The '''Metal King Shield''' is a recurring shield in the ''Dragon Quest'' series which first appeared in [[Dragon Quest V]]. As one could guess by the name, it is as durable as [[Metal king slime|metal king slimes]] and features one directly in its center.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ5}}===
The metal king shield has a defence bonus of +70, and reduces the accuracy of snooze, fuddle, dazzle, and instant death instead of providing protection against magic or breath attacks. It can be acquired in exchange for 43 [[Mini medal|mini medals]] (50 in the remakes) at the [[Medal King's Palace]]., and can be equipped by the {{Hero 5}}, [[Hero's Son (Dragon Quest V)|his son]], [[Sancho]], [[Tuppence]], and several monster recruits.

==={{DQ6}}===
The metal king shield has +70 defense and +40 style. It also reduces frizz, sizz, bang, and breath damage by 30. The [[Hero (Dragon Quest VI)|Hero]], [[Carver]], [[Milly]], [[Nevan]], [[Terry]], [[Amos]] and all slime allies can equip it. It is obtained as a reward for beating the Expert class in the Arena in [[Slimopolis]]. Since this class can be challenged only twice, it is possible to obtain only two metal king shields.

==={{DQ7}}===
The shield possesses the same attributes as in the previous game, and is the reward for amassing 90 mini medals. It can be equipped by all characters save for [[Maribel]].

==={{DQ8}}===
The Metal King Shield has a defence bonus of +65 and reduces breath damage by 30 points. All characters can equip this shield and in the 3DS port the {{Hero 8}} can change his appearance if he wears it along with the rest of the metal slime equipment.

Recipe: Metal King Shield = [[Ruinous shield]] + [[Saint's ashes]] + [[Orichalcum]]

The '''Liquid metal shield''' is a rather rare shield in the {{DQSeries}}, having been supplanted by the [[Metal king shield]] in ''[[Dragon Quest V]]''.

It is an immensely durable shield, easily among the top tier in each game it appears in.
==Appearances==
==={{DQ4}}===
The Liquid metal shield has a defence bonus of +60, and casts [[Snub]] when used as a tool in battle. In the remakes of ''IV'', it also cuts fire and ice breath damage by 40 points.
In the NES version, players can obtain the shield for 50,000 coins at [[Endor]]'s casino, and can be equipped by [[Borya]], [[Kiryl]], [[Maya]], [[Meena]], and [[Sofia]].
In the DS, Android, and iOS versions, the Liquid metal shield is no longer sold at Endor's casino, but there's only one shield in the game, and it can be only obtained by King Minikin for 52 mini medals. It can now be equipped by [[Ragnar]] and [[Psaro]].

The instruction manual for creating the shield, the ''[[List of fun-size forge recipe book locations in Dragon Quest XI|In Fine Fettle with Liquid Metal]]'', is found in a treasure chest inside the [[Fortress of Fear]].
===''[[Dragon Quest Swords]]''===
This shield is generally considered the most difficult item to acquire in the game due to high randomness associated with winning it by playing the [[Tombola|tombola game]] held within [[Castle Avalonia]]. Note that the player must win the special prize twice in order to receive it. It increases the [[Hero (Dragon Quest Swords)|Hero's]] defence by+10 and can be sold for 8,000.

The '''Metal slime shield''' is a nigh-impenetrable buckler based on the [[Metal slime|infamous globs]].

'''Ashlynn''' is a character in the {{DQSeries}} that appears as a playable party member in {{DQ6}}. She starts as a mage-type character and learns the powerful spell, [[Magic Burst]], without use of the vocation system.

==Appearance and personality==
Ashlynn wears a vivid blue tunic with charcoal sleeves ending in saffron gloves, a tall belt with a silver buckle, brown leather shoes with black socks, and a scarlet cape. Her belt has a clip for holding her whip when she is not using it. She also sports one of the wildest hairstyles [[Akira Toriyama|Toriyama]] has ever put to pen.

Ashlynn joins the party with severe amnesia, and quickly grows close to them after they restore her visibility. Despite her memory loss, she boasts a plucky disposition and ever-energetic attitude regardless of the group's daunting tasks save for one notable exception. Ashlynn is never reserved when it comes to her emotions, letting the whole world know when's she's happy, sad, or laughing up a riot. She also isn't afraid to throw her weight around either, flat out demanding that the party help troubled townsfolk they come across in her party chat and considers her bossy side to be part of her charm.

While never outright stated, it is '''strongly''' implied that Ashlynn has feelings for the {{Hero 6}}. Over the course of their adventures together this transforms from a simple crush to genuine love, to the point that Ashlynn will make mental notes of the Hero's answers to Judith's questions in [[Weaver's Peak]], along with other revealing remarks in her party chat.
{{clear}}

==Appearances==
==={{DQ6}}===
{{spoiler|start}}Ashlynn is first encountered at [[Moonmirror Tower]], suffering the same translucency that the {{Hero 6}} and [[Carver]] had earlier. Overjoyed that there are people who can finally see her, Ashlynn insists on accompanying the party once they apply a few drops of [[List of items in Dragon Quest VI#Incredible Items|Dream dew]] to make her solid once more. She brings a considerable amount of magic to the table and isn't shy about engaging monsters, but she does become nervous when faced with the prospect of dealing with the real [[Murdaw]] after the party had so much hardship with his doppelganger. When the heroes arrive at the fiend's island on the ship borrowed from the people of [[Ghent]], she asks to stay behind out of fear.

Once Murdaw has been killed, Ashlynn rejoins the party and continues her travels with the group with no further doubts or hesitancy. Over the course of her adventure, her origins are uncovered and Ashlynn learns that she is from the magical city [[Sorceria]], which had been destroyed by the Archfiend [[Mortamor]] approximately 50 years before the game's events. When Sorceria was besieged by the Archfiend, the citizens shed their mortal bodies and fled to the world of dreams to escape total annihilation, inhabiting a duplicate of their home before it was sealed away by [[Gracos]] on Mortamor's orders. Ashlynn's magical strength is so great that it deflected the fiend's sealing spell and her soul remained free, but force of the conflicting magic caused her to lose her memories.

The reason for the city being targeted is due to the Sorcerians knowing the ultimate spell, [[Magic Burst]], which is passed along to Ashlynn when the eldress of the town is spoken to. Ashlynn is the direct descendant of the founder of Sorceria, Ashmeralda, and several items available in the town were crafted especially for her use in the battle against the Archfiend. In addition, the events in the town bequeath Ashlynn with a new epithet: the Scion of Sorceria.

After journeying into the Archfiend's realm and defeating Mortamor, the group returns to a world at peace and the party returns to their homes except for Ashlynn who only briefly returns to her Sorceria to tell everyone what has happened. Ashlynn is then informed that she should study at [[Cloudsgate Citadel]] and learn from King Zenith. She chooses however to stay with the Hero. Upon arriving at Somnia, both are greeted by the King and Queen who compliment the young "couple" much to their shyness and invite them to the royal celebration.

Each party member is spoken to during this sequence save Ashlynn, whom the Hero finds in the throne room: because she never merged with her separated body, Ashlynn is fading along with the dream world as it begins separating from reality. The Hero and Ashlynn tearfully say their farewells as she disappears. All that then remains of the world of dreams is Cloudsgate Citadel, which remains fixed in the sky and becomes the legendary [[Zenithia]] after the land around it vanishes.

After the end credits, the reunited party gathers at [[Madame Luca Luminista]]'s house upon [[Milly]]'s request. Luca conjures a vision through her crystal ball, and the party sees Ashlynn alive and well in Zenithia where she is witnessing the hatching of the egg that holds a new future. Upon hatching the egg releases a stunning light which amazes Ashlynn and the onlookers, closing the game with the words "The End". Ashlynn's presence in Zenithia likely means the palace still has a connection to the Dream World through its magic and the others can still visit her there with the help of [[Pegasus]].{{spoiler|end}}

==={{DQ9}}===
On August 20, 2010, Ashlynn began appearing as a special guest at the [[Quester's Rest]] in [[Stornway]]. This could be downloaded through the [[DQVC]] using Nintendo's Wi-Fi channel when it was still available. When spoken to, she will give the {{Hero 9}} different pieces of her outfit is certain conditions are fulfilled.
*[[Ashlynn's clothes]] - Received when talking to her.
*[[Ashlynn's hair]] - Received when it is the player's birthday.
*[[Ashlynn's shoes]] - Received when the Hero is a [[Mage]].
*[[Ashlynn's gloves]]- Received after the inn is fully expanded.
A special [[Accolade]] is earned if the Hero wears all of the parts of Ashlynn's costume.

==Etymology==
Ashlynn is an Irish woman's name meaning ''Dream'' and ''Vision'', and Barbara is the English derivative of the Greek ''Barbaros'', meaning ''Stranger'' and ''Traveler from a Foreign Land''. Both names reference the young woman's otherworldly origins and her status as a stranger in a strange land, with the former likely being selected for the international release due to Barbara being a common name in English-speaking territories.

==Trivia==
*It is noted many times that Ashlynn is in love with the Hero, saying things such as ''"Hey Hero, I got a new outfit today. Do I look good in it?"'' or ''"Aah love, I know how she feels..."'' or ''"If I were her I'd pick you over [[Buddy]], but..."'', with even the Hero's parents compliment them on being a cute couple. This is even supported in battle, as only she and the Hero cannot be removed from the party by any means.
*Ashlynn hopes to settle down and become a homemaker one day. This is evident in one of her early lucky dip actions and party chat after speaking to Alicia in the Upper [[Clearvale]].
*Ashlynn's physical form is in fact the [[The mysterious dragon|golden dragon]], which took on the shape of a wondrous wyrm due to the young lady's incredible magic. Further details are explained on the dragon's page.
