The '''Dream-Whisperer''' is the servant to the Goddess [[Rubiss]] who was added to {{Dragon Quest III}} in the 1996 remake, where she assessed the {{Hero 3}}'s personality through the [[Dream Scenario]] in the game's opening. Her role has been expanded in the HD-2D remakes of the [[Erdrick Trilogy]] and the HD remake of the original game in particular, where receives a proper name and is revealed to be the leader of the [[Elves and Faeries|faeries]] who dwell in [[Alefgard|the underworld]].

==Appearance and personality==
The Dream-Whisperer is a faerie and in the 1996 {{Super Famicom}} version of the game she used the same sprite as the [[Queen of Faeries]]. The HD-2D version gives her a design of her own, where she is a blonde woman wearing a red dress with puffy white shoulders. Her accessories are a pair of gold bracers with a matching brooch set with a large, green gem, and and a blue staff topped with a golden apple ornament set with another green gem. As with all faeries in the underworld she now has a set of four translucent wings. 

Her personality is not conveyed through her dialogue in the 1996 version of the game beyond being an astute observer of [[human]] character and speaking in the laid-back, child-like manner typical of her kind. The additional lines of dialogue in the HD-2D version give her a proper sense of character, however, depicting her as a faithful devout to her Goddess who does all she can to aid in her restoration. She develops a certain fondness for the {{Hero 3}} over the course of the game through her dream guidance, having total confidence that they will bring peace to the world. 

==Appearances==
==={{DQ1&2HD}}===
The Dream-Whisperer is attempting to summon Rubiss back to the world after the Goddess' disappearance.

==={{DQ3}}===
The servant of Rubiss speaks to the {{Hero 3}} in a dream on the morning of their sixteenth birthday, during which she poses a series of questions to assess the [[List of personality types in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake|personality]] of the world's savior. Depending on the player's answers her assessment can be rather blunt, and it is implied that she is the mysterious voice that speaks to the Hero upon the vanquishing of [[Baramos]].

Much later, after entering the underworld, the Hero will meet the servant of Rubiss face-to-face in the [[Shrine of the Spirit]]. Here she will give the player the [[Staff of Rain|staff of rain]] in order to be combined with the [[sunstone]] to create the [[Rainbow Drop|rainbow drop]] and reach the [[Zoma's Citadel|devil's castle]]. She will also make a half-hearted apology if she spoke too harshly of the Hero during the [[Dream Scenario]] evaluation at the beginning of the game. During the finale she will thank the Hero for saving her world, and tell them that [[Rubiss]] is looking forward to meeting them again some day.

==={{DQ3HD}}===
The servant of Rubiss has been promoted to a major character through the scenario additions to the game, where in she now watches over the Hero throughout the journey and gives the player guidance after major events. Specifically, she will speak in the Hero's dreams after obtaining the [[ship]] in [[Portoga]] to inform the player of the [[Six Orbs]] being vital to the quest's success, congratulate the Hero after slaying the wicked [[Orochi]], and tells the Hero to seek out the [[boatman's bone]] and the [[Mountaincleaver]] sword after bringing peace to [[Manoza]]. It is also confirmed that she is indeed the voice who speaks to the Hero after [[Baramos]]' defeat.

When speaking to her in the [[Shrine of the Spirit]], she will explain that chose to contact the Hero herself due to the Goddess' petrification. Her apology for any rudeness during the Dream Scenario is less flimsy as well, and gives the Hero clear instructions to free Rubiss from her [[Tower of Rubiss|eponymous tower]] where Zoma imprisoned her. After handing over the staff of rain she will take flight to spread glittering dust from her wings over the party, restoring their {{HP}} and {{MP}}. Her dialogue during the ending remains the same as in the 16-bit remake.

==Trivia==
*As the character had no given name prior to 2025 she was informally referred to by fans as the ''Servant of Rubiss''.
