==Etymology==
==Etymology==
* Drackmage is a portmanteau of Dracky and mage, which means 'magic user'; this species is the first in the line to use magic. Its other names, Magidrakee and WizDracky, also allude to this capacity.

* The Japanese name タホドラキー (tahodorakī) is actually a result of the limited Famicom/NES memory of the original ''Dragon Quest''. Due to this limited memory, not all the Japanese ''kana'' could be included, so Yujii Horii was required to alter タフドラキー (tafudorakī -- i.e. "tough-dracky") to タホドラキー, which could actually be spelled with the limited ''kana'' available.
