Manoza is a castle town in the overworld of Dragon Quest III.

It corresponds to Brazil's placement in South America in the real world, and is surrounded by impassable mountains and can only be breached via the Wayfarer's Chapel teleportal or by Ramia.

AppearancesEdit

Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of SalvationEdit

The Hero's first arrival in Manoza is a grim one, with a funeral being held for a man named Breno. Speaking to the people gathered, the party learns that he was put to death for no more than just speaking ill of the King. The regent has said to have been very kind-hearted and considerate to his subjects in the recent past, but has all of a sudden become a tyrannical despot who rules with an iron fist. The villagers are distraught, with some families willing to risk the dangers of the wild just to escape living in fear of being put to death every waking moment. The world-famous swordsman Simão was banished by the king as well, sentenced to life in prison in the hellish Shrine of Shackles

Upon entering the castle, the party will see that the staff is walking on the same eggshells that the normal citizens are. Guards obey needlessly cruel orders, kitchen staff prepare disgusting meals of bat wings and lizard tails, and dancing girls are forced to perform for hours on end in the throne room even while the King slumbers upstairs. Upon speaking to the dictator, the King will declare that he doesn't like the look of the Hero and has the party thrown into the dungeon. Fortunately, the guards play dumb and allow the Hero to escape through the secret tunnel below the castle, and here the real king is found.

The true King explains that Manoza has been taken over by a Boss troll who is impersonating him via his stolen Mod Rod. The heroes must retrieve the Ra's Mirror from the Manoza Cave in the southeast and use it on the impostor while he sleeps in order to reveal his true identity.

The troll is stupid enough to sleep without guards posted, allowing the Hero to slip into the chamber easily.

Upon the deceiver's death, the country declares that the Hero is nothing short of the savior of the land and peace is restored.

Dragon Quest III HD-2D RemakeEdit

Manoza remains unchanged from previous versions of the game, though somber music will play until the boss troll is killed. Said brute also explicitly states his allegiance to Baramos, pinning the kingdom's suffering on the Archfiend. The Son of Simão now has a distinct sprite of his own, and will have special dialogue once Baramos is killed.
