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

Introduced in {{DQM}}, it is a {{Slime}} in the shape of a brilliant, golden jewel.

==Characteristics==
A Gem slime is, as suggested by its name, shaped like a brilliant-cut diamond, a trait most apparent when viewed from the side since its back tapers to a point away from its front. It also has a tiara-like crown that bends back and appears to be attached to the point of its jewel-shaped body. Gem slimes are typically the best sources of [[gold]] in the games they appear in, netting an adventurer several thousand for defeating one.

The Gem slime's distinct design was lent to a pair of pallet swaps when it was added to the main series in {{VII}}, being the [[Emperor slime]] and [[Platinum king jewel]].

Gem slimes appear as one of the grotto-specific {{MFamilies}}s found in the game, specifically appearing in the tomb-like grottoes. They have metal monster-like stats and are capable of casting [[Magic Burst]], though defeating even one will net the player more than 10,000 [[gold]] coins. Adventurers seeking riches can farm Gem slimes with [[Thunder Thrust]] and [[Hatchet Man]] to quickly earn enough money for even the most expensive purchases, such as Chronocrystals, which cost a staggering 50,000 coins each. However, moneymakers should still remain wary of the powerful [[Magic Burst]], as it can take out an unprepared party, especially when multiple Gem slimes are present in battle.

{{spoiler|start}}
In this game, his speech before the battle is hinted that he is one of the ten monsters 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!?", probably referring to [[Celestria]]'s transformation into a tree.

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]]''.

Killing machine

The '''Killing Machine''' is a recurring enemy in the {{DQSeries}}. First introduced in {{DQ2}}, it is a quadrupedal robot and one of the few mechanical monsters featured in the series.

==Characteristics==
Killing machines are four-legged robots with suction-cup-like feet, a single red eye, and are primarily blue in color. In most games they are featured in the killing machine holds a single-edged sword in its right hand and has a crossbow for a left arm with the bolts stored in a quiver worn on its back, the strap going across its upper body, though there are rare occasions where they have a normal left arm instead of a crossbow.

Often portrayed as heavy-attackers, killing machines had little else in their arsenal beyond physical attacks before {{Dragon Quest VIII}} gave them the power to shoot a laser from their eye. They are notably one of the first regular enemies in the series that can attack twice per round and do so essentially all the time, retaining this ability in their mainstream appearances and often bearing similar attributes or references to this in spin-off games. Another recurring quality is that they often appear in cold climates or areas close to such places, being able to channel the power of ice through their swords with [[Kacrackle Slash]]. Their robotic bodies tend to give them protection against status effects such as poison and sleep, but the machines frequently have difficulty dealing with lightning and explosive spells. The ''Heroes'' series of games started the trend of players being able to short circuit them with electrical attacks and magic.

The killing machine reappears and is essentially in the same position it was first in: a monster not encountered until almost the very end of the game. They can be found in the latter portions of Nadiria and will also appear within Mt. Zugzwang, the dungeon players must venture through in order to confront the game's antagonist. Killing Machines are also summoned by [[Nimzo]] as reinforcements. It is possible to [[killing machine (Recruit)|recruit]] a killing machine for the team, though the odds of one wanting to join the player are extremely low.

Killing machines retain their previous qualities, though they aren't fought as near to the game's end as they are in other titles. They can be found in the Dragon Graveyard and the snowy area where Orkutsk is situated, locations that may reference their habitats in the previous two mainstream games they were in.

Additionally, three killing machines are available as Monster Team recruits once the player fulfills the requirements for them to appear and also gains access to the areas they appear in.

Killing machines appear in the Flying Clawtress, the last area of the game and appear en masse in the rooms they are found, one particular room forcing the player against ten of them before being able to continue. They lack their usual crossbows but wield the eye laser attack given to them in ''Dragon Quest VIII''. While they cannot attack twice given the genre of the game, they do have a frenzied state upon first being attacked and will occasionally drop lucky bags containing vulcan ammunition, a type of ammo that can be used to attack multiple times in tank battles.

The '''Killing Machine''' is a recurring enemy in the {{DQSeries}}. First introduced in {{DQ2}}, it is a quadrupedal robot and one of the few mechanical monsters featured in the series.

==Characteristics==
Killing machines are four-legged robots with suction-cup-like feet, a single red eye, and are primarily blue in color. In most games they are featured in the killing machine holds a single-edged sword in its right hand and has a crossbow for a left arm with the bolts stored in a quiver worn on its back, the strap going across its upper body, though there are rare occasions where they have a normal left arm instead of a crossbow.

Often portrayed as heavy-attackers, killing machines had little else in their arsenal beyond physical attacks before {{Dragon Quest VIII}} gave them the power to shoot a laser from their eye. They are notably one of the first regular enemies in the series that can attack twice per round and do so essentially all the time, retaining this ability in their mainstream appearances and often bearing similar attributes or references to this in spin-off games. Another recurring quality is that they often appear in cold climates or areas close to such places, being able to channel the power of ice through their swords with [[Kacrackle Slash]]. Their robotic bodies tend to give them protection against status effects such as poison and sleep, but the machines frequently have difficulty dealing with lightning and explosive spells. The ''Heroes'' series of games started the trend of players being able to short circuit them with electrical attacks and magic.

The killing machine reappears and is essentially in the same position it was first in: a monster not encountered until almost the very end of the game. They can be found in the latter portions of Nadiria and will also appear within Mt. Zugzwang, the dungeon players must venture through in order to confront the game's antagonist. Killing Machines are also summoned by [[Nimzo]] as reinforcements. It is possible to [[killing machine (Recruit)|recruit]] a killing machine for the team, though the odds of one wanting to join the player are extremely low.

Killing machines retain their previous qualities, though they aren't fought as near to the game's end as they are in other titles. They can be found in the Dragon Graveyard and the snowy area where Orkutsk is situated, locations that may reference their habitats in the previous two mainstream games they were in.

Additionally, three killing machines are available as Monster Team recruits once the player fulfills the requirements for them to appear and also gains access to the areas they appear in.

Killing machines appear in the Flying Clawtress, the last area of the game and appear en masse in the rooms they are found, one particular room forcing the player against ten of them before being able to continue. They lack their usual crossbows but wield the eye laser attack given to them in ''Dragon Quest VIII''. While they cannot attack twice given the genre of the game, they do have a frenzied state upon first being attacked and will occasionally drop lucky bags containing vulcan ammunition, a type of ammo that can be used to attack multiple times in tank battles.
