The Balhib is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in Dragon Quest V, it is a winged, centaur-like monster armed with an axe and brilliant, golden skin.

Characteristics[edit]

Balhibs are absurd parodies of the classic centaur, having a reptilian lower half that terminates in a long tail and a back covered by two bat wings. Their upper body is that of a muscular older man with a tall pair of horns, a wild mane of long purple hair, and a bushy mustache and eyebrows. They are usually portrayed as powerful monsters, having many strengths granted to them. As indicated by their original names, they are apparently made of gold and will drop a very large sum when defeated.

Introduced as a monster found around the end of the game in places such as Talon Tower and Nadiria. They have a large amount of HP, can deliver strong physical attacks, and cast Kaswoosh on the player's party. The amount of gold they drop is usually worth the risk of fighting them, though.

Balhibs only appear as a boss in this entry, being faced from 1.3 onwards.

Balhib appears as an A-rank monster of the Inorganic family as part of the Dragon Quest V event, appearing alongside Grandmaster Nimzo on his banner. It can participate in Slon the Rook's Battle Road as a party member. The balhib could eventually be scouted from any limited banner, as well.
