== Appearance ==
'''Zoma''', Master Archfiend of the [[Alefgard|Dark World]], is the final villain in [[Enix America Corporation|Enix's]] ''[[Dragon Warrior III]]''. Confronted by the [[Erdrick|Hero of Aliahan]], Zoma was defeated, and a new day began.  
Zoma first appears during the celebrations following the defeat of Baramos. In the original game, this appearance is voice only, but is visual as well in the remake. Zoma threatens the inhabitants of the world of ''Dragon Quest III'', claiming he will soon control their world and plunge it into darkness as he did with Alefgard. In [[Dragon Quest Monsters ]], he resides deep inside the Room of Control, threatening Terry the same way he threatened people in ''Dragon Quest III.''


== Inside Charlock Castle ==
Zoma feeds on fear and despair, and is harmed by [[Ball of Light|bright light]] and all healing magics.
Zoma resides on the basement floor of the castle along with three other sub-bosses. He approaches and talks to the hero prior to allowing his three subordinates to fight the hero's party before him.  


Zoma has his own battle theme, a general standard for a final boss. Using the [[Orb of Light]] reduces Zoma's overall hit points, allowing him to be defeated much more easily. In the remake of ''Dragon Quest III'', Zoma's specialty music and primary color palette are not shown until after the Orb of Light is used. This color arrangement is the opposite of the one in the original game which made Zoma a blue color after using the Orb of Light.  
Zoma also appears in ''[[Dragon Warrior Monsters]]'', ''[[Dragon Warrior Monsters 2]]'', and ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker]]''.


== Defeat ==

Upon his defeat, Zoma's reign over the land of Alefgard ends and light returns to the outer world. The [[Pit of Gaia]] also closes up, sealing the hero and his party in Alefgard.
