Hero's Daughter (Dragon Quest V): Difference between revisions

[[Hero (Dragon Quest V)|The Hero]]'s daughter is the [[Hero's Son (Dragon Quest V)|legendary hero]]'s twin sister in [[Dragon Quest V]]. She is eight years old at the beginning of the third generation and 10 at the game's finale.

In English her default name is '''Madchen'''. In Japanese her default names are '''Annie''' (アニー) on the SNES and '''Tabatha''' (タバサ) on the DS. In the ''[[Dragon Quest V CD Theater|CD Theater]]'' audio drama and official novelizations, her name is '''Poppy''' (ポピー) .

Madchen is the more focused and serious of the twins, but is just as prone to bouts of childish glee and wonderment as her brother is. She has the extra-sensory ability to read the emotions of animals and monsters, making her sympathetic to the friendlier monsters that suffer the association of their evil brethren and wishes there was a way for humans and monsters to live alongside one another as her father's tamed monsters do in [[Gotha]]. Though normally mature for her age, Madchen will not hesitate to ask her father to hold her hand when she is upset or frightened. Though she won't admit it, Madchen is a little jealous of her brother's status as the legendary hero and has a hard time seeing what "all the fuss is about" as she sees Parry as her brother first and world savior second.

Madchen was born with her twin brother in the castle town of [[Gotha]] shortly before his father was coronated as the king. However, their mother [[Bianca]]/[[Nera]]/[[Debora]] was abducted by monsters during a rite of passage ceremony off the castle grounds and their father went missing searching for his bride. Her nursemaid's quick thinking and hiding the twins under their parents' bed was the only thing that saved them from being abducted along with their mother. Bereft of their parents, the siblings were raised by their remaining extended family and Sancho.

 

Eight years later Madchen, along with her brother and [[Sancho]], finally located their petrified father after much searching. Using the [[Stolos' staff]], she was able to restore him to life. With the hero recuperated, the twins journeyed with their father in search of their missing mother for a further two years. After rescuing their mother in [[Crocodilopolis]], she traveled with his father, mother, and brother into the underworld of [[Nadiria]] in search of his grandmother, [[Madalena]].

*There is a persistent misconception that Madchen can recruit monsters like her father. This is false and was likely spread due to the fact that the hero can recruit monsters even while dead or in the wagon, and the in-game dialogue that describes the lass as being fond of monsters and able to understand the feelings of animals.
