Marquis de Léon: Difference between revisions

He controls the [[Palais de Léon]], in the form of a lion {{MFamilies}}, with four arms and four legs.

Marquis de Léon is a lion-like {{MFamilies}} with the ability to move twice per round, casting [[Sizzle]] and breathing frost. He must be fought twice, once each in the fourth and fifth chapters. It is supposed to be impossible to defeat him in {{DQ4 Chapter 4}}; if he is defeated in the {{Famicom}}/{{NES}} Version, the battle will repeat until the player loses, while in the remakes, the game will carry on as if though the player lost. Marquis de Léon will use [[Fullheal]] if enough damage is done to him to make it more difficult to defeat him in this unwinnable battle.

Not much is known about him as a [[human]], although it is implied that he struck a deal with [[Psaro the Manslayer]] which led to him and his entire kingdom being brainwashed into servitude (likely a result of naivety and lack of common sense). As a monster, Marquis de Léon was a brutal tyrant, striking the fear of all citizens in not only his kingdom but the entire continent. It is known that several unfortunate citizens were locked up in prison simply for displeasing him. While he worked alongside [[Balzack]], the two did not appear to work very well together, as the Marquis admonished the latter for losing a battle and sent him away to another [[Zamoksva|kingdom]] when given the chance. When [[Meena Mahabala|two of]] [[Maya Mahabala|his prisoners]] escaped prison and fled the continent, Marquis de Léon no longer allowed any form of immigration off the continent by banning all [[ship]] transportations.

Once the prince of [[Palais de Léon]] and the son of the previous king, Marquis de Léon is now a servant of [[Psaro the Manslayer]]. Having used the [[Secret of Evolution]] to transform into a lion-like {{MFamilies}}, he imprisoned his father and took the throne for himself, claiming that his father passed away.

Marquis de Léon's fate differs between the originals and the remakes. In the {{NES}} version, he dies after his defeat. In the remakes, he turns back to his [[human]] form, having no memory of his servitude to {{Psaro B}}. This implies that he was brainwashed into serving the Master of Monsters rather than through his own free will. According to an {{NPC}} in [[Havre Léon]], the prince made a deal with the devil in exchange for his soul, which may be the cause of his mind-control. Upon his defeat, the entire kingdom wake up from a trance, meaning that everyone was under {{Psaro B}}'s spell rather than just the Marquis.
