'''Tombola''' is a mini-game featured in several {{Main Series}} games. Each play requires a [[Tombola ticket]], which can be found in chests, as drops from enemies, or as gifts from regular customers to supported businesses. Tickets are often given by shop keepers in exchange for making multiple purchases. In all appearances, the grand prize has been a [[Loyalty card]] that reduces the cost of items purchases at shops.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
Formerly translated as the ''lottery'', this game's tombola plays more like a slot-machine. Playing the Tombola requires matching symbols (similar to the [[5 Sigils]]) in order to win a prize. Unlike in other installments, the tombola is available in multiple locations:
*[[Leftwyne]]
*[[Moonaham]]
*[[Rippleport]]
*[[Burrowell]]
*[[Beran]]

The payouts are as follows:

{| cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" border="1"
!style="background:#77479B; color: white;"|Symbol
!style="background:#77479B; color: white;"|Prize

|-
|3 Heart Symbols
|[[Medicinal herb]] ([[Chimaera wing|WarpWing]] in the {{GBC}} version)
|-
|2 out of 3 matched symbols
|[[Tombola ticket]]
|}

Interestingly, after the defeat of [[Hargon]], the Tombola owner in [[Moonahan]] gifts the [[Luminaries]] with a free [[Tombola ticket]] every time they talk to him. In addition, the [[Tombola]] in [[Leftwyne]] can still be played in the aftermath of the fell priest's ambitions. While there is no reason to earn the prizes given that all enemies are gone and all other shops are closed in celebration of the [[Luminaries]]' victory, the [[Tombola]] game can thus be played to the player's heart's content.

Tombola acts as it does in ''Dragon Quest V'' and ''Dragon Quest VII'' in that it consists of a spinning wheel which yields various marbles and the marble received determines the prize.

==={{DQ5}}===
[[Tombola]] is played at the pub in [[Lodestar Harbour]] in the {{DS}} remake of {{Dragon Quest V}}. In this game, [[Tombola]] consists of a spinning wheel which yields various colored marbles. Depending on the color of marble which is released, the player wins a specific prize. Earning a good prize typically requires many attempts. The marbles are drawn automatically, and prizes are awarded accordingly:

}}

{{translation|'''Zoma'''|ゾーマ, ''Zoma''}}, the Master Archfiend of the [[Alefgard|Dark World]], is the final villain and chief antagonist of {{Dragon Quest III}}.

==Appearance and personality==
Zoma is a blue demon dressed in the golden robes of an emperor and wearing a purple cape that attaches to his shoulders in large horizontal pads. A red, white, and black banner covers his torso as well as his knees, and wraps around his neck as a large collar. His face is skeletal with tight skin and an open nasal cavity. His helmet is huge compared to his head, featuring a massive eye in the center and two large, upwards curving horns on both sides.

Zoma is a demon of unfathomable power, whose [[Magic and Abilities|sorcery]] is so great that he was able to imprison the kingdom of [[Alefgard]] in a shroud of eternal night. Due to this, he was able to sustain himself on the despair of the people trapped within, bolstering his physical might to the point that he was able to shatter a sword made of [[Orichalcum]], albeit after a prolonged effort of three years. His incredible strength is supported by a mastery of [[Kacrackle|ice magic]] and [[C-c-cold Breath|freezing breath]], and it is said that the very air becomes chilled by his mere presence. Zoma is also the first boss in the series to make use of the infamous [[Disruptive Wave]] technique, stripping his enemies of any support spells.

The Archfiend resides in [[Zoma's Citadel|his Citadel]] south-east of [[Tantegel]], where he gorges himself on the fear and despair of the land’s inhabitants, cloaking himself in an nigh upon impenetrable shroud of darkness that no spell can pierce. However, Zoma is weakened by the [[Sphere of Light]] and the shroud is destroyed when the ball is used in battle. Upon being defeated by the {{Hero 3}} (as well as [[Terry]] in {{Monsters}}), Zoma mockingly congratulates [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|his vanquisher]], but warns that his death will not bring an end to the world's suffering, and that a new evil shall arise to take his place long after the {{Hero 3}} has died. He is proven correct that the [[Dragonlord|darkness yet to come]] will throw [[Alefgard]] into despair, but failed to realize that the lineage of [[hero]]es will resurface to restore light to the world once more.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ3}}===
Near the end of the game, Zoma is revealed to be the master of the archfiend [[Baramos]], whom had been previously alluded to as the final boss to the game. Upon the death of his main and chief servant, Zoma's voice roars throughout the throne room of [[Aliahan]] castle, stating his intent to plunge the "[[Overworld (Dragon Quest III)|world of light]]" into darkness and that the {{Hero 3}} is a fool for assuming that he had won peace. This proclamation sends the [[King of Aliahan]] into a deep despair, forbidding the {{Hero 3}} and company from speaking of Zoma.

Zoma is on the basement floor of his castle along with three sub-bosses--the [[King Hydra]] along with the [[Soul of Baramos|soul]] and [[Bones of Baramos|skeleton]] of [[Baramos]]. He approaches and berates the {{Hero 3}} prior to allowing his three subordinates to fight the {{Hero 3}}'s {{Party 3}} before him.

====Strategy====
Remove his [[Shroud of Shadows]] immediately with the [[Sphere of Light]]; without it, Zoma is immune to nigh upon everything you can throw at him. His [[C-c-cold Breath|breath]] and [[Kacrackle|ice magic]] is more powerful, and his physical ability is also quite powerful . On top of this, he will regenerate 90~110 {{HP}} per round, minimizing any damage players can inflict between healing sessions. This form is so powerful that it has become a challenge among {{III}}'s players to slay the fiendish overlord '''without''' the [[Sphere of Light]].

Once the shield is removed, Zoma's defensive capabilities will plummet considerably: [[Sap]], [[Zap]], and all forms of fire will hit 100% of the time, and his regeneration will be nixed. [[Woosh]] spells also have a 30% chance to connect. The {{Hero 3}}/[[Warrior]] should be [[Oomph]]ed at all times. If the {{Hero 3}} isn’t physically attacking, he should be casting [[Kazap]] for extra damage. This is slightly risky though, for if the battle goes south, [[Omniheal]] may be necessary, and the {{Hero 3}} needs to have enough {{MP}} to cast it. The [[Warrior]] should also have a [[Staff of resurrection]] as a Hail Mary. The [[Sage]]/[[Priest]] should continually cast [[Multiheal]], and, as extra insurance, have a [[Sage's staff]] as backup for when they run out of {{MP}}. The [[Mage]]/[[Sage]] (although a [[Sage]] is recommended), should use the [[Sage's stone]] when the [[Priest]]’s [[Multiheal]] isn’t enough to fully heal the {{Party 3}}, and otherwise spam [[Kafrizzle]]. Keep this strategy up, and taking a few turns to heal every now and then, and one should be able to best the hellish demon. '''NOTE: The preceding strategy'''
'''may not work if the player’s {{Party 3}} is under level 45.'''

Zoma appeared once more as the final boss of the {{III}} scenario section. He could also be challenged with Zoma keys at Legendary, Giga-Legendary, and Fiend difficulties.

==={{DQRivals}}===
Zoma was introduced in the first card pack as a legendary rare card and he appears on the artwork of several cards, as well. As a reference to his original appearance in {{Dragon Quest III}}, Zoma has his Dark Robes when he is summoned on the field and a [[Sphere of Light]] is placed on top of the opponent's deck. This made him immune to all attacks and card effects until the enemy leader used the Sphere, which would cost 4 {{MP}} to use. Zoma appeared on another card in the 7th card pack, "Strange Tale of Light and Darkness" under the name "Great Demon Lord Zoma". He appeared as a boss in the Solo Battle Adventure in the Zoma's Castle level and on another card in the 2nd card pack after the game's name changed to {{Rivals Ace}} as "King of Destruction Zoma".

==={{DQWalk}}===
Zoma first appeared in the game as the boss of Chapter 5 of the {{Dragon Quest III}} event held from March to May 2020, as well as a special mega version that can be challenged by multiple players.

==={{DQTact}}===
Zoma appears as a S-rank {{MFamilies}} of the [[??? family]] as part of the {{Dragon Quest III}} event, appearing on his own banner alongside [[Boss troll]]. He can be faced in the event quest Chapter 5, Episode 4: Archfiend Zoma, as well as his own boss battle. Zoma can also participate in [[Skelegon]]'s Battle Road as a party member. He also appears in the limited ''True Dragon Quest III'' event and there he can be faced in a Score Challenge in The Battle of [[Zoma's Citadel|Zoma's Castle]] and he's as a boss during the Fiendish Onslaught at the game's half-year anniversary.

Zoma later appears immersed in [[Shroud of Shadows|an aura of malignant darkness]] as '''Zoma, Master Archfiend of Darkness''', who is another S-rank {{MFamilies}} of the [[??? family]] as part of the Japan-only limited ''Extreme Dragon Quest III'' event, appearing on his own banner. Zoma, Master Archfiend of Darkness can also participate in [[Soul of Baramos]]'s Battle Road as a party member.

==Trivia==
*Zoma is depicted with an inconsistent number of fingers. He was originally depicted having four fingers in his hands, but newer games (including remakes) instead show five fingers instead. ''Dragon Quest Tact'' still depicts him having four fingers though.
*In the original version of {{III}}, Zoma's Shroud of Shadows uses his normal colour pallet and his weakened state uses the bleaker colours due to a glitch. This error was corrected in the {{Super Famicom}} remake.
:*It is speculated that this was not an error, and that Zoma was meant to take a different form once the Sphere of Light is used. This is supported by concept art found in ''[[Dragon Quest Illustrations]]'' that depicts a monster reminiscent of the [[hellspawn]] next to Zoma, and Yuji Horii's remarks that the ROM for ''III'' was completely full by the end of development. If this speculation is true, then it is possible that the duller colour scheme was chosen to signify that the fiend was weakened due to there not being enough room for a new sprite on the cartridge.

Soul of Baramos

The '''Soul of Baramos''' is a monster that was first introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest III]]''. Despite what it's name implies, it is not the soul of [[Zoma]]'s right-hand demon made manifest but a separate monster with an identity all its own.

==Characterisctics==
The design of Soul of Baramos is merely a different color scheme of [[Baramos]]. However, instead of using a [[Baramonster|warm color scheme]], this monster is portrayed with a cool color scheme. Disposition-wise it is more proactive than Baramos, personally ambushing the {{Hero 3}} instead of relying on minions to do the dirty work. Its description implies that it is rather a personification or embodiment of Baramos.

====Draconian difficulty strategy====
The initial fight at the [[Tower of Rubiss]] isn't that bad. Just make sure to run the full complement of 7 [[asbestos earrings]] to neuter [[Kafrizz]] and [[Inferno]], keep buffs up and clear out the [[ashdemon]] support and he shouldn't be too much of a problem.

His rematch in the bottom of [[Zoma's Citadel]] is a different story. [[Blasto]] being a possibility as soon as the fight starts combined with 2-3 actions and [[Thwack]] throws reliability off the table, as [[asbestos earrings]] stacking won't save you now. However, unlike the older versions, he is ''not'' immune to [[Snooze]] this time around, with zero resistance like the [[King Hydra]]. Therefore, the strategy is still the same: have the [[duplic hat]] holder outspeed him with Snooze to deny him as many turns as possible. As long as the duplic hat holder isn't Thwacked or ejected by Blasto, the party should have little issue surviving the rest of the boss' moveset, and due to a lack of passive regeneration on the boss, the player shouldn't have much problem simply healing off any damage taken during the turns where the Soul of Baramos isn't asleep.

Metal wing boomerang

The '''metal wing boomerang''' is a {{Boomerang}} in the {{DQSeries}}. It is the most powerful boomerang in it's debut, and a top-tier weapon in all subsequent appearances.

In addition to it's high damage output, it is capable of dealing at least 1 damage to {{Metal slime}}s, meaning it can chip away at entire groups of the globs at once.

==={{DQ8}}===
The metal wing boomerang has an {{Attack}} bonus of +90 (+70 in the Japanese version) and can be equipped by the {{Hero 8}} and [[Morrie]]. It damages all enemies in battle, like all {{Boomerang}}s, and is guaranteed to inflict 1-2 damage on {{Metal slime}}s.

It can only be made using the [[Alchemy Pot]]. However, one of the drawbacks to making the boomerang is that one has to sacrifice their Metal king spear, as there is only one in the game. This is rectified in the {{3DS}} version, as another [[Metal king spear]] can be found in [[Memories Lane]].
*The [[Cell phone|smartphone]] and {{3DS}} versions of the game also introduced the ability to turn the boomerang back into the spear by combining it with a [[Holy lance]] in the [[Alchemy Pot]].

King of Alefgard

{{quote|style=2|quote=''Alefgard must now take its first steps as a world in its own right. It must emerge, blinking, into the dawn of its becoming.''|}}

{{Character
|Name=King of Alefgard
|Game={{Dragon Quest III}} {{DQ3HD}}
|Image=

|Japanese name=ラルス王
|Roumaji=RarusuŌ

|Voice Actor=
|}}
The '''King of Alefgard''' is the ruling monarch of [[Alefgard]] in the distant past, being the ancestor of [[King Lorik]]. In the Japanese script he is established as the founder of the ruling family seen throughout the [[Erdrick trilogy]] through his title of ラルス一世 (Rarusu the First) (Lorik I in English), with his descendant the king of the original game being ラルス十六代 (Rarusu the Sixteenth) (Lorik XVI in English).

==Appearances==
==={{DQ3}}===
The King rules from [[Tantegel]] castle where he welcomes the {{Hero 3}} and the {{Party 3}} when they enter his throne room, and he is astonished that outsiders have come from the [[Overworld (Dragon Quest III)|world above]]. He regretfully states that he cannot offer better tidings due to the blight of darkness cast over his realm by [[Zoma]], but he hopes that the presence of outsiders will lift his people's spirits.

When the {{Hero 3}} kills [[Zoma]] and restores the light of day to [[Alefgard]] the King will bestow the highest honour possible, the title of [[Erdrick]], which means "dwelling-land" in the ancient tongue. The King laments that the [[Great Pit of Giaga|gap between worlds]] seems to have closed, but swears that [[Erdrick]]'s deeds will be etched into the history of the land forevermore.

==={{DQ3HD}}===
The King's personality has been altered slightly in the HD version, now refusing to give in to despair in spite of the constant suffering [[Zoma]] inflicts upon his subjects. His dialogue is also rewritten to center around [[Ortega]], who received considerably more focus in this version of the game.

The King summons the {{Hero 3}} to his throne upon entering [[Tantegel]] castle upon hearing word of strangers in the land. He deduces that the {{Hero 3}} is the child of [[Ortega]], explaining how the long-lost father was found with severe burns by one of his guards approximately a decade ago. [[Ortega]] would recover from his wounds in the castle infirmary but had lost all of his memories save for his own name, and the King granted him permission to live in the castle. [[Ortega]] served the king for a period before suddenly vanishing one day; the King encourages the {{Hero 3}} to seek out [[Ortega]] and is confident father and child will be reunited ere long.

The King will also mention that [[Robbin' 'Ood]] entered his lands a short while before the {{Hero 3}}, and dismisses him as a con-artist rotting in jail.

The book is a one of a kind , only granted to the player after beating [[Xenlon]]. The dragon God will chastise the player for desiring such "filth", but then admit that it is His greatest treasure, issue number one no less, and tells the player to treat it with the care it deserves.

The book is found in the [[Mostroferrato|Briscoletti mansion]], and can be used on [[Jessica]] to get her personality sorted out while she stays at [[Chateau Felix]]. This doesn't work and turns her into a sultry bunny girl instead, which leaves her [[Rosalind Albert|mother]] aghast.

Luminaries

74.15.147.176 — Fri, 19 Sep 2025 22:38:44 GMT

74.15.147.176:

The '''Luminaries''' are the [[party]] of {{DQ2}} and the first group in the {{DQSeries}}.

They are descendants of [[Alefgard]]'s original {{Hero 1}} and [[Tantegel]]'s [[Princess Gwaelin]], as well as the Legendary [[Hero]], [[Erdrick]]. Their task is to take down the evil sorcerer, Hargon and the Demon Lord [[Malroth]].

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
====Members====
*''' The {{Prince of Midenhall}}''' (Originally '''The Prince of Lorasia''': This is the classic warrior of the three heroes. He can use any armour and weapon in the game. He has no magic ability (this is the only game in the series in which this is so), but his physical {{Attack}} and {{Defence}} are the greatest of the three. This is the character the player starts out with in the castle of [[Midenhall]]. His name is directly selected by the player.
**His Level cap is 50, and his icon is blue.
*'''The [[Prince of Cannock]]''' (Originally '''The Prince of Samantoria'''): The second Prince is a blend of the classic warrior and priest archetypes. He cannot use as wide a variety of weapons and armour as the prince of Lorasia but compensates for this with the ability to use magic. However, it should be noted that his magic is not as powerful as that wielded by the princess of Moonbrooke, although he is better at healing magic. This character is hard to track down, but is a great ally. His name is generated at random based on the name of the {{Prince of Midenhall}}, although there is a cheat code to alter his name. The [[Cell phone]] and {{Switch}} versions allows his name to be chosen shortly after the prologue.
**His Level cap in most versions of the game is 45 and and 50 as of the [[Cell phone]] & {{Switch}} port. His icon is green.
**Possible names: Arthur (アーサー), Cain (カイン), Cookie (クッキー), Conan (コナン), Sukesan (すけさん), [[Tonnura]] (トンヌラ), Paul (パウロ), Rand (ランド).
*** In {{DQStars}} his name was Caradoc.
*** In {{DQTact}} his name is Rickerd.
*'''The Princess of [[Moonbrooke]]''': Moonbrooke's Princess is the classic wizard of the three heroes and the first playable heroine in the series. She can use few types of armour and weapons in the game. She shares some of the [[Prince of Cannock]]'s magic, but in addition has several powerful damage spells. This character has been cursed and needs to be freed before she will be able to join her cousins. Like the prince of Cannock her name is determined at random, but can be changed by a cheat code. The [[Cell phone]] and {{Switch}} versions allows her name to be chosen shortly after the prologue. Her {{HP}} is low, and she can only equip a few items; but she gains a wide repertoire of spells, and has high {{MP}} and {{Agility}}.
**Her Level cap in most versions of the game is 35, and 50 as of the [[Cell phone]] & {{Switch}} port. Her icon is red.
**Possible names: Erin (アイリン), Akina (あきな), Samantha (サマンサ), Nana (ナナ), Purin (プリン), Maiko (まいこ), Maria (マリア), Linda (リンダ)
***In ''[[Itadaki Street DS]]'' and {{DQStars}}, she is known as Pudding.
***In {{DQTact}} her name is Peronel.
*'''The [[Princess of Cannock]]''': The younger sister of the Prince of Cannock and playable only in the HD-2D remake, her high agility allows her to outspeed the enemies and has several spells of her own. Despite this, upon initially recruiting her, her lack of combat experience and mischievous personality can sometimes make her ignore the player's wishes and do random effects in battle. She can use a decent amount of weapons and armor and has a few spells of her own such as [[Crack]].

The ''Princess of Cannock'' is a non-player character in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]''. She lives at [[Cannock|Cannock Castle]] and, as her name implies, is the sister of the [[Prince of Cannock]] and the daughter of the King of Cannock. Although this also makes her a descendant of [[Erdrick]], she does not take part in the quest to defeat [[Hargon]] in versions of the game prior to the ''[[Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake]]'' where she joins the other [[Scions of Erdrick]] and becomes a playable character.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
The Princess plays a very passive role in the game, cheering her brother on from the safety of the castle while the [[Luminaries]] save the world from the wicked occultist's plot. Her brother does not allow her to participate in the quest, likely due to being too young and having no formal martial or magical training, causing her to pout in frustration. Despite this she is very close to her older brother, being moved to tears if her cousins speak to her while the Prince is deceased.
====Scrapped ending====
The Princess of Cannock was meant to play a major role in a scrapped alternate ending, which Yuji Horii revealed in an interview with Monthly LOGiN magazine in May of 1987. The Prince of Cannock would sacrifice himself to destroy [[Malroth]], possibly using [[Kamikazee]], and would save the world at the cost of his own life. The remaining Luminaries would return to their homes, and during the victory celebration at Midenhall castle the Princess of Cannock would enter the scene with a short sword in her hand. Mourning the loss of her brother and blaming the Prince of Midenhall for his death, her cousin would slump to the ground as the credits began to roll<ref>それは、2番目の王子（サマルトリアの王子）が犠牲となって、最後の敵を倒すというものである。
目的は果たしたが、もはやサマルトリアの王子は戻らない。
彼の冥福を祈りながら、キミはムーンブルク王女と2人で帰路に……。
お城では人々が待ちかまえ、キミたちの偉業を心から称えてくれる。そして、一大セレモニーが開催される。
と、その時！
「お兄ちゃんの仇っ！」
駆け寄ってくる1人の少女。
気づくと、少女の持っていた短刀が、キミの胸に深々と刺さっていた、
少女は、いうまでもなく、サマルトリア王子の妹であった。
ボーゼンとする人々。
キミの身体は、やがて、ゆっくりと倒れていく。……幕。月刊LOGiN』1987年5月</ref>.

This scenario was likely cut due to the strict memory limitations of the 1 megabit [[Famicom]] cartridge the game was programmed on, and when subsequent versions of the game were released the material was deemed unsuitable for the series and was passed over.

==={{DQ1&2HD}}===
The Princess was revealed as the fourth party member during the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CC1iBil7DR0 March 27, 2025 Nintendo Direct trailer], sporting a new outfit based on her older brother's garb. Similar to [[Gadabout|Gadabouts]] from ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'' and [[Torneko Taloon|Torneko]] from ''[[Dragon Quest IV]]'', she will sometimes ignore the player's commands and do a random, but usually beneficial action instead. Unlike them, she is able to learn magic and has high speed in addition to a decent selection of equipment and stats.

}}
The '''Hero''' of {{Dragon Quest III}} is a fabled, Legendary Hero from the days of lore and the ancient history of [[Alefgard]]. Though only appearing in one game, the legacy of The Hero would live on in the "[[Erdrick Trilogy]]", so named for the [[Erdrick|title]] bestowed upon them and carried forth by their descendants.

In {{SSB5}}, The Hero of {{Dragon Quest III}} is playable as an alternate costume for [[Hero (Super Smash Bros.)|the game's version of the Hero]], alongside the {{Luminary}} and the Heroes of ''[[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|Dragon Quest IV]]'' and ''[[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|VIII]]''. This Hero has been given the default name '''Arusu''' (アルス) in order to differentiate him from the other three Heroes appearing in the game. Arusu has also appeared as his default name in official screencaps of the {{Super Famicom}} version and the HD-2D remake of the game. In the [[Dragon Quest III CD Theater|CD Theater]] audio drama of the game, the Hero is named '''Arel''' (アレル).

==Appearance==
Although the Hero can be either male or female, their appearances are practically identical. They are of average height and build, and they have incredibly spiky, dark brown or black hair. The Heroine is slightly shorter than her male counterpart, her hair sticks up less, and she wears a pair of green studs as earrings. Around their forehead is a silver circlet inlaid with a green gem. They wear a long blue tunic over a yellow long-sleeved shirt and pants, a pair of knee-length leather boots, leather gloves, and a long magenta cloak around their necks. They wear a brown leather belt around their waist, and a scabbard strapped to their back.

The Hero wields a simple sword and a grey heater shield with an insignia of a dragon's head and two crossed swords on the front. The Hero's outfit is slightly different in the {{Famicom}} illustrations, having a gold circlet with a blue gem around their forehead, and a dark blue cloak around their neck. They are seen carrying a cutlass and a round version of [[Erdrick]]'s shield. There were also no illustrations of the female [[Erdrick]] until the {{Super Famicom}} remake: in certain illustrations, the female [[Erdrick]]'s outfit is more feminized, making her blue tunic a strapless miniskirt. In certain illustrations and depictions, the male Hero's hair is a lighter shade of brown and the gems on the hero's circlet and the female hero's earrings alternate between green and blue.

The Hero was raised by their [[Hero's Mother (Dragon Quest III)|mother]] and grandfather in their home in [[Aliahan]]. Their father, the renowned warrior [[Ortega]], was tasked by the king of Aliahan to assassinate the world-threatening archfiend [[Baramos]] on the very day of their birth. Sometime later, word of Ortega's supposed death at the [[Great Pit of Giaga]] reaches the kingdom and The Hero's mother proposes that her child can follow in [[Ortega]]'s footsteps to free the world from [[Baramos]]' growing menace. The child is then trained to become a great warrior like their father and, on their sixteenth birthday, they officially depart to save the world. The king gives a word of warning to take companions with them on their quest lest they meet the same fate as their father and instructs them to visit [[Patty's Party Planning Place]] before leaving the safety of [[Aliahan]].

The [[King of Aliahan]] has discreetly sent word of The Hero's journey to the monarchs of every major nation--this is why the Kings and Queen warmly receive them even though the citizenry knows nothing of their mission. The Hero encounters several towns and kingdoms throughout their journey and accomplishes many feats of heroism, such mending the wounds between the {{Faerie}}s and the people of [[Norvik]] and freeing the nation of [[Jipang]] from the deceit of a sinister [[Orochi|serpent]]. Six legendary [[Six Orbs|Orbs]] are gathered by The Hero along their trek, which they use to hatch the legendary Everbird [[Ramia]]. The phoenix is the direct servant of the [[Goddess]], and her camaraderie with The Hero is irrefutable proof of their destiny as the savior of the world. Additionally, The Hero encounters the dying [[Dragon Queen|Queen of Dragons]] in her remote mountain [[Castle of the Dragon Queen|castle]]. Before she succumbs to her age, she gives The Hero the [[Sphere of Light]] and reassures them that their destiny is on of great courage and hardship for the benefit of the entire world.

After defeating [[Baramos]], The Hero returns victorious to [[Aliahan]] only to be confronted by a new nemesis, [[Zoma]]. Taking up a new quest to defeat the true evil, The Hero travels through the [[Necrogond Shrine]] to the world below and arrives in [[Alefgard]], which is sealed in perpetual darkness under the devil's heel. Here, The Hero fights back against the eternal night by freeing the entrapped Goddess [[Rubiss]] and besieging [[Zoma's Citadel]]. Against all odds, The Hero encounters their father fighting in the depths of the castle--[[Ortega]] had fallen into the world below during his fight at the crater of the Giaga volcano and resumed his mission by seeking to kill the evil plaguing both worlds at its source.

Tragically, [[Ortega]] is mortally wounded in a battle with the [[King Hydra]] before he can even reach [[Zoma]], and is so severely burned by the dragon that he can no longer see. Sensing someone is present, [[Ortega]] embraces his death with despair and bemoans his inability to bring peace to his world and that he was never able to see his child grow up. [[Ortega]] then quietly dies in The Hero's arms.

Reaching the lowest level of the castle, The Hero kills the [[King Hydra]] before fighting through the [[Bones of Baramos|animated corpse of Baramos]] and the fiend's very [[Soul of Baramos|soul]] on their way to Zoma's throne. The devil mocks the would-be savior and the battle begins, with [[Zoma]]'s impenetrable shroud of darkness being burned away by the sphere of light and leaving him vulnerable. After a vicious clash, The Hero emerges victorious, and Zoma begins to fade away--warning that hen though he may perish, there will always be [[Dragonlord|an evil]] to take [[Hargon|his place]].

The castle begins to collapse due to the force of the battle, and The Hero emerges from the [[Talontear Tunnel]] north of [[Tantegel]]. The light of the sun has begun to shine in [[Alefgard]] for the first time in untold years, and the people receive The Hero as nothing short of a messiah sent by the [[Goddess]]. The king bestows upon them the title of [[Erdrick]], the most sacred honor that the land has, and the stratum gap between the world above and [[Alefgard]] closes before The Hero can return. Unable to rejoin friends and family above, The Hero settles down in their new home and begins a family that will continue their legacy of standing resolute in the face of desolating evil.

In the {{Super Famicom}} remake of the game and all subsequent ports, The Hero's attribute growth is determined by their [[List of personality types in Dragon Quest III|Personality]]. At the start of the game, The Hero is asked a series of questions by a mysterious voice in the sky, culminating in a short scene in order to see just what type of person The Hero is. There are 32 different personalities that can be assigned at the beginning, but it is possible to change it with the help of various books or accessories that can be found.

The Hero is not a genuine jack-of-all-trades character despite a decent spell list, with their stats focusing more on physical strength and durability more than spell casting--this results in an {{MP}} shortage once expensive spells such as [[Kazap]] and [[Omniheal]] are learned. This can be corrected with the application of an {{MP}}-boosting personality and by consuming [[Seed of magic]] and [[Seed of wisdom]] when found.

The Hero is not able to change classes like other characters in the game, with the abbot of {{Alltrades Abbey 3}} reprimanding them for attempting to slack in their duties. The Hero must always be in the {{Party 3}} until [[Post Game|after]] defeating [[Zoma]].

====Spells====
The Hero is capable of learning a balanced mix of magic from both the [[Priest]] and [[Mage]]'s pools, as well as some that are unique to them, such as [[Kaclang]] and [[Zap]].

====Equipment====
The Hero has access to a very wide range of weapons, ranging from {{Sword}}s, {{Spear}}s, {{Axe}}s, as well as {{Whip}}s and {{Boomerang}}s in the remakes. They are capable of being outfitted with the heaviest armour, shields, and helmets available. [[Erdrick]] is also the only character capable of using the legendary equipment, which will prove useful when fighting against [[Zoma]]. In the remake versions, The Hero begins his journey equipped with a [[Copper sword]] and [[Wayfarer's clothes]].

==={{DQ3HD}}===
The Hero has been buffed considerably in all attributes compared to previous iterations of ''Dragon Quest III'', with MP growth and critical hit ratio in particular being given substantial boosts. This is likely due to the Hero being excluded from the vocation system and thus cannot amass incredible stats by switching professions as the other party members can.
====Stats====
Calculated using the [[everyman]] personality.

His female counterpart also appears as a S-rank member of the [[Hero family]] as part of the Japan-only limited ''Extreme Dragon Quest III'' event, appearing on her own banner. She can participate in her father, [[Ortega|Ortega's]] Battle Road as a party member.

==={{SSB5}}===
The Hero of {{III}}, under the name Arusu, appears as one of four {{Hero Smash}}es alongside the Heroes of ''[[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|XI]]'', ''[[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|IV]]'', and ''[[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|VIII]]''. He wields the [[Sword of Kings]] and the [[Hero's Shield]]. While playing as the Hero during Classic Mode, Arusu appears as Round 6's opponent and is fought on the third version of Castle Siege.

==Lineage==
The Hero's bloodline is that of powerful men and women who save the world from the grips of darkness. While every person descended from them carries their spirit, the most notable are the protagonists of the first and second games. These are The [[Hero (Dragon Quest)|Scion of Erdrick]], The {{Prince of Midenhall}}, The [[Prince of Cannock]], and The [[Princess of Moonbrooke]]. Their own adventures would shape the course of history for the betterment of the world and ensures that the name of [[Erdrick]] never leaves the heart of [[Alefgard]].

==Items Iconography==
As the Hero's legacy has grown in the distant time between the third and first game, several items and pieces of equipment that once belonged to The Hero have Erdrick in their names. See the ''[[Erdrick Equipment]]'' article for more details on the sword and armor set, along with the emblem.

Beyond the gear The Hero took into battle, they also left behind a tablet with a message written left for their descendant in {{Dragon Quest}}. It gives instructions on what items are needed to create the [[Rainbow Drop]], which is the location of [[Dragonlord's Castle|Charlock Castle]]. The tablet is found in a small cave that would be named [[Erdrick's Cave]] after their passing.

==Trivia==
*The manga series ''Gintama'' has a parody of ''Dragon Quest'' which stars [http://gintama.wikia.com/wiki/Leukocyte_King Leukocyte King], a character based on {{III}}'s Hero.
*As this is the first game in the mainline, numbered {{DQSeries}} to allow players to determine The Hero's gender, the female version of {{Dragon Quest III}}'s Hero is the first female main protagonist in that series.
*The Hero shares his voice actor in the audio drama with Android 16 from Akira Toriyama's ''Dragon Ball'' series. He also shares his voice with Marth from the ''Fire Emblem'' and ''Super Smash Bros.'' series. [[Hikaru Midorikawa]] also voiced the character Derolin in the original {{The Adventure of Dai}} anime, a false hero who dresses almost identically to the male Hero a few years prior to the CD drama.
**In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', he shares his voice actor, [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0387033/ Nobuyuki Hiyama], with Barry Kahn from ''Dragon Ball Super'' as well as the adult incarnation of Link from ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'' (and, by extension, Link's appearances in the first two ''Super Smash Bros.'' games). ''Super Smash Bros.'' series creator Masahiro Sakurai also noted that Hiyama's performance may be recognized as Guy Shishioh from ''The King of Braves GaoGaiGar'', and that his recording sessions for ''Ultimate'' as {{III}}'s Hero were surprisingly quick and easy, thanks to his extensive prior experience in video game voice-acting.
*The name Arusu (アルス) has appeared various times throughout the series history. It appeared as a default name for the Hero in official screenshots for the {{Super Famicom}} version of {{Dragon Quest III}}. It is also the name of the main character from ''[[Dragon Quest Saga: Emblem of Roto]]'' manga first released in 1991. Arusu has been the default name for the {{Hero 7}} of {{Dragon Quest VII}} in both the official manga adaptation and in various screenshots for the game. Lastly, in the CG movie {{Your Story}}, {{Parry}} was named Alus.
*The Hero of {{Dragon Quest III}} is one of the few heroes in the mainline games to speak. If the Hero is the second character in the party order when entering [[Gaia's Navel]], they will briefly be able to be spoken to and will recite the same dialog as any other {{Party 3}} member.
*With a natural strength cap of just under 500 as of the HD-2D remake, this Hero is the most physically powerful of the eleven.

''An ordinary boy living in a tiny fishing village. Your father is counting on you to succeed him as a great fisherman. You're a bit too nice for your own good, and often get taken advantaged of by your friend, Maribel.''

''--Description from the Dragon Quest VII instructional manual.''

The '''[[Hero]]''' of ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]'' is the son of a prominent fisherman and the game's main protagonist. He is a young boy who lives with his father [[Pollock]] and mother [[Pearl]] in the coastal village of [[Pilchard Bay]], and is childhood friends with the mayor's daughter [[Maribel Mayde]] and [[Kiefer|Prince Kiefer]] of [[Estard|Estard Castle]], who travel with him to explore the mysterious nature of their island home.

==Appearance and personality==
The Hero of ''Dragon Quest VII'' is dressed in a green tunic, complete with a green hat that is the source of ridicule from Maribel. This hat covers his messy black hair. In some of the character art, he is depicted with a pet iguana.

In keeping with tradition in the ''Dragon Quest'' series, the hero does not have the ability to speak in the game because he is the personification of the player. He only communicates through prompts of yes and no. However, he is generally liked by the people of Pilchard Bay and Estard. He is somewhat of a late sleeper, much to his mother's consternation. He also has a problem refusing people's requests and is constantly bullied into doing stuff by Maribel or his uncle [[Pike]].

In the 3DS remake, if the player decides to look in a mirror while the Hero is the first character in the party line-up, he will be captivated by how stylish he looks, find a different face looking back at him, be unable to see his reflection from steam, decide that his left side is his best side, notice he has grown a little tougher-looking, see that his face is flushed bright red, wipe the mirror, realize he didn't wash his face that morning, remain transfixed for a while, start counting his beauty spots, fix his hair, practice his most winning smile, notice his hair has grown long and unruly, realize his shirt is on back-to-front, see a tired-looking reflection, and grin awkwardly.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ7}}===
{{spoiler|start}}
The game begins with the Hero and Kiefer finishing their exploration of the ruins as the sun goes down on the island. Later on that night, Maribel asks the Hero what he was doing. Regardless the answer, Maribel will not be pleased and she tells him that she will find out what he is doing sooner or later.

Morning breaks and he is awakened by Pearl, his mother, who scolds him. She gives him a pilchard sandwich and tell the Hero to deliver it to his father, Pollock. The Hero does so and is ordered by his father to clean up the ship's interior. While there, he finds Maribel trying to stow away on the ship. She tries to convince the Hero not to rat her out, when she is also discovered by the ship's cook, who throws out the young woman. After this, Pollock tells the Hero that he is not ready to come with him. He tells the Hero to look after his mother while she is preparing for the pilchard harvest. The Hero exits the ship and watches it depart.

Afterwards, he is approached by a soldier from Estard Castle. He tells the Hero that the King Donald wishes to speak to him. After the message was delivered, the Hero prepares to leave when Maribel approaches him. Overhearing this, she imposes herself on the Hero and the two head to Estard Castle Town. They arrive without any problems and Maribel leaves to look at dresses.

The Hero enters the castle to speak with King Donald. The king asks him about Kiefer, his son, and his whereabouts. Regardless of the answer, the king will be agitated by the answer. He explains that Kiefer stole the Sunstone, his mother's ring.

After his meeting with the king, the Hero goes to find Kiefer who is at the ruins, who has already tried the Sunstone on the statue in the Ruins without success. Kiefer tells the Hero about what he had found out in the library and explains that this must have something to do with the ruins. He gives the Hero the scroll and asks him to figure out something with it.

The Hero heads to the Sage on the Cliff and gives him the scroll. The Sage tells the Hero that he can translate this document. The Hero goes to find Kiefer so that they can hear the explanation.

Armed with the information, the pair head back to the ruins and finally open it. After solving the secret of the ruins, they enter the Pedestal Room. They find two tablet pieces but are unable to complete the pictograph without the final piece. Having done all that can be done for now, the two leave the ruins and head back to their respective rooms.

When the Hero returns home, he is greeted by Pollock. He tells the Hero that he had found something interesting. He gives the Hero the missing tablet piece. With the final piece, the Hero finds Kiefer and they head back to the ruins.

When the boys get there, they are confronted by Maribel who threatens to expose their secret unless they take her with them. Having no other options, they agree. The trio get to the Pedestal Room and place the final piece in the Pedestal. An amazing thing happens. The trio are transported into the past.

Once they are able to free the land of its problem, it reappears in the present world. Thus the hero, Kiefer and Maribel head off to find all of the shards and restore the world to its proper form, and to defeat [[Orgodemir]], the evil behind it all.

From there, they go on many adventures to restore the world to its former glory.

====Vocation strategy====
The Hero is very flexible in every category. He can equip most of the weapons and armors in the game. His statistics are above average which makes him very suited to be molded into whatever role the player would like. Players should make sure to have the Hero learn three intermediate classes so that the [[Hero (Class)|Hero Class]] is available as its move set are some of the best skills/spells to learn. It is also advisable to use the seeds that are found in-game on the Hero as he is the only character that stays with the player from beginning to end.

==={{DQ7R}}===
{{Stub}}

==Trivia==
*In the official manga, the Hero's name is Arus. In the English release of the 3DS version, he was given the default name Auster in promotional material. The trailer for Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined calls him Arus.
*The Hero's default name Auster in the 3DS version is potentially a pun on "oyster", which compliments his mother's name, [[Pearl]]. This also fits into the naming conventions of the rest of his family, which all relate to fish or sea creatures.
*The Hero also appeared in the crossover game ''[[Itadaki Street Special]]'' for the PlayStation 2.
*According to a woman in Pilchard Bay, the Hero was born four months premature, with no health issues. This is the player's first hint of his unusual origins.

The '''Prince of Midenhall''' is one of the four playable characters from {{Dragon Quest II}}.

He is a descendant of [[Erdrick]] who responds to the sudden rising threat of [[Hargon]]. He inherited all of his ancestor's physical strength, but unlike his cousins the [[Prince of Cannock]], the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]], and the [[Princess of Cannock]], he cannot use magic, and as such is the only {{Main Series}} main [[hero]] who doesn't possess any magical ability. The HD-2D remake does give him several non-magical skills however.

The name given to the hero in the Japanese [[Dragon Quest II CD Theater|CD theater]] drama and novelizations is '''Allen''' (アレン).

==Appearance and Personality==
The Hero wears blue for the most part, though the goggles that rest on his helmet are brown. He wears a blue tunic over black form-fitting long-sleeved shirt and pants, blue shoes with light blue socks, and blue gloves. Across his chest is a swordbelt with a scabbard attached to the back. He also wears a brown belt around his waist with a small brown pouch on it and a belt buckle in the shape of [[Emblem of Erdrick|Erdrick's symbol]]. His sword is typical aside from the hand cover built into the hilt, and his shield is adorned with [[Erdrick]]'s symbol. His hair varies between illustrations, where it's shown to be black in color and trimmed short in older pieces and unkempt silver in later works. In many modern depictions, he is often seen wielding the [[thunderbolt blade]].

Even though the Hero is a silent protagonist and his personality is open for the player to define, a strong sense of justice can be seen in the beginning of the game, as he sets out to stop [[Hargon]] and his evil cult without so much as a "But thou must" proposal from the King.

Although the Hero is the only nameable character, he remains equal in stature with his three companions in {{Dragon Quest II}}, the [[Prince of Cannock]], the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]], and the [[Princess of Cannock]]. All four are descendants of [[Erdrick]]. This varies from other games in the series where only the hero is of notable birth compared to his party companions.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
The Prince of [[Midenhall]] is the first Luminary that the player controls in the game, responding to news of [[Hargon]]'s assault on [[Moonbrooke]] by setting out to assemble his cousins and take the fight to the mad priest's citadel in the frozen plateau of [[Rendarak]].

====Equipment====
As the most physically powerful of the trio, the Prince of [[Midenhall]] has access to the widest range of weapons and armor. He can equip every weapon and piece of armor available, including heavier ones that his cousins cannot use, such as the [[Sledgehammer]]. This means he is also the only character who has access to the legendary [[Erdrick Equipment|Erdrick's equipment]], and as such, should use them when facing [[Hargon]].

While he does not appear in the game physically, he is mentioned several times along with his cousins by various characters, Hargon, his [[Children of Hargon|Children]], and even the amnesiac Malroth. His clothing can be obtained after the Builder exchanges a certain amount of [[mini medal]]s to the Hairy Hermit.

==={{DQTreasures}}===
The prince is represented by a statue based on his likeness, being [[List of treasures in Dragon Quest Treasures|Treasure No. 329]] with a base value of 5,000,000

===''[[Dragon Quest Monsters +]]''===
The Prince appears as a main character during Kleo's venture into [[Rendarak]]. He saves the lad from [[Batmandrill]]s and is astonished that a [[human]] can consider monsters as his allies. The Prince displays astounding superhuman strength, breaking through stone barriers and manhandling massive {{MFamilies}}s.

==Trivia==
*He is the only main [[hero]] who cannot use magic of any kind.
*Like many of the main heroes in the series, he is a silent protagonist.
*He can reach a maximum level of 50.
*In the Japanese version of the game, he is depicted as the tallest of the cousins.
*In the artwork for the American {{NES}} version of the game, he is still wearing [[Erdrick]]'s signature blue armor, but the shield had been changed from blue to red.

Luminaries

74.15.147.176 — Sun, 14 Sep 2025 16:17:28 GMT

74.15.147.176:

The '''Luminaries''' are the [[party]] of {{DQ2}} and the first group in the {{DQSeries}}.

They are descendants of [[Alefgard]]'s original {{Hero 1}} and [[Tantegel]]'s [[Princess Gwaelin]], as well as the Legendary [[Hero]], [[Erdrick]]. Their task is to take down the evil sorcerer, Hargon and the Demon Lord [[Malroth]].

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
====Members====
*''' The {{Prince of Midenhall}}''' (Originally '''The Prince of Lorasia''': This is the classic warrior of the three heroes. He can use any armour and weapon in the game. He has no magic ability (this is the only game in the series in which this is so), but his physical {{Attack}} and {{Defence}} are the greatest of the three. This is the character the player starts out with in the castle of [[Midenhall]]. His name is directly selected by the player.
**His Level cap is 50, and his icon is blue.
*'''The [[Prince of Cannock]]''' (Originally '''The Prince of Samantoria'''): The second Prince is a blend of the classic warrior and priest archetypes. He cannot use as wide a variety of weapons and armour as the prince of Lorasia but compensates for this with the ability to use magic. However, it should be noted that his magic is not as powerful as that wielded by the princess of Moonbrooke, although he is better at healing magic. This character is hard to track down, but is a great ally. His name is generated at random based on the name of the {{Prince of Midenhall}}, although there is a cheat code to alter his name. The [[Cell phone]] and {{Switch}} versions allows his name to be chosen shortly after the prologue.
**His Level cap in most versions of the game is 45 and and 50 as of the [[Cell phone]] & {{Switch}} port. His icon is green.
**Possible names: Arthur (アーサー), Cain (カイン), Cookie (クッキー), Conan (コナン), Sukesan (すけさん), [[Tonnura]] (トンヌラ), Paul (パウロ), Rand (ランド).
*** In {{DQStars}} his name was Caradoc.
*** In {{DQTact}} his name is Rickerd.
*'''The Princess of [[Moonbrooke]]''': Moonbrooke's Princess is the classic wizard of the three heroes and the first playable heroine in the series. She can use few types of armour and weapons in the game. She shares some of the [[Prince of Cannock]]'s magic, but in addition has several powerful damage spells. This character has been cursed and needs to be freed before she will be able to join her cousins. Like the prince of Cannock her name is determined at random, but can be changed by a cheat code. The [[Cell phone]] and {{Switch}} versions allows her name to be chosen shortly after the prologue. Her {{HP}} is low, and she can only equip a few items; but she gains a wide repertoire of spells, and has high {{MP}} and {{Agility}}.
**Her Level cap in most versions of the game is 35, and 50 as of the [[Cell phone]] & {{Switch}} port. Her icon is red.
**Possible names: Erin (アイリン), Akina (あきな), Samantha (サマンサ), Nana (ナナ), Purin (プリン), Maiko (まいこ), Maria (マリア), Linda (リンダ)
***In ''[[Itadaki Street DS]]'' and {{DQStars}}, she is known as Pudding.
***In {{DQTact}} her name is Peronel.
*'''The [[Princess of Cannock]]''': The younger sister of the Prince of Cannock and playable only in the HD-2D remake, her high agility allows her to outspeed the enemies and has several spells of her own.

Party

74.15.147.176 — Sun, 14 Sep 2025 16:14:40 GMT

74.15.147.176:

The '''''Party''''' refers to a set of playable characters that carry out the progress of a game.

Originally introduced in {{DQ2}}, and made customizable in {{DQ3}}, it has become a staple of the {{DQSeries}}.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
''See main article: [[Luminaries]]''

{{Dragon Quest II}} did not offer any customization of party members. Instead, the {{Hero 2}} must recruit his cousins, the [[Prince of Cannock]], the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]], and in the HD-2D remake, the [[Princess of Cannock]]. The party is collectively known as the [[Luminaries]].

==={{DQ3}}===
''See main article: [[Party (Dragon Quest III)]]''

{{III}} introduced the concept of a totally customizable party to the series. The vocation, sex, and personality (in all remakes) of a {{Party 3}} member can be controlled by the player when a character is created at [[Patty's Party Planning Place]] (a bar) in [[Aliahan]]. While only four characters (including the {{Hero 3}}) may be in the {{Party 3}}, extra characters will stay in the bar.
[[File:DQ4-DS-OVERWORLD-SCREENSHOT.jpg|right|250px|thumb|The party exploring the world in {{Dragon Quest IV}}.]]

==={{DQ4}}===
''See main article: [[Chosen Ones]]''

With the series shifting focus to character-driven narratives, the act of character creation has been removed. The [[Chosen Ones|party]] line up can be changed on the fly, and even in battle, thanks to the addition of the wagon. In addition, '''all characters''' in the wagon recieve {{exp}}erience points at the end of battle. The maximum party size remains four.

Though they are temporary uncontrollable characters, [[Healie]] and [[Sparkie]] are the first {{MFamilies}}s to join the protagonists in the {{DQSeries}}

{{IV}} also brought A.I. to the series: once the {{Hero 4}} gathers companions in the beginning of {{DQ4 Chapter 5}}, they may be assigned one of several battle strategies to adhere to. A.I. could not be turned off in the original {{NES}} version.

The main members of the party are known as the [[Chosen Ones]]

==={{DQ5}}===
''See main article: [[Party (Dragon Quest V)]]''

The abundance of [[Monster recruitment|recruitable monsters]] saw the necessity of [[Monty]], the monster monitor. The veteran veterinarian will care for all creatures not in the active {{Party 5}} of the wagon. {{V}} also saw return of [[Patty]], to manage the human cast when not in battle. The maximum party size is three in the original {{Super Famicom}} version but was increased to four in the later remakes.

==={{DQ6}}===
''See main article: [[Party (Dragon Quest VI)]]''

[[Patty]] has taken up monster monitoring in addition to her usual services in {{VI}}, located in {{Alltrades Abbey 6}}. In the {{Super Famicom}} version, 15 of the 20 recruitable monsters can be kept at the bar, where as all slime buddies can be recruited in the remakes. The maximum {{Party 6}} size is again four.

==={{DQ7}}===
''See main article: [[Party (Dragon Quest VII)]]''

The [[wagon]] has been abolished in {{VII}}, with characters joining and leaving the {{Party 7}} at various points in the story. There are five permanent characters in the main game, with the extra one staying put in a town when not traveling with the hero. This character will not gain {{exp}}erience points.

==={{DQ8}}===
''See main article: [[Party (Dragon Quest VIII)]]''

Characters join the {{Hero 8}} as the story progresses, with customization being represented through character-specific skillsets. As there are exactly four playable characters in the original version, the [[wagon]] is used to house the [[Alchemy pot]].
*Two additional characters can join the party in the {{3DS}} remake. The characters not in the active {{Party 8}} will reside in the [[wagon]].

==={{DQ9}}===
''See main article: [[Party (Dragon Quest IX)]]''

{{IX}} is very reminiscent of {{III}}, in that characters are created with the help of [[Patty]] and stay at the [[Quester's Rest]] in [[Stornway]] while not traveling. As these characters have no [[Party Chat]] or story presence, [[Stella]] takes up the task of being the {{Hero 9}}'s (very) vocal companion and adding colour commentary to cut-scenes and events.

==={{DQ11}}===
''See main article: [[Party (Dragon Quest XI)]]''

A total of eight different characters are available as party members, though one of these is a secret character whose identity as a {{Party 11}} member is hidden in-game until they actually join. The {{Party 11}} members join the {{Hero 11}} as the story progresses, though the {{Hero 11}} is separated from them at the beginning of the second act and must reunite with each (at which point they rejoin the party). Available characters may be swapped in and out of the {{Party 11}} at any time, both in and out of combat--though a character swapped into the active lineup in the middle of a fight cannot act until the next turn.

==Mechanics==
===Lineup===
Some {{Main Series}} games offer the position of party members in battle to be customized. The position of each member affects how often an enemy will target them. Note that this does not affect the success or failure of said attacks, simply whom they're directed at.

The base formula for calculating party position targeting in most games is:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Lineup Position !! Targeting Percentage
|-
| 1st || 40%
|-
| 2nd || 30%
|-
| 3rd || 20%
|-
| 4th || 10%
|}

In {{Dragon Quest VIII}} it is:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Lineup Position !! Targeting Percentage
|-
| 1st || 35%
|-
| 2nd || 35%
|-
| 3rd || 20%
|-
| 4th || 10%
|}

===[[Wagon]]===
The [[wagon]] was implemented in {{IV}} to accommodate the larger cast of playable characters. Characters (even deceased ones) can be switched in and out of battle as a free action that doesn't eat up the player's turn. As mentioned above, characters sitting in the [[wagon]] will receive {{exp}}erience points even if they did not participate in battle. Unfortunately, characters will not regain {{HP}} or {{MP}} while riding.

The '''Prince of [[Cannock]]''' is a character in the {{DQSeries}} that appears as a playable {{Party 2}} member in {{Dragon Quest II}}.

He is one of four descendents of [[Erdrick]] who journeys to defeat [[Hargon]] after his attack on [[Moonbrooke]], and is the second playable character added to the {{Party 2}}. He also has a sister who is the [[Princess of Cannock]].

The Prince of [[Cannock]]'s abilities are a mix between both of his [[Luminaries|cousins]], the {{Prince of Midenhall}} and the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]]. Though he is physically strong, he is weaker than the {{Prince of Midenhall}}, and while he can use magic, most of his spells are not as powerful as those available to the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]]. In terms of statistics and spell choices, the Prince of [[Cannock]] has more in common with the other [[Hero]]es of the series.

Upon learning of the tragedy that befell [[Moonbrooke]], the Prince of Cannock set out on a journey, first travelling to the [[Wellspring of the Hero]]. Later, he met the Prince of [[Midenhall]] at the [[inn]] in [[Leftwyne]], where the two [[Luminaries|cousins]] joined forces and began travelling together.

==Appearance and personality==
Of the four titular [[luminaries]] of the legendary line, the Prince of [[Cannock]] falls in the second-tallest in terms of height. In the Japanese box art and all other versions of the game, the prince has shaggy orange hair and wears a green tabard with [[Erdrick]]'s crest on the front and an orange cape attached over a form-fitting black jumpsuit. He also wears green gloves and boots, as well as a pair of goggles on his head. In the American box art for the {{NES}} version of the game, he is still wearing the odd goggles on his head, but his tunic has been replaced with a full suit of green armor. The Prince is also seen carrying a green/black shield with a red jewel in the middle and wields a nondescript [[rapier]].

In the Japanese version, the Prince is described as a slacker, a drinker, and an overall really fun guy; however, in the {{NES}} American version the Prince of [[Cannock]] is described as a studious young man immersed in his studies. This is presumably due to the heavy censorship [[Nintendo]] of America enforced during the late 80s and early 90s. Later versions are loyal to the Japanese script and refer to the Prince in the same way.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
The Prince of [[Cannock]] sets out to aid his cousin, the {{Prince of Midenhall}}, when word of the sacking of [[Moonbrooke]] castle reaches him. Unfortunately, the Prince does not stay in one place for long and leads the player on a wild goose chase until meeting up with him at the inn of [[Leftwyne]].

Later in the game in all versions besides the {{NES}} original, the prince becomes ill after staying at the inn in [[Beran]]. The other heroes can travel to a small island with a single tree tile upon it and retrieve a [[Yggdrasil leaf]] in order to cure him and continue adventuring, or may leave him behind. Doing such only slightly affects the ending of the game, where the prince's dialogue bemoans how awful his luck is.

====Equipment====
The Prince of [[Cannock]] can equip a wide variety of weapons and armor, though not as many as the Prince of Midenhall, nor as potent. When fighting [[Hargon]], he should be wearing: [[Magic armour]], the [[Iron spear]] or [[Falcon sword]], and the [[Shield of strength]]. In remake versions of the game, he has access to a wider variety of equipment, such as [[Erdrick's Sword]] and the [[Aurora blade]].

The '''Princess of Moonbrooke''' is a character in the {{DQSeries}} that appears as a playable {{Party 2}} member in {{Dragon Quest II}}.

She is a descendant of [[Erdrick]] who inherited none of her ancestor's physical strength but makes up for it with her magical prowess.

After [[Hargon]] attacks [[Moonbrooke]], the Princess of Moonbrooke is cursed and turned into a dog. Later, after her cousins the {{Prince of Midenhall}} and the [[Prince of Cannock]] break the curse, she joins forces with them to exact revenge on [[Hargon]] for what he did to her subjects and her father.

==Appearance and Personality==
She is depicted as shorter than her cousins, by how much depending on the illustration. She alternates between having blonde and lavender hair, and is clothed in a white robe and purple or red hood with Erdrick's crest on the forehead, carrying what looks to be a [[Wizard's staff]] in the Japanese version of the game. Her eye color changes between lavender, red, and blue, as well. In the American illustrations for the {{NES}} version of the game she is tall, blond, and wears a pink and black robe, knee-high black boots, red cape and holds the [[Lightning staff]]. When cursed by [[Hargon]], she took the form of a brown dog.

The Princess comes across as a shy but strong willed girl, who wants revenge on [[Hargon]] for what was done to her father and [[Moonbrooke|home]]. When encountered in various spin-offs and cameo appearances in later games, the Princess is a jubilant and perky young woman prone to fits of laughter. Humorously, she sometimes ''barks'' when she becomes angry in said cameos, such as [[Fortune Street]].

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
The Princess is first seen in the opening cutscene, and is encountered in person in [[Moonaham]]. Unable to communicate with her cousins due to her curse, she follows them around as a {{Party 2}} member anyway as head's up to new players that the dog is more than it seems. After getting hints from the townsfolk of [[Moonaham]], the two princes find the [[Ra's Mirror]] in a swamp east of the ruins of [[Moonbrooke]]. Returning to the village, the mirror is used on the Princess and she is restored.

====Equipment====
The Princess of Moonbrooke is the most limited in terms of equipment compared to her cousins, being only able to equip light clothing and magical staves and wands. She cannot use any shields. She joins the {{Party 2}} equipped only with [[Plain clothes]] and a [[Cypress stick]] and does not have much in the way of physical {{Attack}}s and {{Defense}}. The {{SFC}}, {{GBC}}, and [[Cell phone|iOS/Android]] versions of the game mitigate this slightly by improving the attack scores on the wands she can equip.

*In the {{Game Boy Color}} version, her possible names are: Erin, Mary, Nana, Beth, Fran, Gwen, Lynn, and Sara. Her name can be changed manually by putting in a code at the title screen.

{{Stub}}

==={{DQ9}}===
On May 27, 2011, the Princess of Moonbrooke began appearing as a special guest under the name of '''Princess Princessa''' 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.
*[[Moonbrooke dress]] - Received when talking to her.
*[[Moonbrooke hood]] - Received when it is the player's birthday.
*[[Moonbrooke shoes]] - Received after the inn is fully expanded.
The player will receive the [[Accolade]] '''Moonbrooke Maiden''' if the {{Hero 9}} wears all of the parts of the Prince of Moonbrooke's costume.

==={{DQ11}}===
The princess is found in the [[Moonaham]] section of the [[Echo Chamber]], where in she has returned to [[human]] form at the cost of the citizens becoming dogs themselves. Distraught, she requests aid from the {{Luminary}} and seeks a jug of [[Magic water]] to undo the curse. After being given the phial and returning history to normal, she laments her fate and awaits the arrival of her cousins. Humorously, she is greatly taken aback at how common magic water is in the {{Luminary}}'s world compared to her own, which is likely a developer joke at how mundane magical items have become in recent games in the series.

A statue representing the princess is [[List of treasures in Dragon Quest Treasures|Treasure No. 331]],, with a base value of 1,200,000.

==Legacy==
The fair Princess introduces several firsts to the {{Main Series}} series, such as being the first heroine to join the protagonist, the series' original dedicated spell-casting character, and the first to endure the destruction of their family and home. Such a melancholy fate would become the series' standard, with only a scant few lead characters avoiding the trend.
