The '''grim keeper''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}} that first appeared in {{Dragon Quest IV}}. It is a purple winged demon that wields a scythe as tall as itself.

==Characteristics==
Grim keepers are {{Demon}}s with purple skin, moss green wings, a long pointy tail, and two pairs of golden curved horns on their heads. They have muscular bodies and their faces have simian features with a pair of large pointed ears and four digits on each of their limbs. Their faces and chests are the same color as their wings. They carry their wicked scythes in both of their hands.

The Grim keeper has gone on to make appearances in {{X}}, {{XI}} ({{3DS}} and {{Definitive Edition}}) as well as some of the spin-offs.

They share the same name as [[Grim keeper (Dragon_Quest_VI)|grim keeper]] from {{VI}} in both English and Japanese, but are otherwise different enemies entirely.

Reappearing after a 6-game hiatus starting with the base game released on August 2nd 2012, one is first seen destroying the village of [[Tenton]] under [[Nelgel]]'s orders while more are found in places like the [[Reidametes temple]]. In battle, they can [[Curse Attack|curse enemies with their attacks]], block attacks and spells with their scythes, vomit a [[Venom Mist]], and even call in [[Sootheslime]]s when the going gets tough.

Harvest Loon, a grim keeper of the [[Plob]]'s Big Three and the third boss of the game, is located in [[Callmigh Bluff]]. He gives [[Rocket]] a [[slime knight]] which the [[slime]] must use to do battle with him.

Harvest Loon's main means of attack is through small scythes, which can be reflected back towards him using the Slime Knight to deal damage. He will also swing his large scythe, as well as summon a group of [[Mean spirit]]s that charge at Rocket. Harvest Loon will drop his scythe when defeated, which is an item Rocket can pick up.

Treeface

The '''treeface''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest II}}. It is a tree that has come to life in order to attack adventurers.

==Characteristics==
A wicked parody of the traditional ''treant'' of Western fantasy, the treeface is a terrible tyrant of the timberlands that mimics surrounding forest biomes in order to ambush plucky adventurers. Brighter than their bark would imply, they use their own leaves to heal themselves when weakened, and are not above fleeing battle when their necks are on the chopping block. The trees are also known for performing peculiar dances in order to drain spellcasters of their magic power. Treefaces were once ordinary trees that came to life after absent-minded adventurers carved words into their wood.

Treefaces appeared from the beginning of the game. Like before, they are able to perform [[Weird Dance]] and heal themselves with [[Medicinal herb]]s and will flee when threatened. In Version 1.1 of the game, it gained a [[Rarefied monster|rarefied]] version in the form of [[antiquitree]]. Starting with Version 5.0, vicious treefaces can be encountered in the Netherworld. They no longer flee and continue to perform their Weird Dance, while they are now able to heal themselves with [[Special medicine]].

==={{DQDai}}===
A treeface appears at the beginning of the story as one of the friendly monsters living alongside [[Dai]] and Brass on Dermline Island. In the 1991 anime, a trio of treefaces are called forth by Dai with the help of magic cylinders in the kingdom of Romos against the fake hero's party. They perform a Weird Dance on the mage Masopho to sap his magic power.
* In the 2020 anime, treefaces from the Dark Forest can be seen among the monsters attacking the kingdom of Romos led by [[Crocodine]]. They are part of the Furfang Legion.

A treeface named Bough Beater appears as the first boss of the game, found in [[Forewood Forest]]. He will attempt to damage [[Rocket]] with his arms. Once his [[HP]] is brought down to half, Bough Beater's color will change to closer resemble a [[Treevil]] and he will attack faster. Rocket may defeat him simply with Elasto Blasts.

Gripevine

2026-03-25T23:34:55Z

SparkleSlime34: /* Appearances */ - Added info on its Rocket Slime appearance as a boss.

<center>''For the {{MFamilies}} vocation in'' {{Dragon Quest VII}}, ''see [[Gripevine (vocation)]].''</center>

The '''Gripevine''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in the original {{DQM}}.

This giant man-eating flower is one of the deadliest representatives of the [[Nature family]].

==Characteristics==
The Gripevine is a large, looming carnivorous plant with a look similar to the real world infamous ''[[Wikipedia:Rafflesia arnoldii|rafflesia]]'' flower of southeast Asia. Its beautiful body has a blooming bulb-like flower with a long lurching tongue and sharp serrated teeth, supported by a treacherous tangle of leafy vicious vines. It uses the two longer thorn-covered vines to lash at enemies, along with ferociously fetid fragrances that send foes to {{Sleep}} or stick them with [[Venom Mist|vile venom]]. In its original appearances, the Gripevine had a purple and magenta coloration, but it borrowed the [[Malign vine]]'s green and red color scheme for several games. Occasionally, the Gripevine has shifted back to its original coloration for certain titles.

Rumor has it that when the Gripevine reaches maturity, it will unfurl its bud and begin life anew as a [[Thornella]].

The '''oaken club''' is a recurring weapon in the {{DQSeries}}. Highly crude, it is not very powerful and is often one of the first weapons found in a game.

==Characteristics==
The oaken club is a primitive weapon that appears to have been carved roughly out of a tree trunk and has cloth wrapped around the handle for ease of use. In the instruction manuals for the Famicom versions of the original ''Dragon Quest'' and ''Dragon Quest II'', the oaken club was depicted as having numerous nails sticking out of it. They appear to be the favored weapons of many monsters, such as [[troll]]s and [[Cyclops|cyclopes]].

The '''miracle sword''' is a recurring item in the {{DQSeries}}.

Whenever it successfully lands a hit on an enemy, it restores the user's {{HP}} by one quarter of the damage dealt. Some players consider it to be more useful than the [[:Category:Legendary Equipment|legendary swords]] because of this.

Chimaera wings can be purchased for 25 gold coins and sold for 18. Due to plot details the chimaera wings do not function exactly like the [[Zoom]] spell in that it does not allow the player to select any previous location, instead it always returns you to the last location visited.

Chimaera wings may be found in [[Mt. Krakatroda]] and the [[Flying Clawtress]]. They can be thrown at enemies, slimes, or other items in stages, and return what they touch back to [[Boingburg]]. Like other items, chimaera wings may be used as ammo during tank battles. When loaded into the cannons, they deal 8 damage to the opposing tank. Chimaera wings can be thrown at enemies during tank battles as well, sending them back to their tank.

===''[[Dragon Quest Builders]]''===
(In-game description} - ''"A fastly tied fan of fluttering feathers. Instantly transports you to your base."'' Made from 5 chimaera feathers.

==={{DQTreasures}}===
Chimaera wings are exceptionally handy in this spin-off as they allow [[Erik]] and [[Mia]] to retreat back to [[Eggshell Island]] with all their acquired loot in tow; using the built-in evacuation option in the game's menu means dropping all those precious baubles in transit.

Flucifer

2026-01-14T22:49:08Z

SparkleSlime34: /* Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime */ Fixed incorrect links for the Schleiman and the Schwarzman tank.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime]]''===

'''Flucifer''' is not seen in the game, and he is known as The Dark One. Flucifer was summoned by the Princess of Slimenia, who accidentally played a flute that summons him. The only way to defeat him was to use the [[Gott Schlieman]] tank, made by Alchemising the [[Schleiman tank|Schleiman]] and the [[Schwarzman tank|Schwarzman]]. Flucifer possesses [[Don Clawleone]] once summoned, and uses a tank that looks like a Dragon.

The "Possessed Clawleone" is also seen in the [[Hero's Well]], a fight in which you have to defeat him again, however, he has more HP and you have [[Swotsy]], [[Hooly]], and [[Bo]] on your team, and you have to protect them from his attacks.

Schleiman tank

2026-01-14T21:56:50Z

SparkleSlime34: /* Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime */ Added info on its Rocket Slime appearance.

{{Monster Infobox

The '''Schleiman tank''' is a tank from ''[[Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime]]''.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime]]''===
The Schleiman Tank is the main monster tank of ''Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime'', used by the protagonist, [[Rocket]]. It first appears in the [[Tootinschleiman's Tomb|Tomb of the Tootinschleiman]] buried beneath a large sand castle, and awakens once Rocket blows the repaired Warrior Flute. The Schleiman tank enables Rocket to initiate tank battles with members of the [[Plob]].

While in [[Boingburg]], up to 30 items obtained in the game can be loaded into the Schleiman tank as ammunition. Once the stage [[Mt. Krakatroda]] is unlocked, the tank is able to carry up to three crew members to assist Rocket during tank battles. The Schleiman tank may also have its HP increased with the help of Slimechanic, in exchange for gold and, in some cases, specific items.

During the final fight against The Dark One, the Schleiman tank is alchemized with the [[Schwarzman tank]] by the [[Krak Pot]]. This creates the [[Gott Schleiman]], which gains the ability to fly in order to confront [[Flucifer]]'s tank in an aerial tank battle.

==={{DQMJ2}}===
The Schleiman tank was only available through Wi-Fi.
