Rubiss: Difference between revisions

|Roumaji=seirei rubisu <br> (the Spirit Rubis)

Rubiss aids the player under the guise of a common old woman, and at random intervals she will bless the Hero by fully restoring his {{HP}} after battle, voiding any {{MP}} costs for a brief period, and insuring that critical hits trigger much more often. In the finale of the final episode, She will be present in [[Tantegel]] castle in Her old woman disguise but reveal Herself when spoken to, thanking the player directly for saving [[Alefgard]]. Rubiss is voiced by [[Rika Matsumoto]] during these Soundlink segments of the game.

Rubiss is held prisoner on the top floor of the [[Tower of Rubiss]], having been over-powered by [[Zoma]] and displaced as ruling deity of [[Alefgard]]. The heroes must use the [[Faerie Flute]] in front of the statue there in order to free her. Her rescue by [[Erdrick]] in this time of need would not be soon forgotten.

The Goddess' is depicted with a sprite resembling those of the {{Faerie}}s, which would serve as the basis for her illustration in ''[[Dragon Quest of the Stars]]'' decades later.

Prior to the game's opening, Her influence upon the world is weakened by the [[Dragonlord]] sheathing the sky in darkness as [[Zoma]] once did. Only the Builder can hear Her voice throughout the game, and Her words cannot reach them at all in the final chapter of the game until a pious [[Princess Gwaelin|princess]]' prayers counter the malefic mist. Once the castle of [[Tantegel]] and the [[Erdrick Equipment|legendary arms]] are restored, Rubiss praises the Builder and declares their work complete--she states that She and the revived [[Alefgard]] will wait for a new hero to appear to slay the [[Dragonlord]]. When Her divine judgement is questioned, she reaffirms that the builder is forbidden from carrying out an assault on [[Dragonlord's Castle]] and ceases communicating with the player.

During the battle with fiend, Rubiss will intervene and counter the maniac's magical seal by teleporting the friends the builder has made along their journey into the fray to deliver materials, food, and [[Medicinal herb]]s before spiriting them away to safety. When the Builder proves victorious Rubiss admits She was mistaken, and thanks the little architect from the bottom of Her heart before musing that the [[human]] spirit is something beyond even Her reckoning.

Rubiss appeared in the later parts of the {{Dragon Quest III}} event. She explains to the player Her role in creating [[Alefgard]] and how [[Zoma]] sealed Her away. After defeating [[Zoma]], she thanks the player.  

Unlike Her {{Stars}} appearance, Rubiss's Walk design is not whited out, so it's easier to see how She looks like: She has blue-ish eyes, long and straight pink hair, pointy ears and big angel-like wings. She wears a white and purple dress, with orange accents. She wears some golden and blue jewelry, and carries an orb. This design is inspired by Her sprite in {{Dragon Quest III}} for the {{Super Famicom}}.
