Although they do not appear in {{I}} or {{II}}, Erdrick is mentioned heavily in the game dialog and many items bear their name. |

| '''Erdrick''' (ロト ''Roto''), also known as '''Loto''' or '''Roto''', is a recurring legendary hero from the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series, and specifically the playable character of ''[[Dragon Quest III]]''. The first three ''[[Dragon Quest]]'' games are called the "Erdrick Trilogy", as each relate to the character of Erdrick in some way. Although he/she does not appear in ''[[Dragon Quest]]'' or ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'', Erdrick is mentioned heavily in the game dialog and many items bear his/her name. The hero of ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', which takes place prior to the previous two games, receives the Erdrick title at the end of the adventure.
| | The name Erdrick is referenced in many of the later main {{Main Series}} games, as well as some spin-offs. Due to the name being exclusively used in association with the protagonist of {{III}} for several decades, the title was treated as the character's name by both fans and media. With the arrival of {{XI}}, this connection has steadily lessened and the term Erdrick has become a title of status independent of any particular character. |
|
| |
|
| Erdrick is referenced in many of the later main ''Dragon Quest'' games, as well as some spin-offs. The character of Erdrick is often representative of the early ''Dragon Quest'' games.
| | For the two characters who received this title, see: |
| | | *[[Hero (Dragon Quest III)]] |
| ==Background==
| | *[[Luminary (Dragon Quest XI)]] |
| In ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', the hero, who may be either male or female, departs from their home, [[Aliahan]], on their sixteenth birthday in order to follow in the footsteps of the brave warrior and the hero's father, [[Ortega]], to defeat the [[Demon Lord|archfiend]] [[Baramos]]. After defeating Baramos, the hero returns victorious to [[Aliahan]] only to be confronted by a new nemesis, [[Zoma]]. Taking up a new quest to defeat [[Zoma]], the hero travels through the [[Great Pit of Giaga]] to [[Alefgard]], which is sealed in darkness.
| |
| | |
| ==Appearance==
| |
| Although Erdrick can be either male or female, their appearances are practically identical. They are of average height and build, and they have incredibly spiky dark brown hair. The female Erdrick is slightly shorter than her male counterpart, her hair sticks up less, and she wears a pair of green earrings. Around their forehead is a silver circlet inlaid with a green gem. They wear a long blue tunic over a yellow long-sleeved shirt and pants, a pair of knee-length leather boots, leather gloves, and a long purple cloak around their necks. They wear a brown leather belt around their waist, and a scabbard strapped to their back. The hero wields a simple sword and a grey heater shield with an insignia of a dragon's head and two crossed swords on the front. The hero's outfit is slightly different in the Famicom illustrations, having a gold circlet with a blue gem around their forehead, and a dark blue cloak around their neck. He is seen carrying a cutlass and a round version of Erdrick's shield. There was also no illustrations of the female Erdrick until the Super Famicom remake. In certain illustrations, the female Erdrick's outfit is more feminized, making her blue tunic a strapless miniskirt, and giving her knee-length yellow stockings instead of pants, as well as elbow length yellow sleeves.

| ==Origins of Title== | | ==Origins of Title== |
| At the end of ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'' the King of [[Alefgard]] bestows upon the hero '''''the Order of Erdrick''''', the country’s highest honor reserved only for true heroes. This implies ''Erdrick'' is a title rather than the hero's actual name. The hero is referred to by this title in all references outside of Dragon Quest III. | | At the end of {{III}} the King of [[Alefgard]] bestows upon the hero '''''the Order of Erdrick''''', the country’s highest honor reserved only for true heroes. This implies that there have been several Erdricks throughout history. The hero is referred to by this title in all references outside of {{Dragon Quest III}}. |
| | |
| Attempting to name the hero "Erdrick" in ''Dragon Quest III'' for the NES will generate a message requesting the player to enter their real name; however, if a space is added at the end, the warning message will not be displayed and the game may be played with the hero being named "Erdrick ".
| |
| | |
| In the manga series, ''Dragon Quest: [[The Emblem of Roto]]'', as well as the novelization and the CD theater drama, the hero's real name is '''Arel''' (アレル). This adds to the implication that Erdrick/Roto is a title.
| |
| | |
| ==Lineage==
| |
| In ''[[Dragon Quest]]'', Erdrick was the ancestor of [[Hero (Dragon Quest)|the Hero]]. The hero follows in the footsteps of Erdrick to ultimately reach [[Charlock Castle]] and confront the [[Dragonlord]].
| |
| | |
| In ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'', the heroes are descendants of Erdrick, and also of the hero from ''[[Dragon Quest]]''.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', the origins of the hero Erdrick are revealed; therefore, the chronological order of the first three games is III, I, II.
| |
| | |
| Originally known as Erdrick to many North Americans, the hero is also known by two other names: Roto and Loto. In the original Japanese version games (i.e. [[Dragon Quest]]), Erdrick is known exclusively by the name '''Roto''', which is also used by some import gamers. Another romanization of the name is '''Loto''', which was used in place of Erdrick when [[Enix|Enix America, Inc.]] re-released ''Dragon Quest I, II, and III'' on the [[Game Boy]] Color. This was most likely used because the Japanese language does not distinguish between ''R'' and ''L''.
| |
| | |
| When ''[[Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies]]'' was released in North America and Europe, the name '''Erdrick''' was once again used to refer to the legendary hero of ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', effectively returning to the original English localization from the NES era.

| In all remakes of the game, the hero's attribute growth is determined by their [[List of personality types in Dragon Quest III|Personality]]. At the start of the game, the hero is asked a series of questions by a mysterious voice in the sky, culminating in a short scene in order to see just what type of person the hero is. There are 32 different personalities that can be assigned at the beginning, but it is possible to change it with the help of various books or accessories that can be found. The hero is a true jack-of-all-trades in any case, being able to fulfill a variety of different roles in combat, such as being a powerful physical attacker or dedicated healer. The hero is not able to change classes like other characters in the game. In the original NES version of the game, the hero must always be in the party until completing the game. In the remakes, this condition is removed after defeating Zoma.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Equipment==
| | Attempting to name the hero "Erdrick" in {{III}} for the {{NES}} will generate a message requesting the player to enter their real name; however, if a space is added at the end, the warning message will not be displayed and the game may be played with the hero being named "Erdrick ". The same restriction applies in the Japanese versions for Roto as well, both in kanji and hiragana. |
| The hero has access to a very wide range of both weapons, ranging from swords, spears, axes, as well as whips and boomerangs in the remakes. They are capable of being outfitted with the heaviest armour, shields, and helmets available. Erdrick is also the only character capable of using the legendary equipment, which will prove useful when fighting against [[Zoma]]. In the remake versions, the hero begins his journey equipped with a [[copper sword]] and [[wayfarer's clothes]].
| |
|
| |
|
| ===Weapons===
| | In the ending sequence of {{XI}}, the {{Luminary}} is bestowed the title of Erdrick for saving the land of Erdrea from [[Calasmos]]. As the game contains several homages to past titles, the connection of III and XI (if any) is up to player interpretation. |

| {{VersionTabs|NES|{{CharacterEquipmentList|header|title=Dragon Quest III|subtitle=NES|equipmentType=Shields}}
| | Erdrick is a term invented for the North American release of the original trilogy. In the original Japanese version games Erdrick is known exclusively by the name '''Roto'''--this is written in runes on the shield bearing the name in official art. Another romanization of the name is '''Loto''', which was used in place of Erdrick when [[Enix|Enix America, Inc.]] re-released ''Dragon Quest I, II, and III'' on the [[Game Boy]] Color. This was done due to the space constraints of the Game Boy's screen, with the "L" being chosen for unknown reasons. |
