The slime is known for its onion or rain droplet shape, round eyes, and goofy, toothless smile; the latter two traits having become the ones shared amongst nearly all their [[Slime family|slippery siblings]]. Slimes in the ''Dragon Quest'' series are a far cry from the congealed blobs of unmentionable substances found in Western RPGs, being sentient little goobers just as capable of speech and expression as a [[human]] is. In some games slimes have been shown to be capable of co-habitation with people, as in [[Lanson]] or the [[Shrine of Revelations]], and some have even been domesticated into pets. These friendlier slimes almost always introduce themselves with the line "I'm not a bad slime, really!", which as since become a catchphrase. | |||
Beginning with the 2005 localization standard created by [[Richard Honeywood]], all slimes have a certain verbal tic of replacing certain words and syllables with similar, 'slimier' ones, such as saying ''goo'' instead of ''good'', ''gooman'' instead of ''human'', and ''slime'' instead of ''time'', to give just a few (or goo) examples. | |||
Slimes are typically the weakest enemies in every game, having no special abilities and being easily disposed of, and likely the first monster the player ever [[encounter]]s in a battle. However, starting with {{IV}}, there will often be [[Slime (amalgoomated)|stronger slimes]] that can call on others of their kind; they may form a [[king slime]] when eight gather and starting in {{IX}} three slimes may join to form the [[slime stack]]. Though weak when fought in the wild, a recurring theme throughout the main games and the ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters (series)|Dragon Quest Monsters]]'' spin-off series is that slimes can amass incredible power when made into allies and given the chance to realize their potential. | |||

|description= Gorgeous globs of blue goo. Though they often appear as the first obstacle an aspiring adventurer must overcome, in truth they can be quickly squished using one's bare hands-hardly an obstacle at all. Waving an unidentified wand at a slime is a relatively low-risk way of working out what it does. Even if it turns out to be a copy cane, having to deal with two slimes is hardly the end of the world. | |||
