Japanese name ピピン

Title Gothan Soldier
Class Soldier
Race Human
Age Late Teens

Tuppence (ピピン Pippin) is a character and eligible party member in Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride. A soldier of Gotha, he is able to join the party during the third generation.

Appearance and Personality[edit]

Tuppence is garbed in the traditional uniform of Gothan guards, though his in-game sprite is slightly different to distinguish himself from the NPCs.

Despite his youth, Tuppence bears a considerable sense of duty to his home land, and a keen understanding of the high costs of peace. When speaking to him as a young boy, he is adamant to join the Gothan guard as soon as possible. As a young adult, Tuppence is considerably more easy-going in terms of personality, but is by no means a layabout. He is eager to serve as his king's body guard during the party's travels, and relishes the opportunity to see the world.

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride[edit]

Tuppence first appears as a young boy in the second generation of the game, whose mother runs the Gotha inn. He looks up to his father, Thruppence, and wants to follow in his footsteps as a castle guard. When the Hero returns in the third generation, Tuppence can be found on the ground floor of Gotha castle, and can be spoken to to add him to the roster of human party members at Patty's Party Planning Place. Although he is the sole human party member who cannot use any magic at all, Tuppence possesses excellent physical stats and has access to some of the best equipment available, making him similar in function to Ragnar McRyan in the previous installment.

Interestingly, Tuppence did not appear in the game's ending sequence during the original 16-bit finale. This was rectified with the PlayStation 2 remake, where he replaces one of the generic guards attending the celebration within the castle and receives his own dialogue.

Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation[edit]

Tuppence cameos in the Nintendo DS remake and the phone port of the game. He serves as the town guard of Reaper's Peak when the player selects the version of the town based on the far distant future of Dragon Quest V.


Trivia[edit]

  • Party Chat reveals Tuppence is a bit of a flirt and is rather eager to find a bride - even among the faeries of Faerie Lea.
  • Although he was not depicted as such originally, Tuppence's artwork and sprites show him to be left-handed.
