Shrinking violet (ひっこみじあん hikkomijian, translated as timid in the Game Boy Color version of Dragon Quest III) is a personality in the Dragon Quest III remakes, in Dragon Quest X, and in Dragon Quest: Monster Parade.

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation[edit]

"You are shy and retiring… A shrinking violet…

You fully intend to push yourself to the foreground, but somehow always find yourself at the back of the room…

And although you may dislike how others treat you, you never quite find the courage to speak out…

Naturally, you pale at the thought of meeting new people…

This is why you always fail to make an impact in the presence of others…

‘Oh! I didn't see you standing there!’ How many times have you heard these words…?

And when they are spoken, all you can do is blush and giggle…

But this is not the real you…

Deep in your heart, you want nothing more than to stand out from the crowd…

You are forever imagining doing something incredible… Something that will make people say ‘wow’…

But, shrinking violet that you are, you believe that you are incapable, and give up before you have even begun…

Such deeds are not beyond you, however… As with everything in life, you must acclimatise yourself slowly…

Taken one step at a time, no peak is insurmountable… You can grow accustomed to anything…

Do not attempt to achieve great things right away… Begin instead with the small things…

A whisper one day can grow to a shot the next… Ah, but please do not teach yourself to shout all the time…

That would merely be annoying…"
