Rose is a minor but important character in Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen. As an elf, she shed ruby tears and thus faced constant harassment from humans who wanted to add to their wealth. Ironically, as soon as the gems touched their hands they shattered, so all their work and misdeeds in kidnapping and beating Rose were for nothing after all.

Appearances

Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen

Psaro, a prominent demon in Nadiria, rescued Rose from evil humans and fell in love with the elf, and sought to protect her. To this end, he built a small fortress for her far away from human grasp, around which the town of Rosehill grew as others seeking refuge relocated, and installed a powerful watchman dubbed Sir Roseguardin to keep her safe in his absence. Psaro paid frequent visits to Rosehill in order to see Rose; he told her of his plans to destroy humanity to free the world for demons, and continued on with his mad ambitions in spite of her pleas for coexistence. His plans went against her kind and compassionate nature, but she could see only the good in Psaro and still hoped he might ultimately be dissuaded.

Before this ever had a chance of happening, Aamon secretly had Rose murdered, so that Psaro would be driven insane by her death and use the Secret of Evolution to become King of Hell, allowing Aamon, his closest retainer, to sneak in and eventually stage a coup and steal the title for himself.

Remake changes

In the remake of Dragon Quest IV, there is an additional chapter, in which the Hero uses an Yggdrasil flower to revive Rose from death. Rose is immensely grateful to the party for bringing her back to life, but urges that she travel with them to the heart of Nadiria so that she may save Psaro from himself. Her tears upon seeing the transformed Psaro reverse the effects of the Secret of Evolution, causing Psaro to repent his actions and allowing the two to start their lives together in new found peace.

Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation

Rose and Psaro appear in one of the three possible versions of Reaper's Peak in the DS and mobile phone versions of the game. She is sitting in the Hero's house across from Psaro, and is overjoyed to be with Psaro at last, and bursts into tears.

Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age

Rose appears in her tower as part of the second IV location players can visit through the Echo Chamber. Here, she is being chased by a cursed Sir Roseguardian, whom the player stops through battle. The flute of revelation was broken in the tussle, however, and a revelatree branch is needed to repair it. Once this task is completed, the elf is brought to tears by the player's charity.

Dragon Quest Walk

Rose appears as a quest giving NPC in the game and also has an equipment set based on her clothing. This marks the first game in which she has been illustrated by Akira Toriyama.
