The '''merman''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest III}}. | |||
It is a monstrous fish man that menaces seafaring adventurers. | |||
==Characteristics== | |||
Mermen are nightmarish twists on old sailor tales of [[Mermaid|beautiful women]] living in the depths of the ocean. Though just as sentient as humans are, [[Aquatic family|mermen]] are ruthless savages who shred their sea-faring prey to bits with razor sharp claws. They has a tendency to make their opponents more vulnerable by casting '''[[Sap]]''' and/or '''[[Kasap]]'''. | |||
