'''Holy water''', (also known as '''fairy water''' or '''repellent'''), is a repellent in the ''Dragon Quest'' series. It is used to avoid random encounters, simulating the [[Holy Protection]] spell. In ''[[Dragon Quest IV]]'', it can be used to give minor damage to monsters in battle.  In ''[[Dragon Quest IX]]'', its function was altered slightly to simulate the [[Vanish]] ability.
'''Holy water''' is a monster repellent in the ''Dragon Quest'' series. It is used to avoid random encounters, simulating the [[Holy Protection]] spell. Beginning with ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', it can be also used to deal minor damage to monsters by throwing a vial at them in battle.  From ''[[Dragon Quest IX]]'' onwards its function was altered slightly to simulate the [[Vanish]] ability due to the removal of random encounters.

Holy water bottles can be crafted in the [[Tantegel#Dragon Quest Builders|final chapter]] and in [[Terra Incognita|free play mode]] in the Diviner's alter using pure water.
It's primary use is for [[Purification|purifying]] the cursed land of Tantegel. By doing so, circular areas of 9x9 blocks can be restored to their former glory. Purification is key to obtaining certain materials needed to craft new block types, items and equipment.
Aside from it's main use, the holy water can be used to craft other items like the Sheen salts -that remove cursed equipment- and the Yggdrasil Essence -which revives the player instantaneously if they had it in their inventory-.
==={{DQTreasures}}===
