The '''Servant of Darkness''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest VIII}}. | |||
It is a powerful, quadruple-armed undead warrior that serves a Demon Lord. | |||
==Characteristics== | |||
Servants of darkness are formerly powerful warriors that have been brought back as [[Undead family|skeleton]]s to serve evil. They have pitch-black bones and have two sets of arms, each wielding a deadly weapon. In their lower arms, they wield a pair of curved sabres, in their upper right arm a hand axe, and in their upper left arm a spiked club. The servants don black armour decorated with gold and a helmet with a tall pair of curved horns. They are able to perform violent slashing attacks with their weapons and breathe out intense flames, as well as freezing their foes solid with powerful ice magic. According to their bestiary description in {{X}}, the Servants of darkness work as chefs when they're off-duty, switching their weapons to kitchen knives. | |||

A Servant of darkness appears as a miniboss as the party escapes from the [[Black Citadel]], accompanied by a pair of [[Dancing flame]]s. Although it is able to resist many attacks, its {{HP}} is on par with most of the {{MFamilies}}s encountered in the [[Black Citadel|same dungeon]]. After dispatching the trio, the {{Party 8}} can find a stone monument that will fully restore their {{HP}} and {{MP}}. | |||

Servants of darkness can be encountered as normal enemies in the second [[bonus dungeon]], the [[Heavenly Dais]]. They have more {{HP}} than the one encountered at the [[Black Citadel]], but their {{Defence}} and {{Agility}} is lower. | |||
==={{DQ10}}=== | |||
Servants of darkness appear as normal enemies from 6.2 onward, being encountered in the Twilight of King Zedra, and are members of the [[Undead family]]. They are still able to perform violent slashing attacks in the form of [[Robochop]] and cast [[Kacrack]], while their [[Fire Breath]] has been upgraded to [[Scorch]]. | |||
