'''Greygnarl''' is a large gray dragon in ''[[Dragon Quest IX]]''. He lives high atop [[Upover]] at the summit of the [[Magmaroo]] volcano. He fought the black dragon [[Barbarus]] and the [[Gittish Empire]] 300 years prior to the events of ''[[Dragon Quest IX]]''.

It appears to be a (grayish) white [[wikipedia:Chinese dragon|Oriental Dragon]] winged with wings of a [[wikipedia:European dragon|Western Dragon]].

* When the [[Hero (Dragon Quest IX)|hero]] reaches the summit of [[Magmaroo]] to seek assistance from Greygnarl, he mistakenly believes the hero to be a Gittish warrior come to slay him.  

* Greygnarl sacrifices himself to stop an attack by [[Barbarus]] targeting the village of [[Upover]].

* Death? A shadow of a dragon appears after a villager in [[Upover]] offers a jar of [[Drunken Dragon]] in the ending scene.

As the fiercest Grotto boss outside of Legacy Bosses, Greygnarl is a truly dangerous foe. Combining the power of three actions per turn with highly damaging abilities, Greygnarl is a very difficult boss. Not only does he have access to the extremely powerful [[Magic Burst]], but he can also incapacitate your party members with [[Raging Roar]]. Also noteworthy is his ability to temporarily raise his [[Attack]], [[Defense]], and [[Agility]], as well as preventing the party from matching his stat boosts by casting [[Disruptive Wave]]. Luckily, unlike members of the [[??? Family]] who have no weapon weaknesses, Greygnarl can be hit for extra damage by [[sword]]s and the powerful [[Dragon Slash]].

==Trivia==

* The war between [[Greygnarl]] and [[Barbarus]] seems to be originate from a legend about [[wikipedia:Amur_River|Heilong River (River of Black Dragon)]]; however, the color of evil and good dragons have been switched.

* If you look carefully at Greygnarl in ''Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2'', someone wearing the Dragon warrior armour is riding him. It is most likely a reference to the Hero of ''Dragon Quest IX''.

 

Greygnarl appears as a S-rank member of the [[Dragon family]] as part of the limited ''Dragon Quest IX'' event, appearing on his own banner alongside [[Axolhotl]]. He can participate in [[Stella|Stella's]] Battle Road as a party member.
