The great sabrecub is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in the Super Famicom Version of Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride, it is the infant form of a great sabrecat.

Characteristics

Great sabrecubs have many of the defining characteristics of their mature alternates, such as spotted fur and and a fiery red mane running from head to back. Other than their lacking stature, the only thing missing from the cubs that the adults have are their developed, saber-like fangs.

Appearances

This replacement may have been performed to make its acceptance into the party more convincing, as many NPCs only regard it as a 'strange cat', though a few recognize what it is and what it will eventually become.
