'''Nadiria''' is the name of the evil underworld in [[Dragon Quest IV]] and [[Dragon Quest V|V]]. It is accessible only near the end of each game and contains the final dungeon and boss for each. It has its own world map which is typically much darker (and smaller) than the normal world map, providing habitation for ferocious monsters and freakishly bizarre flora.

Its counterpart is [[Zenithia]], a castle in the sky that watches over the world of mortals.

==Appearances==
===[[Dragon Quest IV]]===
Nadiria lies beneath the [[Central Island]]. Access is granted through a [[Cave to Nadiria|cave]] said to lead to the abyss. Nadiria itself appears as an enclosed realm containing both [[Heaven's Haven]] and [[Psaro's Castle]], along with [[Four Dens of Nadiria|four barrier shrines]].

*[[Swingre]]
*[[Teaky mask]]

===[[Dragon Quest V]]===
Nadiria lies beyond the [[Estuary Sanctuary]], normally sealed from the world. The [[Nimzo|Grandmaster of the Underworld]] has been steadily trying to extend his influence beyond Nadiria. The underworld consists of wild tropical jungles and treacherous canyons underneath a churning, dark purple sky. Locales within this realm include a town called [[Precaria]] that houses reformed monsters, as well as a T'n'T board and [[Mt. Zugzwang]].

The '''Zombiesbane''' (also known as '''Zombiebane''', '''Zombie slasher''' or '''Zombie Sword''') is a powerful sword in the [[Dragon Quest]] series. True to name, it deals 50% more damage to creatures from the [[zombie family]] in most instances.

==Appearances==
===[[Dragon Quest III]]===
The Zombie slasher has an attack bonus of +67. It can be equipped by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|Hero]], [[Warrior]]s, [[Priest]]s, [[Merchant]]s, and [[Sage]]s.

Contrary to later appearances, the sword does ''not'' actually deal bonus damage to the undead; instead, the extra damage is based on the target's vulnerability to [[poof]]. When the decision to attack has been made and base damage has been calculated, the game will then check the foe's resistance to the spell and run a simulation without the player knowing. If the spell were to hit had it been cast by the player, the enemy would take 16~32 more damage.

===[[Dragon Quest V]]===
The Zombiesbane has an attack bonus of +80 and deals 50% more damage to rotting foes. It cannot be purchased until generation 3 though, at the new [[Whealbrook]] shop for 11,500 gold. V codified the bonus effect of the weapon, becoming standard until VIII.
