opening the game is considerably more non-linear than before, allowing players to tackle the problems of the past in nearly any order provided the requisite tablet fragments have been found
*The player also has more agency within a given island scenario than before. For example the player's decisions influence the strength of the [[Maeve|boss]] sealing [[Ballymolloy]] and the ending of that adventure can be slightly altered
*The [[Rainbow Cove]] is now accessible from the overworld, instead of needing to enter through the [[Shrine of Mysteries]]
*Fragment locations have been changed and a checklist has been added to the system menu to keep track of them
*The story of the present-day [[Roamers]] has been altered so that [[Aishe]] joins the party much sooner than in past versions
*New scenarios that elaborate on the {{Hero 7}} and [[Maribel]]'s childhood have been added
*New scenario featuring an older [[Kiefer]] has been added
*A battle arena has been added, with one section including the three archfiends from the [[Erdrick Trilogy]]
*Several new monsters have been added to the game's bestiary in addition to the three archfiends, ranging from common enemies such as [[slimecicle]]s and [[Toady|toadies]] to boss characters such as [[Atlas]], [[Robbin' 'Ood]], and even [[Xenlon]]
*The fog over [[Vogograd]] at [[Mount Gora]] by [[Gasputin]] is now generated by [[hammerhood]]s instead of [[forky pig]]s

===Cut content===
*The woodcutter and his cabin east of [[Pilchard Bay]] have been removed
*The [[El Ciclo]], [[Gröndal]], & [[Providence]] scenarios have been removed
*The casinos, the [[Excellence Grading Organisation]], the [[The Haven|Immigrant Town]], and [[Monster Meadows]] sidequests have been removed
*The vocation uniforms seen in the 3DS version have been removed, with characters retaining their default appearance as in the PSX original
===Battle changes===
*All five heroes can now travel together, with the fifth being a backup character to be swapped in at will during battle
*Just like the 3DS remake, random encounters have been replaced with on-screen monsters
*The player can now attack monsters outside of battle for minor damage and even one-shot weaklings, similar to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_Mario_(video_game) Nintendo's Paper Mario]
*New spells have been added, such as the [[Crag]], [[Deceleratle]], [[Frizz Cracker]], [[Kerfrizz]], & [[Moreheal]] spells, and fourth-tier attack spells such as [[Kaswooshle]]
*The [[Woosh]]-family of spells now target random foes instead of a single group. The range increases by tier, such as Woosh hitting 2~3 foes & [[Swoosh]] hitting 2~4
*New skills have been added, such as [[Clap Trap]], [[Hip Drop]], [[Hymn of Light]], and [[Kiss Me Deadly]]
*Certain abilities have had their MP cost rebalanced, such as [[Maelstrom]] taking 16 MP instead of 12
*The {{Charm}}, {{Deftness}}, {{Magical Mending}}, and {{Magical Might}} stats have been added
:*As a result the {{Style}} and {{Wisdom}} stats have been removed
*Shields have a chance to block 100% of a physical attack's damage as in {{Dragon Quest IX}}, {{Dragon Quest X}}, and {{Dragon Quest XI}}
===Vocation changes===
*Vocation advancement is no longer based on the number of battles fought while in a given profession, instead using a secondary experience point system where stronger enemies award more points than weaker ones
*New exclusive starter vocations have been added for every character to increase their ability repertoire in the early portions of the game before accessing {{Alltrades Abbey 7}}
:*For example Ruff starts in the [[Wolf Boy]] (オオカミ少年) vocation and Aishe begins as [[Destiny's Dancer]]
*Characters can now take up two vocations simultaneously in a featured dubbed moonlighting
*All beginner-grade vocations now have passive traits instead of only the [[Dancer]], [[Martial Artist]], [[Sailor]], & [[Thief]]
*All vocations now feature exclusive perk abilities that trigger when a character is thoroughly worked up in battle and selects the [[Let Loose]] command, ranging from powerful attacks to life-saving buffs
*All spells and skills learned through a vocation are now tied to that vocation, meaning for instance that a [[Pirate]] will not be able to perform the [[Flying Knee]] skill unless the character is also moonlighting as a [[Martial Artist]]. This restriction is stricter than that found in the Nintendo 3DS remake, in which all abilities learned through beginner-grade vocations were permanently available to a character, but it also adds another layer of strategy in assigning vocations and reduces the overabundance of techniques that cluttered a character's command menu in past versions of the game
:*The {{Hero 7}}'s exclusive spells, [[The Great Leveller]] and [[The Greater Leveller]], are permanently tied to him regardless of his vocation
*Monster vocations have been removed and [[monster heart]]s have become a new type of accessory that grant monster-themed traits to characters, similar to the Monster Battle Road badges in ''Dragon Quest X'' and [[List of medals in Dragon Quest Treasures|medals in ''Dragon Quest Treasures'']]
*The [[Monster Master]] vocation replaces the [[Monster Masher (vocation)|Monster Masher vocation]]
*Characters can change vocations on the fly after being given the [[career sphere]] by [[High Priestess Jacqueline]], which is automatically assigned to a shortcut button. Using it will allow Jacqueline to telepathically change a character's vocation, and in the present her descendant [[Jacqui]] will handle the duties
==Development==
In a brief video published on the day of the game's announcement, producer [[Takeshi Ichikawa]] states that the subtitled of "Reimagined" was chosen as the game changed so much of the original's content. The narrative has been reworked extensively, with new scenarios being added while others were removed to improve the original game's infamous pacing. [[Yuji Horii]] notes that searching for [[fragment]]s is much easier than before. Real-life figurines were scanned to create the in-game models for the six main characters, with the developers dubbing this approach the "diorama style". These figurines were created by [https://www.st-nova.jp/ Studio Nova], a celebrated atelier company founded in 1970<ref>https://x.com/stnova1970/status/1971427702130577704</ref>, and the studio's work was then used as the template to base the secondary characters and monsters on. A panel previewing the game was held on September 26th 2025 for the Tokyo Game Show, and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVWhtrFifPA live-streamed on youtube]. During the panel Horii announced which scenarios and features from past versions of the game would be cut for this remake, in addition to showing footage exploring [[Aeolus Vale]].

'''Dragon Quest VII Reimagined''' is the second remake of {{Dragon Quest VII}}, announced on September 12th 2025. Unlike the [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake released in 2013 that implemented modest balance adjustments compared to the original, ''Reimagined'' is a total reworking of the adventure that changes several elements to provide a different experience. Certain aspects that were added in the Nintendo 3DS remake have been retained, such as [[Ruff]] riding on the back of his adoptive mother and the unnamed {{Faerie}} guide dwelling in the [[Shrine of Mysteries]], newly dubbed [[The Caretaker]]. A demo that covers up to the conclusion of the [[Ballymolloy]] scenario was released on January 7th, 2026.
==New features==
===Presentation changes===
*Characters are displayed in a handcrafted artstyle and the environments are presented as dioramas, not unlike Square-Enix's [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantasian Fantasian]
*The proportionate size of characters in relation to the environments has been returned to the original [[PlayStation]] scale, compared to the compressed 3DS version
*A character's weapon and shield are now displayed in battle similar to {{Dragon Quest VIII}} and {{Dragon Quest XI}}
*Characters can equip alternate outfits similar to {{Dragon Quest XI}} ''S''.

===Character changes===
*[[Pike]] stockpiles water from [[Rainbow Cove]] to sell to his marks
*[[Barbatos]]es now have their usual blue appearance, compared to both prior versions of the games where the monsters were flesh colored.

===Scenario changes===
*The process of opening the [[Shrine of Mysteries]] has been altered considerably:
:*[[Kiefer]] has filched the [[sizzling stone]] off of [[Pike]] and brought a tablet fragment with him, using both on the statue after his late mother's ring doesn't work, saving the player the trouble of walking back and forth across Estard to acquire them
:*A voice speaks through the statue and instructs the {{Hero 7}} and Kiefer to complete puzzles hidden through the island to obtain three fragment shards in order to be granted access to the shrine. Eventually, the voice that instructed them through the statue is revealed to be The Caretaker when Auster and Kiefer finally gain access to the Shrine of Mysteries.
:*[[Dermot]] the hermit has locked the way to one of these puzzles after being unable to complete it in his youth
*Beyond the opening the game is considerably more non-linear than before, allowing players to tackle the problems of the past in nearly any order provided the requisite tablet fragments have been found
*The player also has more agency within a given island scenario than before. For example the player's decisions influence the strength of the boss sealing [[Ballymolloy]] and the ending of that adventure can be slightly altered
*The [[Rainbow Cove]] is now accessible from the overworld, instead of needing to enter through the [[Shrine of Mysteries]]
*Fragment locations have been changed and a checklist has been added to the system menu to keep track of them
*The story of the present-day [[Roamers]] has been altered so that [[Aishe]] joins the party much sooner than in past versions
*New scenarios that elaborate on the {{Hero 7}} and [[Maribel]]'s childhood have been added
*New scenario featuring an older [[Kiefer]] has been added
*A battle arena has been added, with one section including the three archfiends from the [[Erdrick Trilogy]]
*Several new monsters have been added to the game's bestiary in addition to the three archfiends, ranging from common enemies such as [[slimecicle]]s and [[Toady|toadies]] to boss characters such as [[Atlas]], [[Robbin' 'Ood]], and even [[Xenlon]]
*The fog over [[Vogograd]] at [[Mount Gora]] by [[Gasputin]] is now generated by [[hammerhood]]s instead of [[forky pig]]s

===Cut content===
*The woodcutter and his cabin east of [[Pilchard Bay]] have been removed
*The [[El Ciclo]], [[Gröndal]], & [[Providence]] scenarios have been removed
*The casinos, the [[Excellence Grading Organisation]], the [[The Haven|Immigrant Town]], and [[Monster Meadows]] sidequests have been removed
*The vocation uniforms seen in the 3DS version have been removed, with characters retaining their default appearance as in the PSX original
===Battle changes===
*All five heroes can now travel together, with the fifth being a backup character to be swapped in at will during battle
*Just like the 3DS remake, random encounters have been replaced with on-screen monsters
*The player can now attack monsters outside of battle for minor damage and even one-shot weaklings, similar to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_Mario_(video_game) Nintendo's Paper Mario]
*New spells have been added, such as the [[Crag]], [[Deceleratle]], [[Frizz Cracker]], [[Kerfrizz]], & [[Moreheal]] spells, and fourth-tier attack spells such as [[Kaswooshle]]
*The [[Woosh]]-family of spells now target random foes instead of a single group. The range increases by tier, such as Woosh hitting 2~3 foes & [[Swoosh]] hitting 2~4
*New skills have been added, such as [[Clap Trap]], [[Hip Drop]], [[Hymn of Light]], and [[Kiss Me Deadly]]
*Certain abilities have had their MP cost rebalanced, such as [[Maelstrom]] taking 16 MP instead of 12
*The {{Charm}}, {{Deftness}}, {{Magical Mending}}, and {{Magical Might}} stats have been added
:*As a result the {{Style}} and {{Wisdom}} stats have been removed
*Shields have a chance to block 100% of a physical attack's damage as in {{Dragon Quest IX}}, {{Dragon Quest X}}, and {{Dragon Quest XI}}
===Vocation changes===
*Vocation advancement is no longer based on the number of battles fought while in a given profession, instead using a secondary experience point system where stronger enemies award more points than weaker ones
*New exclusive starter vocations have been added for every character to increase their ability repertoire in the early portions of the game before accessing {{Alltrades Abbey 7}}
:*For example Ruff starts in the [[Wolf Boy]] (オオカミ少年) vocation and Aishe begins as [[Destiny's Dancer]]
*Characters can now take up two vocations simultaneously in a featured dubbed moonlighting
*All beginner-grade vocations now have passive traits instead of only the [[Dancer]], [[Martial Artist]], [[Sailor]], & [[Thief]]
*All vocations now feature exclusive perk abilities that trigger when a character is thoroughly worked up in battle and selects the [[Let Loose]] command, ranging from powerful attacks to life-saving buffs
*All spells and skills learned through a vocation are now tied to that vocation, meaning for instance that a [[Pirate]] will not be able to perform the [[Flying Knee]] skill unless the character is also moonlighting as a [[Martial Artist]]. This restriction is stricter than that found in the Nintendo 3DS remake, in which all abilities learned through beginner-grade vocations were permanently available to a character, but it also adds another layer of strategy in assigning vocations and reduces the overabundance of techniques that cluttered a character's command menu in past versions of the game
:*The {{Hero 7}}'s exclusive spells, [[The Great Leveller]] and [[The Greater Leveller]], are permanently tied to him regardless of his vocation
*Monster vocations have been removed and [[monster heart]]s have become a new type of accessory that grant monster-themed traits to characters, similar to the Monster Battle Road badges in ''Dragon Quest X'' and [[List of medals in Dragon Quest Treasures|medals in ''Dragon Quest Treasures'']]
*The [[Monster Master]] vocation replaces the [[Monster Masher (vocation)|Monster Masher vocation]]
*Characters can change vocations on the fly after being given the [[career sphere]] by [[High Priestess Jacqueline]], which is automatically assigned to a shortcut button. Using it will allow Jacqueline to telepathically change a character's vocation, and in the present her descendant [[Jacqui]] will handle the duties
==Development==
In a brief video published on the day of the game's announcement, producer [[Takeshi Ichikawa]] states that the subtitled of "Reimagined" was chosen as the game changed so much of the original's content. The narrative has been reworked extensively, with new scenarios being added while others were removed to improve the original game's infamous pacing. [[Yuji Horii]] notes that searching for [[fragment]]s is much easier than before. Real-life figurines were scanned to create the in-game models for the six main characters, with the developers dubbing this approach the "diorama style". These figurines were created by [https://www.st-nova.jp/ Studio Nova], a celebrated atelier company founded in 1970<ref>https://x.com/stnova1970/status/1971427702130577704</ref>, and the studio's work was then used as the template to base the secondary characters and monsters on. A panel previewing the game was held on September 26th 2025 for the Tokyo Game Show, and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVWhtrFifPA live-streamed on youtube]. During the panel Horii announced which scenarios and features from past versions of the game would be cut for this remake, in addition to showing footage exploring [[Aeolus Vale]].

'''Hornpipe''' is a nautically themed dance in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. It has a chance of making a single enemy dance, making them lose a turn.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''===
ShipDance is a hybrid ability learned by advancing to rank 5 as a [[Sailor]] or [[Dancer]] immediately after completing the other. In the 3DS version, hybrid abilities no longer exist and Hornpipe is learned normally by advancing to rank 3 as a Sailor. Functionally, it works exactly the same as the skill [[Sultry Dance]].

==Etymology==
The hornpipe is a lively dance associated with sailors, typically performed by one person.

*New scenario featuring an older [[Kiefer]] has been added
*A battle arena has been added, with one section including the three archfiends from the [[Erdrick Trilogy]]
*Several new monsters have been added to the game's bestiary in addition to the three archfiends, ranging from common enemies such as [[slimecicle]]s and [[Toady|toadies]] to boss characters such as [[Atlas]], [[Robbin' 'Ood]], and even [[Xenlon]]
*The fog over [[Vogograd]] at [[Mount Gora]] by [[Gasputin]] is now generated by [[Hammerhood]]s instead of [[Forky pig]]s

===Cut content===
*The [[El Ciclo]], [[Gröndal]], & [[Providence]] scenarios have been removed
*The casinos, the [[Excellence Grading Organisation]], the [[The Haven|Immigrant Town]], and [[Monster Meadows]] sidequests have been removed
*The vocation uniforms seen in the 3DS version have been removed, with characters retaining their default appearance as in the PSX original
===Battle changes===
*All five heroes can now travel together, with the fifth being a backup character to be swapped in at will during battle
*Just like the 3DS remake, random encounters have been replaced with on-screen monsters
*Weakling monsters are instantly defeated upon making contact with the player, similar to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EarthBound Nintendo's EarthBound]
*New spells have been added, such as the [[Crag]], [[Deceleratle]], [[Frizz Cracker]], [[Kerfrizz]], & [[Moreheal]] spells, and fourth-tier attack spells such as [[Kaswooshle]]
:*The [[Woosh]]-family of spells now target random foes instead of a single group. The range increases by tier, such as Woosh hitting 2~3 foes & [[Swoosh]] hitting 2~4
*New skills have been added, such as [[Clap Trap]], [[Hip Drop]], [[Hymn of Light]], and [[Kiss Me Deadly]]
*Certain abilities have had their MP cost rebalanced, such as [[Maelstrom]] taking 16 MP instead of 12
*The {{Charm}}, {{Deftness}}, {{Magical Mending}}, and {{Magical Might}} stats have been added
:*As a result the {{Style}} and {{Wisdom}} stats have been removed
*Shields have a chance to block 100% of a physical attack's damage as in {{Dragon Quest IX}}, {{Dragon Quest X}}, and {{Dragon Quest XI}}
===Vocation changes===
*Vocation advancement is no longer based on the number of battles fought while in a given profession, instead using a secondary experience point system where stronger enemies award more points than weaker ones
*New exclusive starter vocations have been added for every character to increase their ability repertoire in the early portions of the game before accessing {{Alltrades Abbey 7}}
:*For example Ruff starts in the [[Wolf Boy]] (オオカミ少年) vocation and Aishe begins as [[Destiny's Dancer]]
*Characters can now take up two vocations simultaneously in a featured dubbed moonlighting
*All beginner-grade vocations now have passive traits instead of only the [[Dancer]], [[Martial Artist]], [[Sailor]], & [[Thief]]
*All vocations now feature exclusive perk abilities that trigger when a character is thoroughly worked up in battle and selects the [[Let Loose]] command, ranging from powerful attacks to life-saving buffs
*All spells and skills learned through a vocation are now tied to that vocation, meaning for instance that a [[Pirate]] will not be able to perform the [[Flying Knee]] skill unless the character is also moonlighting as a [[Martial Artist]]. This restriction is stricter than that found in the Nintendo 3DS remake, in which all abilities learned through beginner-grade vocations were permanently available to a character, but it also adds another layer of strategy in assigning vocations and reduces the overabundance of techniques that cluttered a character's command menu in past versions of the game
:*The {{Hero 7}}'s exclusive spells, [[The Great Leveller]] and [[The Greater Leveller]], are permanently tied to him regardless of his vocation
*Monster vocations have been removed and [[monster heart]]s have become a new type of accessory that grant monster-themed traits to characters, similar to the Monster Battle Road badges in ''Dragon Quest X'' and [[List of medals in Dragon Quest Treasures|medals in ''Dragon Quest Treasures'']]
*The [[Monster Master]] vocation replaces the [[Monster Masher (vocation)|Monster Masher vocation]]
*Characters can change vocations on the fly after being given the [[career sphere]] by [[High Priestess Jacqueline]], which is automatically assigned to a shortcut button. Using it will allow Jacqueline to telepathically change a character's vocation, and in the present her descendant [[Jacqui]] will handle the duties
==Development==
In a brief video published on the day of the game's announcement, producer [[Takeshi Ichikawa]] states that the subtitled of "Reimagined" was chosen as the game changed so much of the original's content. The narrative has been reworked extensively, with new scenarios being added while others were removed to improve the original game's infamous pacing. [[Yuji Horii]] notes that searching for [[fragment]]s is much easier than before. Real-life figurines were scanned to create the in-game models for the six main characters, with the developers dubbing this approach the "diorama style". These figurines were created by [https://www.st-nova.jp/ Studio Nova], a celebrated atelier company founded in 1970<ref>https://x.com/stnova1970/status/1971427702130577704</ref>, and the studio's work was then used as the template to base the secondary characters and monsters on. A panel previewing the game was held on September 26th 2025 for the Tokyo Game Show, and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVWhtrFifPA live-streamed on youtube]. During the panel Horii announced which scenarios and features from past versions of the game would be cut for this remake, in addition to showing footage exploring [[Aeolus Vale]].

Monolog

The '''Monolog''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}.

Introduced in the {{DQMSeries}}, it is an uprooted tree that floats with the help of a pair of wings.

==Characteristics==
Monologs are great green tree trunks with a paired with a pair of batty wings, covered in weirdly webbed skin, that they use to fly frighteningly through the battlefield, forever staring with their freaky blinking and stern single eye. Their wicked tentacle-like roots flop and flail slightly in the air, waiting until the unspeakably frightening creature slams itself into the ground and takes root, just long enough for the roots themselves to dig through the ground and erupt under enemies, deftly causing damage. As if their appearance alone wasn't enough to cause chaos and [[confusion]], they are also armed with infuriating '''[[Fuddle]]''' spell, allowing them to confuse all adventurers in a single cast. For some unknown reason they are deeply connected with the '''[[Bag o' laughs]]''', always ready to come to their aid when called as an ally. Maybe the bags themselves are made from fibers from the terrifying floating trees.

As flying enemies, monologs take extra damage from both [[Flying Knee]] and [[Wing-Clipper]]. Oddly enough, they also take extra damage from [[Undead Undoer]], despite no indication that the monster is undead in any way.

Dread Admirals reappear in the game from 7.5 onwards, being encountered in [[Pluvi Isle]]. They retain their Burning Breath, but trade out their Paralysis Attack for [[Call Companions|calling in more of their kind]].

'''Mariella''' is a recurring character in most versions of {{Dragon Quest II}}, having been elevated to the status of [[Hargon]]'s second-in-command in {{DQ2HD}}.
==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
Mariella was one of the unnamed bunny girls who appear next to the [[King of Midenhall]] in the illusion created by Hargon in his [[Hall of Hargon|citadel]], which [[Yuji Horii]] revealed in a 2025 interview<ref>一敵方には、ミリエラという新キャラも登場しますね。
早坂: ミリエラは新キャラではなく、実はSFC版からいるんですよ。ハーゴンの神殿に初めて到着したとき、王様の横にいるバニーちゃんです。彼女も、そこから深掘りして生まれました。
堀井: 『DQI』で竜王のセリフでびっくりさせたから、『DQII』ではどうびっくりさせようかと思って作ったのが、あの幻のお城なんですよね。
早坂: 横にバニーちゃんがいるあたりが、すごく堀井さんらしいです(笑)。あのバニーちゃんが今回は強敵として登場しますので! ドラゴンクエスト1&2 LEGENDARY GUIDEBOOK (Vジャンプブックス ISBN：978-4-08-779830-2</ref>. When the [[Eye of Rubiss]] is used to dispel the illusion, the bunny girls are revealed to be [[batmandrill]]s and attack the [[Scions of Erdrick]] when spoken to.

==={{DQ2HD}}===
Mariella has been written into a proper character for the HD remake, and is now Hargon's fanatically devoted servant. Her loyalty does not extend to her fellow high-ranking fiends, whom she openly despises, nor to the subordinates she uses as disposable tools. The animosity is mutual in both cases, with [[Belial]] going so far as to instructing the Scions of Erdrick on how to throw Mariella's [[Den of Inequity|deepsea base]] into chaos and her peons abandoning her when they assume they are under attack.

'''Dragon Quest VII Reimagined''' is the second remake of {{Dragon Quest VII}}, announced on September 12th 2025. Unlike the [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake released in 2013 that implemented modest balance adjustments to the original, ''Reimagined'' is a total reworking of the adventure that changes several elements to provide a different experience. Certain aspects that were added in the Nintendo 3DS remake have been retained, such as [[Ruff]] riding on the back of his adoptive mother and the unnamed {{Faerie}} guide dwelling in the [[Shrine of Mysteries]], newly dubbed [[The Caretaker]].
==New features==
===Presentation changes===
*Characters are displayed in a handcrafted artstyle and the environments are presented as dioramas, not unlike Square-Enix's [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantasian Fantasian]
*The proportionate size of characters in relation to the environments has been returned to the original [[PlayStation]] scale, compared to the compressed 3DS version
*A character's weapon and shield are now displayed in battle similar to {{Dragon Quest VIII}} and {{Dragon Quest XI}}

===Character changes===
*[[Barbatos]]es now have their usual appearance compared to both prior versions of the games.

===Scenario changes===
*The game is considerably more non-linear than before, allowing players to tackle the problems of the past in nearly any order provided the requisite tablet fragments have been found
*Fragment locations have been changed
*New scenarios that elaborate on the {{Hero 7}} and [[Maribel]]'s childhood have been added
*New scenario featuring an older [[Kiefer]] has been added
*A battle arena has been added, with one section including the three archfiends from the [[Erdrick Trilogy]]
*Several new monsters have been added to the game's bestiary in addition to the three archfiends, ranging from common enemies such as [[slimecicle]]s and [[Toady|toadies]] to boss characters such as [[Atlas]], [[Robbin' 'Ood]], and even [[Xenlon]]

===Cut content===
*The [[El Ciclo]], [[Gröndal]], & [[Providence]] scenarios have been removed
*The casinos, the [[Excellence Grading Organisation]], the [[The Haven|Immigrant Town]], and [[Monster Meadows]] sidequests have been removed
*The vocation uniforms seen in the 3DS version have been removed, with characters retaining their default appearance as in the PSX original
===Battle changes===
*All five heroes can now travel together, with the fifth being a backup character to be swapped in at will during battle
*Just like the 3DS remake, random encounters have been replaced with on-screen monsters
*Weakling monsters are instantly defeated upon making contact with the player, similar to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EarthBound Nintendo's EarthBound]
*New spells and skills have been added, such as the [[Frizz Cracker]] and [[Moreheal]] spells, and fourth-tier attack spells such as [[Kaswooshle]]
*Certain abilities have had their MP cost rebalanced, such as [[Maelstrom]] taking 16 MP instead of 12
*The {{Charm}}, {{Deftness}}, {{Magical Mending}}, and {{Magical Might}} stats have been added
:*As a result the {{Style}} and {{Wisdom}} stats have been removed
*Shields have a chance to block 100% of a physical attack's damage as in {{Dragon Quest IX}}, {{Dragon Quest X}}, and {{Dragon Quest XI}}
===Vocation changes===
*Vocation advancement is no longer based on the number of battles fought while in a given profession, instead using a secondary experience point system where stronger enemies award more points than weaker ones
*New exclusive starter vocations have been added for every character to increase their ability repertoire in the early portions of the game before accessing {{Alltrades Abbey 7}}
:*For example Ruff starts in the "wolf child" (オオカミ少年) vocation
*Characters can now take up two vocations simultaneously in a featured dubbed moonlighting
*All beginner-grade vocations now have passive traits instead of only the [[Dancer]], [[Martial Artist]], [[Sailor]], & [[Thief]]
*All vocations now feature exclusive perk abilities that trigger when a character is thoroughly worked up in battle and selects the [[Let Loose]] command, ranging from powerful attacks to life-saving buffs
*All spells and skills learned through a vocation are now tied to that vocation, meaning for instance that a [[Pirate]] will not be able to perform the [[Flying Knee]] skill unless the character is also moonlighting as a [[Martial Artist]]. This restriction is stricter than that found in the Nintendo 3DS remake, in which all abilities learned through beginner-grade vocations were permanently available to a character, but it also adds another layer of strategy in assigning vocations and reduces the overabundance of techniques that cluttered a character's command menu in past versions of the game
:*The {{Hero 7}}'s exclusive spells, [[The Great Leveller]] and [[The Greater Leveller]], are permanently tied to him regardless of his vocation
*Monster vocations have been removed and [[monster heart]]s have become a new type of accessory that grant monster-themed traits to characters, similar to the Monster Battle Road badges in ''Dragon Quest X'' and [[List of medals in Dragon Quest Treasures|medals in ''Dragon Quest Treasures'']]
*The [[Monster Master]] vocation replaces the [[Monster Masher (vocation)|Monster Masher vocation]]
*Characters can change vocations on the fly after being given a special orb by [[High Priestess Jacqueline]], which is automatically assigned to a shortcut button
==Development==
In a brief video published on the day of the game's announcement, producer [[Takeshi Ichikawa]] states that the subtitled of "Reimagined" was chosen as the game changed so much of the original's content. The narrative has been reworked extensively, with new scenarios being added while others were removed to improve the original game's infamous pacing. [[Yuji Horii]] notes that searching for [[fragment]]s is much easier than before. Real-life figurines were scanned to create the in-game models for the six main characters, with the developers dubbing this approach the "diorama style". These figurines were created by [https://www.st-nova.jp/ Studio Nova], a celebrated atelier company founded in 1970<ref>https://x.com/stnova1970/status/1971427702130577704</ref>, and the studio's work was then used as the template to base the secondary characters and monsters on. A panel previewing the game was held on September 26th 2025 for the Tokyo Game Show, and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVWhtrFifPA live-streamed on youtube]. During the panel Horii announced which scenarios and features from past versions of the game would be cut for this remake, in addition to showing footage exploring [[Aeolus Vale]].

'''Wizardly Waft''' is a skill that grants a modest amount of MP to the party every other turn.
==Appearances==
==={{DQ2HD}}===
Wizardly Waft is learned by the [[Princess of Cannock]] at Level 25. It costs 8 MP and restores a small amount of MP to the whole party every turn.
==={{DQ10}}===
Appearing in the Offline version of the game, it is learned by [[Fuura]] after investing 12 skill points into her Wind Riding skill tree and costs 0 MP to use.
==={{DQM3}}===
Wizardly Waft rarely allows the entire party to recovery MP at the end even-numbered turns, always triggering on even-numbered turns in multiplayer battles. The amount restored is half of the possessor's level with a range of 5~10 MP. The trait is learned by the following monsters of any size:

Pazuzu's role in the [[Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake|HD-2D Remake]] of his debut is set to be more or less the same, but appears in the [[Great Conflagration]] alongside its 2 [[Whackolyte]] guardians protecting the [[False Idol]] while he eats bananas from a pile. When the Scions of Erdrick confront him and the 2 Whackolytes, they engage in a magic fight, killing 1 Whackolyte while the other was wounded by the [[Prince of Cannock]]'s [[Kazap]], which also destroyed Pazuzu's pile of bananas, causing the monstrous monkey to fight the Scions of Erdrick in anger.

He can be faced in Chapter 4, Episode 3 of the event quests entitled The Dark Pantheon: Pazuzu, as well as in the [[Hall of Hargon]] before facing [[Hargon]] and [[Malroth]]. Some of Pazuzu's abilities include [[Cutter-Upper]], [[Snooze]], [[Kasizz]], and [[Kaboom]].

==Etymology==
In ancient Mesopotamia, Pazuzu is the name of a demon who was the personification of the western wind and held kingdom over wind demons. He was known for bringing famine during dry seasons and locusts during rainy seasons. Although he is considered an evil spirit, Pazuzu could also be called upon to ward off other malicious spirits, as well.

==Characteristics==
'''Atlas''' is a giant orange [[cyclops]], wearing a blue toga and wielding a massive club. He is the first miniboss encountered in the [[Hall of Hargon]], and is not particularly difficult as such. Like his lesser brethren, he relies on brutal physical hits to destroy his enemies. Atlas is a true giant amongst giants, towering over his pallet-swaps and regularly creating lakes just by traipsing about.

Defeating Atlas using the [[Zam]] spell is the objective of [[Template:DQIXQuest/117|Quest #117]].

{{spoiler|start}}
In this game, his speech before the battle is hinted that he is one of the ten {{MFamilies}}s that were created by [[Zenus]] remains, rather than a member of the Unholy Trinity (due to [[Corvus]]' attack): in fact he says "WHY YOU TURN INTO TREE!?", doubtlessly referring to [[Celestria]]'s transformation into a tree.

The real Atlas reappears in the game as the first coin boss, as well as the Strong [[Nelgel]] boss fight, being summoned with [[Pazuzu]] and [[Belial]]. While he once again does {{Desperate attack}}s, he can do a [[Seismic Shock]]. In addition, his Origin forme can be fought during the Breaking World sidestory.

Atlas is the ultimate antagonist of Chapter 3. He holds dominion of the island of [[Moonbrooke]] and is the top authority of the portion of the [[Children of Hargon]] on the island. He enjoys toying with the [[Builder (Dragon Quest Builders 2)|Builder]] and the people of [[Moonbrooke]] by waiting for them to become hopeful-by rebuilding Moonbrooke castle-before attacking. He is defeated by a massive canon built by the Builder with the help of the King of [[Moonbrooke]].

Additionally, a shadow fiend manifestation of Atlas appears in [[Hall of Hargon|Hargon's Castle]], reflecting his appearance in {{Dragon Quest II}} in the same location. Though he simply dissipates without putting up much of a fight. Of Hargon's top three, Atlas is the only one to appear in the story proper, [[Belial]]'s and [[Pazuzu]]'s shadow fiend vestiges are their only appearances in ''[[Dragon Quest Builders 2]]''.

'''Belial''' is a boss from {{Dragon Quest II}} and recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}.

He is a more powerful version of the [[archdemon]] and the last in a trio of bosses the [[Luminaries]] must face as they climb [[Hall of Hargon|Hargon's tower]]. Later games would use the monster as a species instead of a specific individual, similar to his fellow cultist [[Pazuzu]].

Belial's role in the [[Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake|HD-2D Remake]] of his debut is set to be more or less the same, but has 2 new scenes, one of which has him incinerate a [[babygoyle]] and a black [[manguini]] monster with a fire spell for failing an unknown task, while the other has him threatening the [[Elves and Faeries|Faeries]] in the [[Shrine of Rain]].

'''''Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake''''' is a full re-imagining of the first two titles in the ''Dragon Quest'' series in Team Asano's famed HD-2D artstyle which fuses high-quality pixel art with 3D graphics. It includes a full remake of ''[[Dragon Quest]]'' and ''[[Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line|Dragon Quest II]]'', continuing the compilation tradition begun in 1993 with ''[[Dragon Quest I & II]]'' for the Super Famicom.

This dual pack was announced following the release of ''[[Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake]]'' on November 14 2024. It will be released on October 30, 2025 for the [[Nintendo Switch]], [[Nintendo Switch 2]], [[PlayStation 5]], [[Xbox Series X/S]], and [[Steam]]. For the Nintendo Switch 2 version, physical copies will only come with a game-key card, and an upgrade path from the original Nintendo Switch version has been ruled out by the publisher.

==New features==
===Scenario changes===
* The [[Princess of Cannock]] is now a party member accompanying the Scions of Erdrick on their quest to stop [[Hargon]].
* New boss battles added for both games such as the [[Goregoyle]], [[Lunagriff]], [[Nekomancer]], and the uncanny descendant of [[Robbin' 'Ood]] and [[Robbin' 'oodlum|his henchmen]].
* New story segments such as [[Belial]] incinerating a [[Goyling]] and a [[Midnight manguini]], as well as threatening the [[Elves and Faeries|faeries]] in the [[Rain Shrine]], in addition to [[Pazuzu]] appearing in the [[Great Conflagration]] alongside his 2 [[whackolyte]] subordinates.
* In ''Dragon Quest I'' the Hero will help the faeries craft together the [[5 Sigils|Five Sigils]], which will be later collected by his descendants.
* The Scions of Erdrick now have to collect medals from their home kingdoms of [[Midenhall]], [[Cannock]], and [[Moonbrooke]] in order to be worthy of visiting the [[Pillar of Winds]].
* The [[5 Sigils|Sun Sigil]] is now found on a pedestal near the outskirts of the [[List of shrines and teleportals in Dragon Quest II|Fire Shrine]].
* [[Mermaids]] have been added to ''Dragon Quest II'', along with an undersea kingdom named [[Mersea]].
* The [[Ship]] in ''Dragon Quest II'' can now travel underwater and explore the [[Ocean Floor]] with the help of the mermaids.
* The [[Tombola]] minigame will receive some new improvements.
* Besides both games having locations from the [[Alefgard]] originally exclusive to {{Dragon Quest III}}, {{Dragon Quest II}} has most of the [[Alefgard]] locations intact despite the overworld map's smaller size.
* It's confirmed that ''Dragon Quest II'' will have a new endgame scenario if players have first cleared ''Dragon Quest I'', and most importantly, have clear game save data of ''Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake'' on the same platform.
* [[Mini Medal|Mini Medals]] have been added to both games.

===Presentation===
* Re-imagined locations and HD-quality sprites.
* Certain areas have been slightly modified to account for the perspective changing from the classic top-down view to the pop up book style found in other HD2D titles.
* Orchestral soundtrack.
* [[Torch|Torches]] now fully illuminate caves, nixing the use of the [[Glow]] spell.
===Character changes===
* The [[Prince of Cannock]] has been buffed considerably, as opposed to how weak he infamously was originally.
* The Wrecktors and Mummies have their current appearance from the Battle Road series for the former and the SNES remake of ''{{Dragon Quest III}}'' for the latter, while Whackolytes have their appearance from ''[[Dragon Quest X]]'' onwards, rather than using their old appearances.
* The [[Hawk man|hawk men]] and [[gargoyle]]s now have dialogue during the siege on [[Moonbrooke]].
===Battle changes===
* The [[Hero (Dragon Quest)|hero of Dragon Quest I]] now battles multiple enemies at once rather than only one at a time originally.
* New skills and spells have been added to the repertoire of the heroes, such as [[Dragon Slash]] and [[Kacrack]]. These can be learned by finding ability scrolls located from side-quests as well as in treasure chests from dungeons and hidden areas.
* The [[5 Sigils|Five Sigils]] each have their own special effects in battle after they're obtained. The Sun Sigil makes abilities deal critical damage. The Moon Sigil helps spells go haywire and deal critical damage. The Star Sigil has allies recover {{MP}} whenever they use the Defend command. The Water Sigil can enhance effects from using items. And the Soul Sigil briefly upgrades certain skills and spells with the right conditions. Selecting them under a green marker has them be used in a stronger form, such as turning a Dragon Slash into [[Double Dragon Slash]].
* [[Man o' war|Men o' war]] now use [[Paralysis Attack]] just like in appearances from ''Dragon Quest III'' onwards, while [[drackolyte]]s now cast [[Bang]] just like in appearances from ''Dragon Quest X'' onwards.
* Players can now view Enemy Info while battling them by clicking the right stick.
* Targeting a monster with an elemental attack it is vulnerable to displays a red marker over it, and doing so with a resisted element displays the marker in blue.
* Enemies from later entries of the main series and enemies of the first entry for ''II'' are added in ''Dragon Quest I'' and ''Dragon Quest II'', such as [[bubble slime]]s in the former and [[scornet]]s and drackolytes in the latter and monsters from the [[Zenithia Trilogy]] such as [[terminonatator]]s and [[cauldrone]]s.

===Others===
* Having saved data of ''Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake'' allows players to receive animal costumes for the playable characters. For the Hero of ''Dragon Quest I'', it is the [[dog suit]], based on a shiba-inu. For the heroes of ''Dragon Quest II'', it is a [[cat suit]], which are based on the different colours of cats.

==Update history==
===October 30th, 2025===

Great Conflagration

2025-10-23T00:00:17Z

69.123.179.122:

{{LocationInfobox
|game = {{Dragon Quest II}}
|title = Great Conflagration
|type= Dungeon
|image = [[File:DQ II Android Sea Cave Entrance 2.jpg|250px]]

}}

The '''Great Conflagration''' is an undersea volcano dungeon in {{Dragon Quest II}}, and the first volcanic area in the series.

It is located in the ocean of eastern [[Torland]].

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
The volcano is normally surrounded by shoals. This keeps the [[Luminaries]] from gaining access to it until later in the game. After acquiring the [[Moonshard]], the [[Luminaries|Heroes]] can remove the shoals by using it in front of the cave entrance.

The cave is one of the more difficult dungeons in the game, along with the [[Cave to Rendarak]]. There are multiple basements with many misleading and dead end staircases, along with powerful enemies on the lower basement levels. In addition, this is the only location in the game where lava is a hazard which will damage the [[Luminaries|heroes]] with each step. However, it can be avoided like other hazards with [[Safe Passage]].

Also included in the cave are {{Chest}} which when opened sap some of your characters' {{HP}}. Note that these traps were replaced by a poison trap in ''[[Dragon Quest I & II]]'', which only affects the character opening the {{Chest}}.

====False Idol====
To get to the [[False Idol]], first find your way to floor B1. From there, head west down the passage, and take the second south opening. Continue west, and head north through the lava once you hit the wall. On floor B2, head past all the tempting staircases marked with torches, and follow the path around to the south. Take the first staircase you see on the main path. On floor B3, go straight northwest into the lava lake, and take the only staircase. Now that you're on floor B4, simply follow the path around to the altar, and defeat the two [[Whackolyte]]s guarding the artifact.

==={{DQ1&2HD}}===
[[Pazuzu]] is also encountered there, though he is not fought alongside the 2 [[Whackolyte]]s, instead being a solo fight since one of the 2 Whackolytes was defeated by the Scions of Erdrick's magic, while the other was wounded by the Prince of Cannock's [[Kazap]], which also obliterated Pazuzu's banana pile.

==Etymology==
*A ''conflagration'' is a colossal fire that has spread to consume its surrounding area

Pazuzu

2025-10-22T23:59:55Z

69.123.179.122: I figured out that only Pazuzu is fought in the Great Conflagration, the 2 Whackolytes are not fought at all. Plus, him appearing in the Conflagration itself reminds me of his appearance in the Novel and CD Theater of the game.

'''Pazuzu''' is a satanic simian that first appeared as one of the three strongest demons in [[Hargon]]'s cult in {{Dragon Quest II}}.

Since then, it has shifted from a character to a species of {{MFamilies}}s, much like it's fellow demon like [[Belial]].

Pazuzu's role in the [[Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake|HD-2D Remake]] of his debut is set to be more or less the same, but appears in the [[Great Conflagration]] alongside its 2 [[Whackolyte]] guardians protecting the [[False Idol]] while he eats bananas from a pile. When the Scions of Erdrick confront him and the 2 Whackolytes, they engage in a magic fight, killing 1 Whackolyte while the other was wounded by the [[Prince of Cannock]]'s [[Kazap]], which also destroyed Pazuzu's pile of bananas, causing the monstrous monkey to fight the Scions of Erdrick in anger.

Pazuzu appears as a boss of the [[Demon family]] during the limited {{Dragon Quest II}} event. He can be faced in Chapter 4, Episode 3 of the event quests entitled The Dark Pantheon: Pazuzu, as well as in the [[Hall of Hargon]] before facing [[Hargon]] and [[Malroth]].

==Etymology==
In ancient Mesopotamia, Pazuzu is the name of a demon who was the personification of the western wind and held kingdom over wind demons. He was known for bringing famine during dry seasons and locusts during rainy seasons. Although he is considered an evil spirit, Pazuzu could also be called upon to ward off other malicious spirits, as well.

Whackolyte

2025-10-22T23:53:30Z

69.123.179.122:

{{Monster Infobox

|kanji=じごくのつかい
|romanji={{tt|Jigoku no tsukai|Hell's envoy}}

}}

The '''Whackolyte''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{DQ2}}.

They are evil priests with a wide array of spells at their fingertips.

==Characteristics==
In the previous localizations of {{Dragon Quest II}}, it was known as "Evil Clown" ("EvilClown" in the {{GBC}} version); however, it is a different {{MFamilies}} from the "EvilClown" that appeared in the old localization of {{Dragon Quest VII}}, which is now known as [[Wrecktor (Dragon Quest VII)|Wrecktor]] in the modern localization.

Whackolytes are {{Humanoid}} spellcasters that are distinguishable by their horned masks and the wicked spiked morning stars they wield in each hand. They wear white robes with the bat insignia of the [[Children of Hargon]] on the front and long capes with a jeweled brooch. The masks covering their heads have a singular red jewel "eye" on the front and the curved horns, the ends of their sleeves, and their capes are red, as well. When these mages reappeared many years later in {{X}}, their horns, ends of their sleeves, and capes all became green instead of red. This design has appeared in most modern depictions. In more modern appearances, the masked spellcasters began to be depicted with five fingers on their hands instead of four, like many other humanoid {{MFamilies}}s in the series. Their repertoire of spells consists of fire magic and various support spells, making them one of the few {{MFamilies}}s capable of healing their allies in battle.

In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version of {{VII}}, an alternate design for the Whackolyte appeared that has blue horns on its mask, a blue cape, blue at the ends of its sleeves, and only carrying a single [[Morning star]] in its hands.

In the original {{NES}} version, a Whackolyte (known as "Evil Clown" in the old localization) can be fought in [[Midenhall]] Castle. It is an optional fight that the player can elect to skip if they so choose. It carries the [[Lightning staff]] when the player defeats it. In the remakes, they were replaced by a [[Wrecktor (Dragon Quest VII)|Wrecktor]] (known as "Magus" in the old localization of {{II}} for {{Game Boy Color}}).

Automaton

2025-10-20T22:23:33Z

69.123.179.122: Automaton didn't appear in Caravan Heart nor the Dragon Quest Monsters 2 3DS remake. They appeared in Battle Road II Legend, Victory, and Dragon Quest Walk, in addition to Of the Stars

{{Monster Infobox
|title=Automaton

|firstappear={{DQ7}}
|old=ClockMech
}}

The '''Automaton''' is a mechanical {{MFamilies}} that appears as a regular enemy and boss in {{Dragon Quest VII}}.

==Characteristics==
Massive blue [[Machine family|mechanised men]] that trundle terrifyingly into battle armed with a massive man-sized axe and a bone mashing spiked mace, allowing them to lash out twice in a single turn. The great greasy teal-coloured engine is the technology behind their power and speed, keeping them going over long distances as they trudge across the land, with neon green wiring holding everything together in place of the nerves, bones and muscle of a living carbon based life form. They possess the same characteristic singular red "eye" as other mechanical enemies in the series like the [[Killing machine]]. When they use the striking '''[[Multislice]]''' skill they tuck their clunky legs into their bulky body and spin wild with their weapons drawn, damaging every single foe in a single slice.

==Story==
{{spoiler|start}}The Automatons are a part of an army of soldiers summoned by the [[Tinpot Dictator]] to lay waste to the country of [[Faraday]]. One of the Automatons malfunctions and is found by [[Thaddeus and Autonymus]]. They rewire and fix it to make it a weapon that can be used against the Automaton.{{spoiler|end}}

==Strategy==
Automatons can be encountered in the field in [[Faraday]] in the past. They can attack twice and hit everyone in the party with [[Multislice]].
[[Multislice]] does decreasing damage so whoever is in front will receive the brunt of the damage and whoever is last in position won't suffer as much. [[Ruff]]'s [[Aooo!]] skill has a chance of preventing the Automaton from using one of its turns, which may save you from its attack for a round or at least preventing them from attacking twice. Make liberal use of that. Defeating Automatons should have highest priority before any other enemies. Lucky players can receive an [[Iron axe]] as a drop from them, which is more powerful than any weapon that can be purchased from shops at that point and for the next few islands.

==Etymology==
The Automaton's original name in Japanese, ''karakuri hei'', is a reference to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karakuri_puppet karakuri puppets], a type of traditional mechanized puppet or automata that was made in Japan from the 17th to the 19th century. Some were small and used as home decorations that could serve tea or sake, but they were also life-sized karakuri puppets that were used for public theater performances or religious festivals.

Dream-Whisperer

2025-10-19T15:10:50Z

69.123.179.122:

{{Character
|Name=Dream-Whisperer
|Game={{DQ1&2HD}} {{Dragon Quest III}} {{DQ3HD}}
|Image=[[File:Dream-Whisperer official artwork.png|200px]]
|Sprite=[[File:Servant of Rubiss III HD sprite.png]]
|Japanese name=ルビスのつかい{{tt|*|In III}} 夢の妖精{{tt|*|In I HD-2D}}
|Roumaji=Rubisu no tsukai
|Race={{Faerie}}
|}}
The '''Dream-Whisperer''' is the servant to the Goddess [[Rubiss]] who was added to {{Dragon Quest III}} in the 1996 remake, where she assessed the {{Hero 3}}'s personality through the [[Dream Scenario]] in the game's opening. Her role has been expanded in the HD-2D remakes of the [[Erdrick Trilogy]] and the HD remake of the original game in particular, where she receives a proper name and is revealed to be the leader of the [[Elves and Faeries|faeries]] who dwell in [[Alefgard|the underworld]].

==Appearance and personality==
The Dream-Whisperer is a faerie and in the 1996 {{Super Famicom}} version of the game she used the same sprite as the [[Queen of Faeries]]. The HD-2D version gives her a design of her own, where she is a blonde woman wearing a red dress with puffy white shoulders. Her accessories are a pair of gold bracers with a matching brooch set with a large, green gem, and and a blue staff topped with a golden apple ornament set with another green gem. As with all faeries in the underworld she now has a set of four translucent wings.

Her personality is not conveyed through her dialogue in the 1996 version of the game beyond being an astute observer of [[human]] character and speaking in the laid-back, child-like manner typical of her kind. The additional lines of dialogue in the HD-2D version give her a proper sense of character, however, depicting her as a faithful devout to her Goddess who does all she can to aid in her restoration. She develops a certain fondness for the {{Hero 3}} over the course of the game through her dream guidance, having total confidence that they will bring peace to the world.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ1&2HD}}===
The Dream-Whisperer is attempting to summon Rubiss back to the world after the Goddess' disappearance, though she is driven off by the [[Dragonlord]]'s army.

==={{DQ3}}===
The servant of Rubiss speaks to the {{Hero 3}} in a dream on the morning of their sixteenth birthday, during which she poses a series of questions to assess the [[List of personality types in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake|personality]] of the world's savior. Depending on the player's answers her assessment can be rather blunt, and it is implied that she is the mysterious voice that speaks to the Hero upon the vanquishing of [[Baramos]].

Much later, after entering the underworld, the Hero will meet the servant of Rubiss face-to-face in the [[Shrine of the Spirit]]. Here she will give the player the [[Staff of Rain|staff of rain]] in order to be combined with the [[sunstone]] to create the [[Rainbow Drop|rainbow drop]] and reach the [[Zoma's Citadel|devil's castle]]. She will also make a half-hearted apology if she spoke too harshly of the Hero during the [[Dream Scenario]] evaluation at the beginning of the game. During the finale she will thank the Hero for saving her world, and tell them that [[Rubiss]] is looking forward to meeting them again some day.

==={{DQ3HD}}===
The servant of Rubiss has been promoted to a major character through the scenario additions to the game, where in she now watches over the Hero throughout the journey and gives the player guidance after major events. Specifically, she will speak in the Hero's dreams after obtaining the [[ship]] in [[Portoga]] to inform the player of the [[Six Orbs]] being vital to the quest's success, congratulate the Hero after slaying the wicked [[Orochi]], and tells the Hero to seek out the [[boatman's bone]] and the [[Mountaincleaver]] sword after bringing peace to [[Manoza]]. It is also confirmed that she is indeed the voice who speaks to the Hero after [[Baramos]]' defeat.

When speaking to her in the [[Shrine of the Spirit]], she will explain that chose to contact the Hero herself due to the Goddess' petrification. Her apology for any rudeness during the Dream Scenario is less flimsy as well, and gives the Hero clear instructions to free Rubiss from her [[Tower of Rubiss|eponymous tower]] where Zoma imprisoned her. After handing over the staff of rain she will take flight to spread glittering dust from her wings over the party, restoring their {{HP}} and {{MP}}. Her dialogue during the ending remains the same as in the 16-bit remake.

==Trivia==
*As the character had no given name prior to 2025 she was informally referred to by fans as the ''Servant of Rubiss''.

Monster Master

69.123.179.122:

The '''Monster Master''' (魔物使い ''Mamono Tsukai'') is a recurring [[vocation]] first introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest VI]]''. The vocation allows players to walk on the wild side with the finer details varying between titles, but it has also consistently focused on taming and [[Monster recruitment|making allies of monsters defeated in battle]].

==Localization history==
The profession is notable for frequently having its name changed even in the Japanese originals: it was changed to 魔物マスター (''Mamono Masutā'') in the [[Nintendo DS]] remake and it's subsequent ports, became 魔物ハンター (''Mamono Hantā'') in the seventh game, まもの使い (''Mamono Tsukai'') in the tenth game, まものマスター (''Mamono Masutā'') in both ''Stars'' and ''Walk''. In all ''Monsters'' titles the vocation is called the モンスターマスター (''Monsutā Masutā''). Not counting the alternate kanji and katakana spellings, this leaves the vocation with three distinct Japanese names.

In English the name was changed to Monster ''Masher'' for the seventh game to match the alteration in the original script but has since returned to being referred to as the Monster Master in peripheral media and spinoff titles, with two exceptions in {{DQTact}}. In the ''Terry's Wonderland'' event in ''Tact'' [[Terry|young Terry]] introduces himself as being a Monster ''Scout'' and the {{Hero 5}} of the fifth game has the title of Legendary Monster ''Wrangler'' in ''Tact''.

The term [[Monster Wrangler]] has seemingly replaced this vocation in the current English localization standard, being alluded to via the [[wrangler's ring]] item in {{DQB2}} in 2019, and later in the aforementioned ''Tact'' event before being given much wider exposure through {{DQM3}} in 2023 and {{DQ3HD}} in 2024.
==Appearances==
=={{DQ5}}==
While the Hero of ''Dragon Quest V'' has attributes and spells more akin to a physically stronger [[Priest]], he is referred to in peripheral media as the legendary monster tamer and is the first protagonist in the series' history to be able to recruit monsters.

=={{DQ6}}==
The M.M. suffers considerable reductions to their strength, resilience, HP, and MP in all versions of ''VI'', befitting a starting vocation characters are not meant to spend too much time in. Various [[Breath attack|breath skills]] are learned through the profession, in addition to the [[Puff!]] spell upon mastery.

In the original version of ''VI'', having a master in the party activates the chance that a monster [[Monster recruitment|will join you upon its defeat]], however this function was dropped in the [[Nintendo DS]] remake in lieu of Slime Buddies. Monster Master is one of the prerequisites for the [[Ranger]] vocation (along with [[Merchant]] and [[Thief]]).

=={{DQ9}}==
The monster master was originally planned to be a playable vocation in ''IX'', but this was scrapped at some point in development. The conceptual art depicts a boy wearing an outfit consisting entirely of animal hides and holding a gnarled staff.

===''[[Dragon Quest Monsters (series)|Monsters series]]''===
Generally speaking the protagonist of every game in the ''Monsters'' sub series was referred to as a Monster Master until the younger [[Terry]] made an appearance in {{DQTact}}, where he dubbed himself as a Monster Scout. With the release of {{DQM3}}, the term has been retired in the spinoff series for Monster Wrangler.
Certain titles will place more emphasis on this profession than others, such as treating it as a societal class in it's own right.

==''[[Dragon Quest of the Stars]]''==
The Monster Master utilizes breath attacks and enjoys excellent HP growth, but has mediocre growth in all other stats.

==''[[Dragon Quest Walk]]''==
[[Image:DQ Walk Monster Masters.jpg|right|200px]]
Monster Masters were added in a March 2022 update as part of the game's 2.5 year anniversary. Unlike the other advanced vocations, a character is able to become a Monster Master after befriending more than 35 types of monsters. Their weapons of choice are [[Wand]]s, [[Spear]]s, [[Claw Weapon Family|Claws]], and [[Whip]]s.

{{clear}}

==''[[Dragon Quest Monsters+]]''==
The basis of the manga is the exploration of what it really means to be a master of monsters, focusing on the bonds a tamer makes with their companions and how this strengthens the beasts will to fight. The vocation is treated as a proper societal class with its own distinct role and expectations within a community.
